  1. There were a myriad of different wheel center treatments, Chrome Center Caps sometimes called Spyder Caps. and Bullet Hub Caps ( not FULL wheel covers) as well Last but not least the fake Knockoff covers

  3. Thanks for the AMT Double Dragster and the 1925 Model " T " Ford
  4. Funny, these lists kinda say who we are. Put me down for : 12 O'Clock High Band of Brothers Blazing Saddles Under Siege The Longest Day
  5. Movie wisdom, some movies you can watch over and over and still see new stuff. So true Austin.
  6. and after reading through all of this I still feel the same way. " the law simply supplies the basis for complex word-games that have little to do with truth and justice", allowing people to "Blame" someone.
  7. What licensing issues ?
  8. Of course, I probably started it. First day in shop we go over all the safety equipment and rules. The big industrial "Foot operated" sink being very important for cleaning dirt or possible acid spills. Of course there are always those fooling around in the back of the class that usually miss a few things. "Sink? Big deal , wash yer hands." So a few days into shop a student comes up and tells me there's something wrong with the sink. It wont turn on. I walk over and watch as he shows me how, no mater how he turns the knobs on top of the soap dispenser, the water wont come out. I walk up, reach over and turn the same soap dispenser "fill" knobs while at the same time stepping on the foot treadle , WATER. "You must be doing it wrong." Of course other, wiser students, have gathered to watch as he tries a few more times with the mirth of the others.
  9. Teaching High School auto shop the pranks never ended. First up my adage: " Is that soda you're drinking? You know the rule." Student: " What? I gotta bring enough for the whole class?" " No. just one for me." Well they got me on that one once( only takes one time). In shop, put MY soda down working with some students, got busy, got thirsty, turned around, grabbed MY soda and took a big swig, Pffffft. "YUCK!! What was that?" "Water, Mr. Myers. We emptied your soda and cleaned out the can and filled it back up with WATER." Gottcha.
  10. Yeah, nothing like a factory fresh flip front.
  11. I think you must realize with any "Flip Nose" "Dragster" kit , they are replicating a real life situation where the actual parts you are having trouble with were not original factory fit pieces ( although many times 'factory fit' left a lot to be desired) but copies made from a just emerging fiberglass industry and thus had many 1:1 fit issues as well. Well, at least that's one way to look at it.
  12. a picture would be worth a 1000 words, oh wait. Arts probably working on his thesis as we speak.
  13. I've done this one a few times. The hose clamp is the key to success, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HejHNaNqhLw
  14. It's party time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_SjD0TWxaF0 and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ht35P7GnvuQ
  15. Nothing like a little fun with exhaust pipes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RU3wnhqx_As
  16. Shocking! The old charged up ignition capacitor left on the work bench.
  17. This Criminal Court / Civil Court thing seems like double jeopardy to me.
