Got an e-mail from my son on the Charger and it got me thinking the same thing, see you there ?

I wonder what the Indian arrow in the Crosley logo signifys ?

Kinda like one of those kids puzzles, "Find the goofs in this picture".

Back on topic (PM works great) There's a lot of new stuff that would be intersting to know when it will show up. I'm in line for the Rat Roaster too.

That's what it's all about. All the model info you can digest. Gone are the days of constantly checking with your local hobby shop to see what's new. You never knew if something new was coming in the next day or the next week. Then you'd go to a show and see something you'd never seen before and wonder how you missed it. Not any more. Stay tuned for all the model news, right here.

WOW ! Pete, I think you've found a new home, welcome, and thanks for bringing all yer stuff ,some really great tips, pic's, and models.

I guess anything about the DOH or GL is fare game .

OK, so the Duke boys find an old dirt track car and make the "General". What if . . . They started in 1966, '67, '68? WIT (What If They) went drag racing in the stock classes? WIT made a funny car? Maybe that MPC kit ain't too far off. Maybe they moved up to a Charger 500. and then a Daytona? Spose they tried a Road Runner ? a Superbird? WIT went to Bonniville ? movin' on up , a '70 Charger? a '71, '72, '73 ? Now WIT got into NASCAR now and were running a bunch of cars in a team? Just look at all the generals they could pick from: Stonewall Jaskson,J.E.B. Stuart, James Longstreet, Geo. Picket? General Grant? Oooops! that would have to be a Ford, or a Chevy. Custer, Sherman ? I think that MPC 1/16th General Lee with all the NASCAR acrudaments fits right in.

Then what's the point ?

You should drive one. My son has one and Kattie bar the door.

http://blog.hemmings.com/index.php/2012/01/04/fireball-roberts-1957-ford-headed-to-auction/?refer=news Tried to post this on another board and then the whole thread was deleated.

OK, I was a little bit hasty on the "no pollution" thing. Actually I got that from the overlly enthusiactic email. I hope you all remember the 50mpg carburetor of days gone by, you know, the one the big oil companys bought up so you couldn't buy one? http://www.fireballroberts.com/Fish_Story.htm

Clown cars, they're all clown cars.

15 inchers ?

This is what I think of when you say kidney beans:

. . . and Tony Nancy's , 22jr ?

OK, all you experts out there, what does the jr. refer to? 22jr I don't know.

WOW! Now that's how to build 'em.

Gassers with white walls, looking good.

You're going to Paris and you're wasting your time looking for hobby shops?
