Has anyone compared the two AMT '57 Chrysler 300C kits?
Joe Handley replied to JollySipper's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
If we're lucky, Round 2 will do that at some point! -
Found this by accident the other night while watching a few videos from a guy who made large scale wooden bodied RC "scalers" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GoxIDpf84RY

New Automotive Styling Trend?
Joe Handley replied to Modelmartin's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I snagged the Mopar Accessory book for the 200's when I went too look at them a few weeks back prior to buying mine and you can still buy a Mopar Parts Bra for the car! They also offer an "Ambiant Light Kit", which are LED's that go up behind the dash and and light up the footwells in any of 8 user chosen colors....... I do like the door sill guards with the Chrysler logo stamped into them as well as molded cargo tray though! I think that fad has finally died around here, those aren't as common as the used to be. Did nearly fall over the first time I saw one of thoee Buick crossovers (I think it was the Azztek sibling one) that not only had the portholes, but had them in the right place and may have even had the right count (3 per side......hopefully it had a 6 in it) too! -
That's a good looking Silverado there Nick, how solid is it?

I'm just shy of having put 100 miles on the car and still have just short of 3/4 of a tank left out of 16.9 gallons and so far love driving it more and more every time I drive it! Had a friend, like George, thank me for buying American and liked the over all look of the car and really liked how the driver seat felt........think he may want to see me tweek the car a bit too Another friend (and customer from work) also really liked the overall look of the car, including the roofline (yes, even the roofline!) and generally thought it looked Classy too! -
You ever see Young kids buy models,
Joe Handley replied to rel14's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Yes, but it's not common. -

Got the temp. insurance card before I left work today so I took the 200 instead of my Jeep. My last fill up with the Jeep was returned a pretty decent 16.3mpg.......if the mileage computer on the 200 is to be believed, I was getting anywhere from 23-23.9 on the drive to work! -

Yea, that is beyond impressive! -
What do you do if you won what I won?
Joe Handley replied to tiking's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
If that is anywhere near the size of the old 21st Century Soldiers 1/6 tank we had at Toy's "R" Us, you're looking at around 3'+ in length and at least 2' wide. It should be compatable with the old school GI Joes and Barbie Dolls too -

Thanks Guys, I'm liking it so far! I kept hearing that they were hard to keep on the lot, especially the V-6 cars like mine! -

It's deeeep even though the truck lid and opening appear tiny Jonathan, jokingly told a co-worker it would probably fit a couple bodies back there (hey now, I did grow up in the Chicago area ) Gas mileage will be far better than my XJ too, we're going up to Road America for the NASCAR Nationwide race this summer and this will be far more comfortable for the drive than my Jeep besides getting much better mileage. -

Joe Handley replied to Joe Handley's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Yup, it's actually built on the same basic unibody, but the only thing they didn't really alter was the roofline and maybe the door skins when they reworked it for the 200. -

It's going to get a new pair of rear speakers, brake job, and new front shocks this spring or summer (got the parts, just need the time to put them on) and I've wanting to replace the dead d/s power seat assembly with a junk yard manual assembly, so if I can afford that too I will. Since like the rear brakes, the u-joints on tne drive shafts are probably factory pieces (I bought it with 54k, so the most likely will be), we need to look at those too and should probably rotate the tires for good measure. while it's in the air for brakes and shocks. -

Thanks guys, and Mike, keep an eye out for it at the store here shortly too. One I've got it reported to my insurer and can get a card, it'll be my new driver instead of my XJ. -
Wasn't that sign part of "The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy" too Michelle?

I've been wondering that for a while now Dave, same with the first gen Neons, used to be tons of them, now they seem to be pretty rare around here. The Plymouth versions were called the Sundance, and the later, post turbo Plymouths were known as Dusters (not exactly slow for their day IIRC, but the Chrysler 4speed Auto's were less than reliable). -
