If I am correct, the Fruit Wagon is derived from the Double T kit. And elsewhere on this site, the engine is said to not be a correct Lincoln

I don't get the concept and construction of it from the photos

bummer you chose a Chevy!

driving 30 in a 40 and hitting the brakes to slow to 20 before speeding back up to 30. lather, rinse, repeat.

Either coincidence or great minds. I just started back to work on the same VW kit, nearly twenty years after painting it.

does it make its own fuel (ethanol)?

Still haven't seen the '63 in the wild here. Neither LHS or HL

I have to agree on the Rustoleum cans. I've tried the hot water trick dunking the nozzles immediately after spraying, thinner in the tubes, and nothing works to revive a half can

Now that I looked at it, it appears the chrome tree is missing

We need more of people looking out for each other. Forget your differences and find something in common. Besides, doing something nice for someone brings more health benefit than stressing out and complaining.

has to be regional/ none in eastern KS Or western MO

All of those race cars were really sponsored by them. It's just how much merchandising/ licensing they did.

but math is complicated! Especially new math. AI said it was correct.

Honestly, it doesn't matter. Life is too short to worry about what others think. If government wants to classify them as toys and exempt them from taxes, all the better for those who enjoy them. What matters is that we enjoy building them.

And let's not forget the cinnamon pine cones that make you unable to breathe

When you click on an item on their site it actually takes you to the item on Amazon. I've ordered once or twice with no issues.

Those of you posting about snow are almost making me want to post to the "what irked you today?" post about the lack there of here! Seriously, enjoy the snow for me!

What is the offset of your wheels? If you don't know, wheel offset is the distance from the edge of the rim on the backside to the flat part of the wheel center that mates to the axle/ spindle. A wider axle allows your to run a deeper offset ( and thus wider wheel and tire)and still keep the wheels under the fenders or the same overall width as the rear.

I would guess a LeSabre donated lower quarter panels and bumper, but we really need a better picture. An Invicta would be another option. It looks like all b-body olds had the skegs. Chevy and Pontiac look to have different wheel openings.

According to Wikipedia, the B-body was shared with Pontiac, Buick, and Chevy. From what I can see, only the Oldsmobiles had the skegs. General Motors B platform - Wikipedia. If that is the case, I'd venture parts from one of the other models were used to repair rust or accident damage because of the parts being scarce. Or someone put an Olds front clip and badges on one of the other B-bodies.

As someone not up on GM products, what other cars shared the platform? it's possible someone did repairs using quarters an rear panels form something else to save the car since replacement panels are rare. Just my 2 cents.

Bring back the MPC Ford 4x4 van. More Mercurys, Buicks and Oldsmobiles. Studebaker Hawk, Hudson Terraplane. Packards of any year. In other words something besides the same old subjects. Not all at once just issue one a year in addition to all of the same old subjects being re-issued. re-tooled.

flames and scallops were often used to hide repairs or custom work so you don't have to deal with re-painting a panel or whole car. I say improvise with some scallops, flames, panel painting, etc.

Also got a '64 Old convertible to donate parts to save a '62 Cutlas body.
