  1. Looks like it is a good Box Stock entry for the next show. I like this idea.
  2. Nice job putting this back together .
  3. The new Warlock will be a have to have a few for me. Former neighbor had one of these when he moved in. He bought it new. It was pretty rusty a short 5 years later in Michigan.
  4. Unless they take your cell phone when you walk into the show nothing was smuggled out. Anything on a table or picture shared on the net is ment to be shown. Social media is the cheapest form of advertising you can get. We are all creatures of habit and they know it.
  5. There is a 66 pickup die cast i know because I have one. I wish I would have purchased 2 but they qere not cheap.
  6. Isn't the floor pan of a custom movie car from the first Barracuda. Fire something? Fireball?
  7. Diecast are out there for 60 era cornbinders just not sure when the body styles changed. Most are north of 50 bucks though.
  8. I believe Testors was the last name that any of the molds ran under.
  9. To add to what Steve has said above there was also a fire at some point. There is a seller in the Detroit area that shows up with parts and bodies left over from the cleanup he was paid to do. He was selling at reasonable prices last I seen him at Autorama. As far as the molds that are still out there. There is a possibility of those being ran in a different machine. BUT it is like running a different brand transmission in your car. It takes a lot of thought and adapters if it can happen.
  10. None of the stores sround Toledo OH have the 74 Plymouth Roadrunner. Bummer
  11. I worked with a guy in Monroe that road his bike all year one year. After a snow while at work he dumped his bike twice in the patking lot at work. He was a little stubborn. He said he was gping to do it and he did. He did drive his truck a few times after that snowy day. As soon as the roads were clear he was back on it.
  12. A motorcycle here in Michigan, in February no less.
  13. I was just at walley world and nothing was marked down. I had to pay full price for the 69 GTO I grabbed.
  14. The monroe mi store had 2 of the 29 fords, coke version. They were either returns or the last 2 left. There also had what looked like a case of the Rikshaw and the trike kits. Those ugly trikes with a small block chevy.
  15. First the blue rod looks great. Nice save on the other parts that you added the great scrath built needed body parts to finish the body. Now I see what you were saying about the front wheels. Looks killer
  16. Not what i wanted to hear. Randy ran a good shop. He deserves time for himself and family. I did have some wants from his engine line though.
  17. He will be missed. Very Good actor.
  18. Maybe a straight 6 out of a trailblazer. Is that printed by anyone?
  19. I am not married but i do have to stop buying new kits. Aftermarket stuff is different. ( lol) Hobbies all take money and time. This is what my Aunt did. Start watching the crime shows. When she asks why, just tell her you want to learn from others mistakes. It got my uncle to listen to his wife better. He still wonders if she is joking. But she does put up with a lot if his shenanigans. .
  20. Prayers for you Mike. You have your hands full. Visiting Angels are not bad here. If you can afford it for your sanity. My father only had a stroke and he was bad enough. When watching him he would make noise like a toddler when walking or qhat ever he was doing. Leave the room and just like a toddler he would zip like greased lightning down the basement steps to put wood in the wood stove. Keep in your head the house had a basement dug after the house was built in the 1800's. The steps were steep not standard size and rather short for your feet. Most adults refuses ro go up and down them. .
  21. I would guess that the original heat was no better before the addition was put on. Some times the size of the ducts are not correct is what one person said to me about uneven heat or cooling.
  22. Going faster uses more power the faster you go. Gas or electric makes no difference right? So how are they going to get 200 to 300 miles on a charge or set of batteries for a 500 mile race? That is what does not add up to me. I have. Few ideas of how they would cange a pack swimming in my head, just don't think it would be like a 9 volt connection.
  23. Being that I believe NASCAR chased away a large percetage of the original fans with the chase I think they are just about to jump the shark. They are on life support looking for new fans, to empty thier pockets.
