  1. I guess Rat Fink isn't a huge seller nowadays.
  2. I saw an S10 Xtreme, work truck edition.
  3. Not much of a selection at the Hiawassee store near Pine Hills FL. Vettes, Model Ts, surf wagons, and some of the older ones they had before.
  4. My mom had a Pinto wagon. I thought it was purple but she says it was blue. I have a kit to build it.
  5. Here is the finished result. That concludes the modeling/shaping portion of this repair. Tune in next time when I'll be gluing a broken camshaft together using Super Glue.
  6. I'm using JB Weld again, but to fill in the chip instead of gluing everything together with it. I've used it before to fill in exhaust crossovers at the gasket and it worked well. Made a dam, clamped in the key. Poured it in. Let it set up and started shaping. I'll wait for it to fully cure before finishing the shaping.
  7. This'll be fun to fix. You can see the remnants of the JB Weld that was used to hold it together before I got it.
  8. Sounds like you need to charge more for the tires. No need to feel bad about asking a price you think is fair. Quality costs money.
  9. Best I could do, but this truck with the side caved in.
  10. Looks like they're getting the Wal-Mart leftovers.
  11. I've been wanting to work on something for a while now, so I finally did. I cut the hood off the Surf Shark. About to work on getting the transmission out of the chassis plate.
  12. When my wife and I go places I almost always drive. I tell her I don't want people thinking I'm some unlicensed loser that needs his girlfriend to drive him around, which is what I think when I see a man on the passenger side.
  13. Because you didn't pay someone for the design and cost of printing, you only paid for the design.
  14. You obviously don't get it. Ok, follow me here. People on Shapeways don't sell an $8 part, they sell an $8 design. Then you also have to pay for the creation of the part and the shipping of the part.
  15. I do everything to my cars myself. Nobody does it as good as me.
  16. I like to consider myself pretty good with a jack nowadays, but I did manage to drop a car or two off of one in my youth.
  17. Yea, no more cigarette lighters. They're called power ports.
  18. There's a certain scene with a hood and a dress that sticks to my mind.
  19. Ollie's recently had the newest reissue of this.
  20. Yea that's cool.
