I'm liking the lines!

hahahahaha!

I bothced the last one I tried and sold it for cheap in may, but need to keep quiet when not working now that Mom is home from the hospital after knee surgery

Just picked up the AMT 1966 Buick Wildcat (#38457) and saw that it was one of the old kustomizing kits with the kustom goodies still in the box. Anybody ever play with this one?

I'd watch out for teh Tubers if I were you

Glad you jumped in Nick, I know nothing about TLT axles! Now if it was Axial, Wheely King, and Venom/A-Tec.................

Yup, NickF40 and myself are the ones, what kind of questions do you have Gregg?

Another beaut! Did you dull coat the chroame on that engine?

Looks good.........How many shoehorns did it take?

Looks good, wish they still made that kit.

Here's mine before the garage sale and now!

She got out of surgery and recovery ok and should be released monday morning! She did have elevated BP and Suger levels (she is diabetic) as well as an odd extra heart beat (low magnisium levels) so they're going to keep an eye on that while she is there. By the time we left (we got there at 10:45am and left around 8:45pm, yes it was a long day) the meds had her trying to fall asleep on more than one occasion. I've got to work tomorrow but am going to stop by after work and visit her.

Wow, I'm not sure! Looks pretty real though.....emphasis on pretty

Neat, the different parts work great together!

Mom's going in to have her right knee redone on friday. Guess the doctor not only works on White Sox and Bulls players, but also has royalty fly in to get worked on and has developed a replacement knee designed specifically for women too!

Looks cool!

I think that's what Barris started with...........

Well, the roads will almost be safe to travel on then

You know nick, it's not hard to a video of a rotory failing Now here is an engine failure! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4g7_bHlQhd8...feature=related

It is the Jeep 4.0l and from what I understand, it is the last engine from the Rambler engine family. Sounds like there was enough water in the jackets that as the engine overheated after the pump locked up it was able to build up some steam the cyliders and protect them! Dad's begining to think that by the time she got to the house that the steam was starting to get out of the engine and cause the electronics to freak out and stall the engine. Looks like it didn't hurt the motor, but only time will tell. I did read something on another forum from somebody who has a friend who works at a Jeep dealer. They had an '87 or '88 4.0l Comanche come in with 77k on the clock and the engine locked up solid. Turns out the truck was still running on the factory fill of motor oil!

What'd you use for the roof, a second Merc?

My Little Sister overheated her 200k+ mile Cherokee so bad today that it locked the motor as she pulled in the driveway. She drove it for a few miles with the water pump locked up and a thrown belt. Dad chewed her out for not stopping someplace safe (plent of spots to do so) and calling him ASAP as well as not fixing it as soon as we noticed the noise and the puddles it was leaving behind. Once it cooled back down Dad was actually able to get it to start back up! He put a new pump and belt on hit while she and mom were inside hosting bachelorette party for a co worker of her's and she was able to drive it back to the apartment she shares with her boyfriend tonight. Dad and I followed her back home and Dad wondered why Mom wanted us to do so. We were wondering if mom didn't trust his repair or that the truck wasn't too badly damaged, but he said no to the later and added "It's a tough old block." It won't be the same it was before (it was already getting tired anyway), but atleast it's still driveable!

That's "correct"? Looks like a FUBAR waiting to happen!

Love to know why they call them wisdom teeth if thay ainn't smart enough to grow in straight Good luck with the removal
