  1. Love when people use those Sportster tanks.?
  2. They also did a '70 GSX in yellow with Keystones that's pretty famous as well as a GTO or 2 . They would basically give the Motion treatment any car you brought in.
  3. The must have built that Olds over at the Hurst facility over in Willow Grove. I remember seeing Hemi Darts and Barracudas sitting outside whenever we would drive by.
  4. I like that blue too. And those Hurst wheels with the redlines. ?
  5. Urge overkill - Witchita Lineman. Glen Campbell cover
  6. Urge Overkill - The Stull EP
  7. The Motion had a 454. Those things had to be scary ?
  8. It was in Hemmings muscle machines a month before this show . The owner found it on a used car lot in Philly and no one knew what it was. I turns out it was a prototype made by Hurst that Oldsmobile ended up passing on and there was no Hurst Olds that year. It was missing one of the T tops and had some kind of boat sitting on the roof to keep the rain out. The story goes that it was very difficult to replace the missing T top because none existed. The 2 tops were also said to be different than one another This was the only Hurst known to be built for that year. A true one of none. Also saw another magazine car at this show. This '69 Motion GS that was found in somebody's back yard. That was pretty cool.
  9. Stopped at the dollar store again and picked up some more of those glass paint bottles (already filled the first batch with small parts) and some more chepo brushes. Then 2 auto parts stores for the purple super clean auto zone had 2 bigger size bottles to chose from.
  10. I grew up next to a farm but I really never learned much about how the whole place worked. I did learn not to stand too close to the back of the row of cows when they were being milked (all autamated) they could piss pretty far and it was like a garden hose on full blast. You had to keep on your toes or you would get a nasty Bath. ?
  11. How about the one of none protype Hurst Olds (believe it was a '76). This was from a BOP show a few years back.
  12. I sent Ray an email asking why he took down his ebay store and he replied that he has a new guy that handles this and his handle is pontiacbanker. After all kinds of searching, I kept coming up with nothing. Now Rays Kits is based in the Netherlands and the shipping on a single decal sheet is over $30. With the ebay store the cost came down a bit but I cant seem to find this new ebay store. If anybody knows the link that would be huge.
  13. Those wheels really look like Magnum 500s.
  14. I heard one on the radio today that they also changed it because it helped with the cows milking cycles.
  15. Teenage Fanclub. Thirteen. Whole album is great.
  16. But can he yodel? ?
  17. I would be highly game for a '71 Motion Vega. ?
  18. Can't Get Used to Loosing You - The Beat . made famous by Andy Williams. Written by Doc Pomus and Mort Shuman.
  19. Wouldn't mind seeing that '61 Starliner re produced. ?
  20. I never heard of this company but after reading this post, my mind immediately went here. ? This guy can really belt it out!
  21. The Beat - Wha'ppen? . Known as the English beat here in the states because of legal reasons. I remember constantly listing to this album back in the 80s. there are so many great tracks on this one and the production is really good. This album definitely altered the coarse of my life's musical journey. I still go back and listen to it today.
  22. Love American style - Not About to Lose It. One of the bands I used to be in ran in the same circles as this Delaware band back when they were called Smashing Orange. I always used to break into this riff in practice.
  23. The TV show American Greed did a whole show on Crazy Eddie. He got indicted on fraud charges.
  24. This Mortal Coil. Natures way. Spirit cover
  25. Bongwater - Too Much Sleep
