Ford "Cammer" Motor Information wanted.
stavanzer replied to stavanzer's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Thanks, Hakan, Tim, Mark, Jesse, Ace & Lee. You have given me much to digest. -
'66 Ford Galaxie '7-Litre' 1/25, comments please?
stavanzer replied to fiatboy's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
I wonder what happened to LFG? I know he stopped building for a while, but came back. I hope he is okay. -
Yeah, it is very hard to find one in gook, stock condition. So many have been 'Customed' (poorly in most cases) that the good ones are rare.

There was a book about those Sears Houses. I wanted it, but never got it. I should track it back down again.

Which kit has the best "Cammer: for street use. I know that the motor got kitted a few times, and that the Ohio George '33 Willis has a blown version, but I'd like one for a street car. I know Tim Boyd did a photo comparison in Scale Auto a few years ago, but I no longer have the back issues to dig thru to find int. Any body have a copy of that they could scan here? Other wise, where would I get a decent copy of the engine. I do not mind having to purchase a couple kits if I need to to kit bash a good engine. Thanks, Alan

Mike, is this what you want? https://www.ebay.com/itm/265908513804?hash=item3de961ec0c:g:UwsAAOSweIRiYJ-H He has several styles of headers. I've bought a lot of parts from him in the last few years, but no resin. He was fas and fair. I'd order from him again.

Man, they have disappeared around here! And when you do find them, they are worn out annd expensive.

Neat Build, of a seldom seen kit. -
Very Sharp Build. In your hands, you show how good this kit really is.

Plaskit is very expensive in my experience. I have never used them but the prices were too much for my budget. -
According to Wikipedia, Bandit drives a 1973 or 74 Kenworth W900 in the Movie. I'm not up enough on trucks to know much about older trucks. What kit would be suitable to replicate his rig? And the Gold Trim Decals. Are they in any factory boxing of a kit, or are they strictly aftermarket? Thanks!

MPC 1981 Chevy Stepside Pickup Sod Buster (1:25 SCALE)
stavanzer replied to av405's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
I'll be buying more than one kit. This is great. Now, could we get the 2wd, Longbed, please? There is a huge market for a Longbed truck. Would be even better with a Pre-'81 Grille. Another Suggestion. Give us some 8 Lug 3/4 Ton, or One Tone wheels, and maybe pair it with a trailer, something Like the Mod Stock Hauler, only with a Newer Truck. The Wagon Wheels are nice, but Stock Steelies would be great , as well. Thanks for the Arm Twisting to get this kit made! I'm sure it will sell well. I can already see Cross-kitting possibilities with the Deserter. -

I learned how to drive a Model T
stavanzer replied to 89AKurt's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
A 1926 Model T Speedster was my daily driver for about 2 years, from 1990-1991, until it was stolen. A hoot to drive everyday. At least in California, a Speedster is so light, it won't trip the sensors in some left turn lanes. I had to try to hit the middle of some lanes to trigger the lighter motorcycle pad. Was not every light though. Just a few. Glad you learned to drive one. They are fun once you get the hang of it! -
Decals Look Great! Has the right stance, too!

Chris, you didn't get a screen capture of the OG Decal sheet, did you? It looks huge for a Sixties Vintage kit. I wonder how much of it will translate into the new decals? -
You could very well be correct.
