That's pretty darn cool!

Sounds like a good change!

I only drive Downtown for the Auto Show any more, I've taken a train down to go the The Museum of Science and Industry and the cab ride from the train station to there was........not for the faint of heard..... Cab ride back wasn't so bad, both were pricy though, for just a day trip like that it would be cheaper to drive the Jeep out, pay to park it, drive home........and that includes getting lost going into the city or heading back out while paying $4 a gallon for gas!

When I heard him say he drives in in Downtown Chicago, I thought he was awful brave!

Hey Harry, did you know that there is one of those that was locally owned?

Well, they do say that everybody in the world has a twin

Got an easy answer for the age thing, would you believe some people were as old as, or as mature a that age they claimed to be by looking at what they post on line and their general behavior on line? I've seen adults throw bigger temper tantrums than some kids when I worked the service desk at Toy's "R" Us if you refused to refund them the money the spent on something we didn't even sell.

It is a Mouse Motor.

Wow, this thing is going to be wild by the time it's done!

I want to take a look at the Foose kits when we get them in at work, I'm hoping to see some other change along the lines of what had been done to the '64-'65 GM Pickups to lower those as an option. I find it funny that the truck kits didn't sell, yet they seem to have no problems re-issuing those kits yet haven't updated at least the Silverado to the later ('03-'06) nose assembly or at least converted the VTS Ram to a conventional Dodge Ram, neither conversion to the tooling should be all that bad if they can make 3 Versions of the second gen Charger, or a whole basket full of '66-'67 B-Body Mopars, '64.5-'66 and '67-'68 Mustangs, a dozen different '69 Camaros, and a huge selection of Tri-5 Chevys from a few basic kits. Speaking of the Daytona, I'm very happy to see that '69 Daytona come back, I want to do a box flair build with that and a '68 Charger I already have on hand.......just need to get my hands on two Viper ACR kits then too.......

H.R. Giger!? That explains how those turned out so horrible working!

It is weird how much that toy looks like the Keaton era Batmobile, kinda have to wonder if it inspired the movie car. As far as favorite Batmobiles go, the Keaton movie car, the original Animated Series (cartoon from the 90's) car, and the Tumbler are probably my 3 favorite Batmobiles and in that order too.

You've got to be kidding!? We can't keep them in stock and most of the time they're gone before I can get my own copy, I've already had somebody calling to see if the new one was in yet!

I've got a Magnaflow 2.5" in and out oval on Cherokee with a chopped open airbox and K&N panel filter and it does sound good behind that big 4.0l I-6, Wouldn't mind the new Corsa/MOPAR cat back for the Pentastar equipped Avenger and 200 on mine, it does.sound goooood in the video clips I've seen.

Looking good so far!

That would be pretty cool! Aren't the '64-'65 truck's chassis' pretty similar to the '68-'72 truck's? If that's the case, couldn't they base a Copperhead (as well as any stock trucks of that generation) on the same chassis' used under the '64-'65 kit?

Define modern. I've seen a few rat rods that are using more recent small block Chevy and Ford truck motors that have had their EFI systems pulled for carbs, some even using more modern US and Japanese 4 cylinders (also truck sourced) for their rat rods.

Am I seeing the Orange Crate parked in front of that dealership? What's weird about this one, a couple summers ago there was a "working girl" (yea, that kind) that stopped in the store to look around and after she left the store, she walked across the lot and got into an older Cadillac limo. I showed these pics to a coworker who happened to be working that night too and immeadiatly recognized this Caddy as being very similar to the Caddy that working girl got into O-o

Wow, and I thought this was out there

Some of us prefer to do things for fun, the cartoonish subjects fall right into that catagory, as do rat rods and "inspired by" builds. In years past Chuck Most and I both built Revell's '05 Impala Cop Car into rat rod-ish cars several years apart. I built mine for fun and for something different and Chuck's was inspired 1/1 Buick Century of the same generation that he saw in front of a Vet's office. I'd be surprised that if we parked the two on a contest table and not have them get criticized by more serious modelers, hot roders, ect

Oh, That who he is?! Unless it's the Sox, I could care less about baseball........let me amend that, unless it's the Sox, Bears, Bulls, Blackhawks, or Iowas State University, I could care less about sports that don't have the word motor in it.

I actually know this one!

We had it playing on the TV at the store, but we were busy enough that we didn't really watch it. Not sure if any customers stopped and watched any of it.

With the exception of Saturday (today now I guess), working. Closed Friday, work all day Sunday and were closing early Monday, so I'll be working all day then too. My 200 needs a bath again pretty bad (I swear it's been raining mud around here lately ) so I make get it cleaned up tomorrow and perhaps trying a tank full of E-85 in it. Took my Jeep to a coin op car wash Thursday and spent $6 in quarters to make it look........ok. Funny you guys mention DUI's too, the West Chicago P.D. was running a road side check in the local VFW Hall parking lot when I was coming home from the gym tonight. I was going the other direction tonight and didn't have to stop for it (all they would have found is a sweaty fat guy a bunch of bottled water and some RC stuff )

I really wish they had made a 2dr panel from that version of the PT's unibody too!
