  1. Good question Mike. First I seen this myself. He was a good driver.
  2. Buying this car is like buying Art. Some like it some of don't. But if enough like it, this price goes up. Strange how many auto's have become to valuable to do what they were created for.
  3. I agree with Micro Mark also. Shipping to you guys up there is killer anymore. To ba you can't take the spring from one and put it on the other one.
  4. What the.... is going on. 65 way to young.
  5. Yes that is an Automatic trans. The rear brake lines run to the center of the rear end normally with a rubber line dropped down then out to the rear brakes with solid axle cars/trucks. I could be wrong but every wheel cylinder I have seen were all on the top, so I say top for the brake lines.
  6. Another well done model from your bench. Great subject.
  7. Claude this is awesome. Great idea. I think you are correct about the other Gremlin.
  8. Great price for that body. The last 2 post cover this perfectly. After your move you can figure out what you are doing with it. If not send me a PM.
  9. Well done on the best looking GM from the 60's.
  10. Nice Galaxie score, Tom. Those are not an easy find with a good roof.
  11. Another home run from one of my favorite model builders. You always pick a great subject.
  12. Great news in my eyes. Look what happened when we lost the biggest player in the car side. Doug just retired from his day job so he will have more time to keep this rolling. I wish him and his new partner the best. Don't forget he could have just closed the doors and not sold out.
  13. Sorry for your loss. 15 is a good run for a dog.
  14. Looks great. Those sure like to rust around here.
  15. Sad day for sure. He was entertaining to watch, more than some of the games.
  16. Very nice, I like this a lot. I will say this conversion is the first I recall seeing done or even offered before.
  17. Greg do what you want with it for a power plant. They sold kits for the 302 swap back in the day for jeeps.
  18. Merry Christmas !
  19. 6061 is aircraft grade as they say and is a bit gummy when machining. We use 7075 at work as it is harder and machines better.
  20. Jeff just use steel wheels from the Revell 40 Ford. The stockish version.
  21. Raymond Lowey designed the Van for Jeep. They made 3 prototypes and I believe one is in Lowey's family position.
  22. This does look very nice.
