  1. The video is the fixed bridge. It was the 11'8" bridge. It was raised 8" so they call it 11'8" plus 8".
  2. The 1/16 '55 convertible looks new, at least the one near me hasn't had it. I'm going to have to check mine and get one.
  3. I chose one in 1/24 and one in 1/25 so I can display most of my builds accurately. Choose your size is awesome, can't wait for my custom built dioramas to come in. Thanks Doug!
  4. I miss Car Craft, I liked it better. I have this memorabilia, has to be worth two or three grand by now.
  5. I finally saw a Cybertruck on the road today. No picture, I think most of us know what one looks like.
  6. Florida man here. I would still be running expired tags but my wife doesn't enjoy being pulled over as much as I do.
  7. My brother had a Dodge Conquest and a Mitsubishi Starion. Other manufacturers did it too. The Chevy Luv was an Isuzu. The Isuzu Hombre was a Chevy. Mazda made the Courier and Ford made the B2000.
  8. My house is about two or three miles from Orlando Speed World. Drag strip, circle track, dirt bike track. Sometimes I think I missed a launch, but it's just a rocket car.
  9. Well, when you copy someone else's design you usually have to pay licensing. So my idea is that it's just a generic aftermarket looking air cleaner. Much like that gruesome camper top on the new Ford truck kit.
  10. I think the brown is called fudge Packard.
  11. Haynes, 82-92 Chevy Camaro essentially the same as a Firebird.
  12. Again not calling you a liar, are you the original owner? I'm not familiar with the tag on the carburetor, does it indicate a replacement unit? Most hated the electronic feedback carburetor so it was one of the first things to go.
  13. Pretty sure they all had it as emissions equipment, but I'm not calling you a liar.
  14. I'm pretty sure it would have the electronic feedback Rochester, which has a little computer. The carb would have an electrical connector on the top.
  15. That's how I did my truck, except not as high quality paint as Rustoleum.
  16. Yes, they started the newer one piece rear main seal block in 86 but added the fuel injection in 87. The 454s may have been carbed a little longer though, I never researched those.
  17. They're diesel electric locomotives. Give them some credit, they're halfway there.
  18. Not in the US, nothing cross country at the very least.
  19. Yea, I'm not paying almost double what I paid for my house, for a truck. My $200 vehicles work just fine, most of the time.
  20. They also do that to fit wider tires, so the tire doesn't stick out past the fender lip which is against vehicle code in some places.
