Current Hot Rod / Street Rod trends
Greg Myers replied to OldNYJim's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Many trends take up ideas that were just NOT popular back in the day. Maybe the "Dare to be different" thing came from this? I do see cars being hot rodded today that just wouldn't be looked at twice "Back in the Day". i.e. fourdoors. Off year ( from a traditional Model A, Deuce, "40 Ford perspective) body styles, many of which have shown up in plastic. When i was in high school, no one would have looked at a '37 as rodding material. Much different today as the availability of the "Traditional" rods has diminished. -
Current Hot Rod / Street Rod trends
Greg Myers replied to OldNYJim's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I have observed trends following race cars, customs and things that the "Trendsetters" do just to be different. The race car thing was interesting, seeing it peak at the " Street Freak, Prostreet" style. There have been many lately that just seem to follow the Monkey example. -

I read in Hot Rod Magazine a long while ago that "Hot Rodding" was pretty much a "Monkey see, monkey do " kind of thing, with everyone just jumping on the latest trend. Having been in this hobby for many years i find this true. -

Is Your Model Car Club on Lockdown
Greg Myers replied to Joe Thomas's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Yes , Moonlight Modelers of Phoenix Arizona is down only after a vote from the members was called for. I was chastised for suggesting we not meet. , saying i was "not showing some respect for the opinions of others" " i personally feel the health risk is low at this time" really ? "Once again stirring the pot and breeding division in the ranks." Some people just don't see the seriousness of our situation. -

Greg Myers replied to Dave Ambrose's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Failing to realize this is a forum. You have the ability to chose the threads and post you read, look at and respond to. The COVID19 virus effects us all and some just might want to know how others here cope with this situation. -

Resin, or test your modeling skills and slice the front off the ubiquitous Monogram '30 Coupe and attach the front portion from any of their '29 pick ups,
