Dave just stole away with your flathead while you had your back turned. Let's see how it looks in the Cord. Bil drove the getaway car, 32 ford with a Caddy engine.

Thank Mike, I'm thinking to skip the hood scoop altogether. I know Jim, I might have gone too far with this. Maybe I should have just left the friction chassis on it so you can sit and push it around on the floor. 🤣 I only paid $3 for the thing, the POS chassis cost me four times that. And now I'm looking at 3-D printed wheels that will completely break the bank. 🏦 Thanks David. I may be crazy but I enjoy saving this old junk more then starting with a fresh kit.

Three cheers for the little magnets📣📣📣 Looking good Jim, glad Revell and AMT are getting along.

Helsinki is for Children is not what Pat Benatar said, but Helsinki, Finland is a great place for children, with many kid-friendly activities, attractions, and museums.

Willy can be taken several different ways, but it reminds me of a friend I knew long ago and I often wonder what ever became of him.

Some more chassis work done this afternoon. Didn't find exactly the type of rear axle I was looking for so I settled on one from the AMT 1965 Galaxy. Problem with this axle happens to be the fact that it is open on the underside. Closed that up with some styrene strips. Axle is coil spring mounted so I added some spring perches to the underside of the axle. Can anyone identify the source for the spring perches? Found some springs lying around which I cut to the approximate length. Size will be determined later when I establish the ride height. Axle in place and it seems to line up all together pretty well. That's all for now, dogs have been fed and now it's time to cook dinner, chow🤓

Minutes are minute so short they should be and months should be long like a big oak tree, but something has gone wrong as you will soon see because by the time I'm done typing another month could go free.

Bill, are you going to take that sitting down, silence, I think he went out for a Hershey bar.

Work progresses on the sad little chassis so I can do a mock up and figure out what is going to fit. First order of business is to clean up the glue bomb. Don't know if anyone else has ever tried this but I will actually apply liquid cement around the glued in pieces to soften the glue before I try to remove pieces. Got everything off and only suffered a little damage. The mufflers did not come off without a fight and actually left two gaping holes behind. Covered the outside of the holes with some duct tape and then poured some casting resin over them from the inside. Trunk floor will need some repair work and the area where the resonators were as well. 1/24th Boss 429 in place and it actually fits rather well. The transmission mount will need to be moved rearwards or the frame mount forwards. We are a little cramped up front but I can move the radiator core support forward so we can squeeze a fan in. But the engine really fills in the engine bay. Think this is the engine we are going to stick with. So off to clean things up a bit more, see ya soon.

Promos are what I seem to be working with lately, saved from the mud at Hershey.

Advocates for Punxsutawney Phil will argue that his predictions are accurate, I personally think they are hog wash.
