Not for the faint of hear...
Oldcarfan27 replied to Daddyfink's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Seen the General Lee before. That's actually a clone made from a police Crown Victoria, not a real Charger. Look at close up pics of the interior - dash is sheet metal and CV seats are still in place. Daytonas are sad, did that happen from Ian? -
Why hide it, that's just beautiful!

Did that tree actually pull up the sidewalk? Doesn't look like those any of those trees had very deep root base. Hopefully they missed the houses.

A privately owned Blackhawk? How cool is that?
Oldcarfan27 replied to Ace-Garageguy's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
I can give you a country where there's a whole bunch of these things just sitting around dormant. Keys still in 'em! ? -
Must be a peaceful place for them. Notice they don't run away when he walks up to them. (Then again, it could be the bag of food he's carrying) They seem to be cool with people around.

Look, they spotted BigFoot!!?

If you look closely, none of it is permanent (No tats, no skin perforations). So it's probably just a stunt for a photo op. Halloween is coming!

Pete & Jakes yellow 34 Ford Grille
Oldcarfan27 replied to mrindy77's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Pretty sure that's what they used for the original car. So do it like they did! -
Shouldn't be a problem. I painted a 71 Cuda this color and it struck me as perfect. The only issue I had was it kept drying a little gritty, so after it completely cured, I spent time color sanding it and polishing it out. Very durable and ended up becoming a gorgeous, smooth finish. I was proud of it until I tried to put the black billboards on the side, which were translucent and cracked. Then I tried to fix them which made it worse. Back into the box until I can figure out what can be done to it. But the color is excellent!!!

Last week, just picked up a Revell 69 Chevelle and a F&F GTX. Didn't need the 50 Chevy pu, 50th anniversary Camaro or the Street Heat Concord. If there was anything else, I missed it. I was hoping to find the 68 Chevelle or the Supernatural Impala, But alas...

New Mustang Mach E
Oldcarfan27 replied to Jon Haigwood's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Yeah, but they're all 2 door cars. Even today, the 4 door sedan versions of those cars barely get saved for more than parts cars for the sportier models. Nowadays all the cars are 4 door sedans, so they are hardly anything special. -

It would be a kit you don't build, just plug it in and done! ? -
Calling all Super Stock gurus!
Oldcarfan27 replied to Oldcarfan27's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I didn't buy it, It just caught my eye as a cool SS class car with period decals wheels and stance. Along with the fact that it says S/S on the rear quarters next to 990. Was "The Sled" a real car from that period, or is that bogus too? What didn't seem right to me was the mods that indicates a far deviation from a stock drag car. Which is why I asked. I'm no expert. -
Saw this car on Ebay. Looks like a cool build of a vintage Super Stock drag car, but the chassis and suspension don't look right to me. I'm not knocking the build, I just don't know enough about the rules to know if these mods are correct for Super Stock. Blower, roll cage, front suspension cage, rear tubs and fuel cell legal in 1962?

Pretty cool Dirty Mary Crazy Larry video.
Oldcarfan27 replied to Mike C.'s topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
I saw a write up that said the real movie car was bought afterwards and kept but not preserved. Tell me if you don't think this car fits the description. Look at how the damage matches the repairs! -

I think he means the flush (Charger 500) back window.
