You could very well be correct.

Great Work so far!

Mike, glad you have committed to doing more work on the Tractor. And, when you paint it is pretty much impossible to "over-weather" it.

Ah, but they may not have it. Which is why this kit was tooled up in the first place.

That is a Beautiful Survivor, Snake. I'd Start hunting the 'bay for another kit, and save this one.

I've always wanted to stuff a pair of the kit's Hemis into the Side by Side dragster. It is a pretty neat little kit, and the Fiat is nice. Good Luck with your builds!

The Fiat has always been that way , Stef. Nice Kit, with many options.

I like the 65 GTO, and the 22" Eagle.

Great Wheels, Great Project! I hope you can at least get it all togerher, even if it never gets painted.

Fantastic Wheels. Thanks for the Helpful Photos from Hobby Lobby & Joanns. I might try to get a packet of those LaMode Gears. Perfect for Doodlebugs. I look forward to seeing what is next!

Windows look great!

Welcome to our happy group.

Neat Build, Chuck! Your Builds always inspire.

Looks Cool! I've seen a couple of these kits built as rods in the last 30 years. Yours has a different vibe, as the others I've seen did not retain the Merc Engine. Good Luck.

That is a great tip, Jon. Thanks!

Leather Cone Clutches were an art form to get correct, according to my friend. He strongly disliked them. I wish I knew more. You might try joining the H.A.M.B Hot Rod forum. There is a huge pool of knowledge there, and somebody may know. There might be some info in old Issues of the Horseless Carriage Club of America (HCCA) Magazines, but I have no library of them to look at.

Looks like a Revell Parts Pack kit. Which is what it is. No More, No Less. They will sell well to those who know what they are. Many newcomers to the hobby will buy and be disappointed.

Possible Quik&Dirty solution to the engine problem in the Ford Truck. Scrounge an older style 'extra' Oil Bath Air Cleaner from a Moebius Ford kit. Many of them have a choice of Air Cleaners. Cut of two of the triple carbs (leave the center one) and file the Manifold flatter on the nds where the old carbs were. Not Great, but perhaps good enough for a Shelf Model. Or There is my plan. Assemble and paint the engine block and oil pan, the heads, exhaust manifolds, and the Fan/Belt parts, install the motor. Glue the hood shut. Curbside using only the minimum of parts.

How goes the Old Pro, Anthony? Is it finished yet?

His articles on Customs in SAE were always great! Thanks for sharing his site!

My other interest is Firearms. Cannot believe the types of people on Firearms forums. Just one Topic Starter. 9mm vs .45 Cal. That one can end friendships. I'm new at the hobby, so I read a lot and say little. That said, there are genuinely nice folks in all hobbies.

The "Best Technique" is the one you have mastered, that consistently gives "you" results you are happy with. Much of this hobby consists of figuring out which skill sets you can use to get the results you want.

That would be very nice if it did.

But, it looks like all the clear parts are in the kit. Even the Domes for the old Sheriff's Blazer are there.

This ^^^ He has gotten the right of it for many buyers.
