Plastic ? Just build an engine out of plastic and see how fast it will go just turning it over with a starter before it melts from the heat generated from friction.

I don't know, what's on the roof ?

I've seen milk crates, wooden boxes, and lawn chairs, none of which were bolted down. Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you I taught High School Auto shop here in Arizona. Best one was the '66 Chevell that was jacked up to look like a ,who knows what. Looked pretty good until he got it on the lift and most of the 2x4's fell out of the springs.

Yeah, I didn't get to that part of the post. Still having a time learning how to use all this "new" stuff on the board. Just when I thought I had mastered it all. I actually had two brothers in-law that attended. They were both quite into drag racing at the time. They both knew and helped out Lyle Fisher and Red Greth on their speed sport roadster.

"The race in this clip was the 1963 Bakersfield Fuel and Gas Nationals. I know because I was there. Art Malone won top fuel, he is the yellow car with the newspaper mailbox for an injector scoop. The March Meet did not have stock cars except Factory Experimental and had over 80 top fuel dragsters and 400 cars - a lot considering no stockers." he was there ?

32 Ford Orange Crate 32 Ford Street Rod 'Vert Wouldn't be in the same series would they. No ARDUNs in any of these ?

I'm with ya Derrick.

Thanks. Let's muddy the waters some more. What's missing ? Where should they go next? Is the old AMT '34 pick up tired and worn out? Is it time for a '32 ?

Is there a 3 window and a five window ? What are the engine options in each kit ? Wheels ?

Ah some one else missed it too.You're right Bill it did add to the tidiness of a post.
