  1. Very nice trio Bruce. What scale is the Honda?
  2. Beautiful work on all of them Dan!👍
  3. Yes. I didn’t for a moment think that YOU thought they were the same engine Bill. I merely wanted to clarify the differences for anyone else researching these engines.
  4. I think we are talking about three different engines. This engine I believe is a Chevrolet engine (194/230/250/292) due to the forward location of the distributor and spin on oil filter. The pics Mark posted above are the GMC 228/256/248/270/302 that the Wayne/fisher 12 port heads were actually made for. The engine that comes in the AMT ‘51 Chevy kit is a 216/235/261 “stovebolt” six (which was the basis for the blue flame ‘53 Corvette engine). AMT supplied the Fisher head and 12 terminal distributor to emulate the larger GMC six even though the 1-1 parts would not fit that engine. That is my take on it.🙂 Edit: The stovebolt and the GMC both have the distributor roughly centered on the block and are fairly similar in appearance.
  5. Ain’t my cup of tea Steve…but I gotta say the work you’ve done on this is awesome!👍 I can certainly appreciate the engineering involved.😎
  6. Great looking Nomad!👍
  7. That ain’t a bad lookin Plymouth just the way it is.😎
  8. I’ve only had the snowblower out twice so far. Mostly because it’s just a bit too much to shovel. It’s a bit nippy outside right now and the roads are polished like a skating rink. We have studded tires on the wife’s Jeep so we just have to watch out for the idiots on the road. At least the vehicle stays clean in this weather.🙂
  9. Bill the cat says ACK!
  10. Great work…your attention to detail is admirable.👍
  11. The wheels and tires look great great and will complement the car nicely.😎
  12. Well the kids have some nifty ideas going on in their heads.👍
  13. Amazing scratch building talent you have Dave! 👍
  14. Wow! Some interesting and innovative ideas here…and amazing skills to make them happen! Fantastic work so far Andreas!😎
  15. Looking good. Those are the stock wheels are they not?
  16. Great job on the rust. It looks like someone sanded it down to bare metal in preparation for paint and then left it out in the rain.
  17. Sweet looking Tudor Scott. Well done!👍
  18. Nice. It has an “original” look to it.😎
  19. Great looking T-Bird!😎
  20. It is Tamiya TS-11 Maroon.
  21. Thanks, they must have been in a box of parts I got somewhere?
  22. Weight on your conscience is not a good thing.
