  1. My Testors issue of the AMX measures 6 7/8 inches front to back.
  2. I wouldn't mind some Goodbeer or Fireprone tires.
  3. It has some extra camber probably from ball joints or control arm bushings but it doesn't get used much so it wasn't really a priority. It's sitting because I need to work on the brakes and I was going to look into that more while I was at it.
  4. I did not realize Rockville was a multiple day event, and that my wife would be taking our daughter there again today. She asked for a list, so I told her a few. She brought me these:
  5. My wife went to Daytona Beach to drop our daughter off at Rockville and found a place that sells models. Not so much a hobby shop but a place at the flea market that has both old and new. She surprised me with one she knew I wanted.
  6. The S series trucks use a very similar setup. You could use parts from the AWD 93 S10.
  7. Knob means the same thing in America.
  8. Not much of a selection at the Ollie's near where I was working, but I did get this:
  9. Tabbysdaddy

    69 AMX parts

    867-5309. Ask for Jenny.
  10. Round 2 has most of the regular cab long bed tooling in the form of the USA-1 monster truck. There was some alterations to it to make the monster truck.
  11. Sounds reasonable. Happens all the time with people's "arms".
  12. My guess would be that the tow truck driver flipped it back over and then they drove it 700 miles home.
  13. I think a jumping the shark on a motorcycle diorama would be much more interesting.
  14. I also have no way to add pictures.
  15. I guess it's a good thing I changed the wheels on the van.
  16. I was so careful not to break this fitting the first time, not as careful this time. It was an elbow, but I could only find this brass straight fitting. I made it work but I had to redrill the hole because it would have followed the angle of the part it screws in to pointing at the throttle body.
  17. It's closer than it looks. The runway is just to the right.
  18. Had to do callbacks today, so I took the long way around and stopped at Ollie's. This was the only thing they had that I wanted.
  19. Those knock sensors I got online are no good, even though they're supposed to be AC Delco. I got the wiring harness with them so I repaired the old harness and mounted the old sensors to the head to test them. They're good, the problem was the deteriorated harness. Unfortunately I have to remove the intake manifold again to reinstall them where they're supposed to be.
  20. Two knock sensors on the truck, one is bad. Only a seasoned mechanic can tell which one.
  21. Yesterday I saw a Starsky and Hutch striped tomato but couldn't get a picture.
