When you have to remove an intake manifold to replace a starter, or a drive axle to change out an alternator, something is wrong.

Pearl pink current-model Escalade. Probably a big time Mary Kay seller.

The only full-size 67 Pontiac kits were Bonnevilles.

There never was a 67 Skylark kit. Amt made a 66 though.

Cool. I have one of those as well, purchased from Paul when his company was still Dragon. One of my favorite builds. I have always thought that this was one of the best-looking Ferraris. I recently got the coupe version.

Pretty sure Kevin used the MPC 73 Cougar engine compartment as it was a separate part and easy to duplicate. It had its roots in the 69 "Super Cat" and 70 Cougar kits.

Speed City Resin cast a pretty good one. Check the website to see if it's still available: Speed City Resin Vintage Drag Racing Model Cars Give it a shot, you never know.

A wrecking yard near Gooding, Idaho that had a LOT of interesting cars and trucks. A lot of Cadillacs 40s-60s. This place covers a lot of acreage. Between Ephraim and Manti, Utah, a house with several rusty 50s-60s Mopars. In the front yard was a 2-door 62-63 Imperial with a For Sale sign in the window. There were banners all over Manti for the Ed Roth Reunion, which will be held next weekend. We drove past Roth's house/museum.

I saw a truck transporting a couple of these on Monday. I was wondering what they were.

The 1/20 scale kits referenced were made by MPC, not Monogram.

I have always wondered about that as well. There are a lot of cars that have the same issue.
