  1. Not to mention.....
  2. The Country Squire in the movie is a 63.
  3. The radio IS on the left side of the instrument cluster on 69-70 full-size Fords. The control knobs are below the radio dial. One of my friends used to reach across to change stations while her mother was driving.
  4. Speed City Resins has a really good resin pulley and belt set. The belt is flexible black resin.
  5. 68 Mercury Cyclone 72 Montego GT Triumph TR6 73 Pontiac Grand Am 78 Malibu
  6. I found an assembled blue 57 Thunderbird, with box, at NNL West last year.
  7. Visited Hobby Lobby. Got a Revell Land Rover and a 69 Boss 302 kit, taking advantage of the 40% off deal. Also 7 bottles of Model Master flats and metal paint (Still a fairly good selection at the local store)
  8. It was hard to find a 1:1 Z car with stock wheels and covers. Most dealerships added "mandatory" aftermarket wheels at the very least.
  9. Yes. Here in Palmdale, California. I was in the middle of telling my daughter something and was reduced to "OOOOOO! OOOOO!".
  10. Also a couple days ago: 56 Dodge on a flatbed and a 70s Jeepster on a trailer.
  11. A red Dual Ghia convertible. This one or one like it.
  12. I remember some dealerships were putting Versailles front clips, taillights etc on Granadas and Monarchs and selling them for a good profit for a while.
  13. And it has side sculpturing more like a 70-72 Tempest/GTO than a Chevelle.
  14. That's a 924. 944s had the box flares.
  15. 64 Cadillac Fleetwood Sixty Special and a roofless Scout II. Also a Grabber Blue C8.
  16. Aoshima 1/23 MGB for the C1 GT btody that will hopefully be here soon, Hasegawa BMW 2002 and a Revell 62 Chevy. Also a check for some of my consignment kits that have been sold. I made a trip to the San Fernando Valley and hit wo local hobby shops that are still open.
  17. I am using the door panels, seats etc from the 66 Nova and a cargo area from a 65 Chevelle wagon. Not perfect or prototypical but it works for me. The new kit will be out before I finish lol.
  18. The 66 Chassis mates up with the original 63 wagon body pretty well, but doesn't play nice with the interior.
  19. Eventually it was. It became the "Iron Duke", used in Monzas and other Vega-derived cars in the late 70s, S-10s, Citation family and Celebrity/Ciera/Century/6000.
  20. Along with a beat up deceased horse.
