Yes stock or Hot Rod, like em all

There it is. You're a better finder than I am.?

But NO X-Acto with wooden ball end

I find this long lived discussion SBC in a Ford, Flatheads Forever et,al. No different than Brand loyalty. I studied this in my years as a high school auto shop teacher. What I saw with most brands other than the more popular brands, and sometimes even them, was brand loyalty was pretty much dictated by convenience. Why do you drive such and such? "I got it from my grampa", " My neighbor had it for sale". "It was the cheapest thing i could afford". When fiscal situations changed usually the brand did too. Convenience and availability. now Fit must be considered as well. Those small block Ford V-8's are rather long and the Y blocks kind of heavy

As Tom pointed out many Blue Beetle / Blue Bandito '29 Pick up parts will interchange.

Not much is ever said about these offerings in a smaller scale.

All good stuff

My 1:1 '60 El Camino had two

Nothing to it. It's all straight lines

Yes it can.

Nice thread. Last entry 2013 all of the listed sources sites are dead.

A ball end pin vise Offers the user a vise that is more comfortable to use than conventional hex head vises. The rounded head fits comfortably into the palm of one's hand making it much easier to drill, ream or twist. X-Acto used to have some like this but i couldn't find any on line.

I have used the white glue to success. However I'm going to try these next. Thanks Leslie

These early release '34 & '36 Ford coupe kits from Monogram as well as their first 1940 Ford pick up had some very nice stock parts, engines in particular. I wonder what it would take to restore the molds to give us the great kits that they first were? Of course, also wondering who ended up with the molds. Here's hope it was Atlantis, someone that really cares about the hobby.

Not even for a few of us old Monogram fans here ?

Why didn't Monogram ever do anything with their 1930 Model A coupe, other than a Cabriolet and a very early "Old School" hop up roadster? It seems as popular as the Model A coupe has been in the hot rod community this would have been an easy decision. With the speed parts available in their last 1930 Woody issue they had a pretty good start.

Are you only going to use single tail lights ? Looks like there is room for dual

Still the pickings are slim compared to the early AMT line up. Three twos, chrome intake and heads on a flat head, Three twos or six twos on a Chevy small block with some of the nicest finned aluminum valve covers And a great Pontiac with Six twos or injection' AMT has the numbers but these are much better detailed

and i was just getting ready to bust open a factory sealed kit ?

Nice to be back on track ☺️

Nice one Geno. where did the Chevy lights come from ?
