  1. Back then it was "use whacha got". Looks like firecracker fodder.
  2. A 97 Suburban parts truck, $500 and drove it home, neighbor told me to take off what I wanted and he would give me $500 for what's left. Free parts, yeah!
  3. Another little detail I didn't notice, this particular intake has fuel injection nozzles plumbed into it, haven't ever seen that before. Usually the fuel is injected at the air intake to help cool the supercharger, maybe this one had both?
  4. If you look at the blower, the case is made for a top mounted system, the front mount case is different.
  5. Jim, at Crazy Scale Auto Parts has some nice resin seats.
  6. Yeah, I liked the red wheels better too. Then all you need to do is get out your pin striping brush and put a red stripe around the scallops.
  7. Looks like it fits over a short dragster chassis. http://www.speedhunters.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/California-Hot-Rod-Reunion-2015-88-copy.jpg http://www.speedhunters.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/California-Hot-Rod-Reunion-2015-91-copy-1200x800.jpg
  8. I use nail polish too, just look on the bottle and see what type of reducer was used in each. Some are acrylics, some are oil based.
  9. Really like the color scheme and detail, nice job.
  10. Actually, the magazines at the Hobby Shop come in a box.
  11. Very nice, does she give lessons? Her build is cleaner than most of mine.
  12. Got to spend some time at Silver Springs State Park with the guys at our club cook out. Had a great time, beautiful weather, good food and lots of model talk ( some of the BS overheard was getting deep).
  13. Nice, Jim.
  14. stopped at Hobby Lobby and found these in the clearance section at $8.99. The truck was $13.79.
  15. Really nice James, can you put breaks in the trim you added where the doors open? That looks strange.
  16. My first was a 59 Plymouth (in 59), tan no paint, lasted till new years and we got firecrackers to play with.
  17. Thanks for the info, wish I could find a pic of this without the cap on it.
  18. Reading the editorial "it's finally summer" in Sept. yeah,
  19. I usually don't like green on a car, but that looks nice. Great Job man.
  20. Didn't realize I was shaking that bad. oops, left out the Testors 48 coupe.
  21. A good day at Modelpalooza and Hobby Lobby.
  22. Is that a 2 barrel carb?
