  1. What is the point of a cap without a gasket? That is like a car with no rims and tires, a house with no roof...........
  2. The Holland Ohio store has a few left. Not worth the drive for you unless you stop on the way to the toy show on the 9th.
  3. I buy to much. But they keep on bringing back cool stuff like the Nova wagon.
  4. Yes I agree with the rest. Well done on this. The ASA cars do need to be rereleased soon.
  5. Looks right at home as a gasser.
  6. This is cool, but I think it should be in the Truck section.
  7. This is a very good build. don't see many of these other cab overs built up.
  8. Greg just watch out for small parts falling off of the engine when you strip it. I will use a smaller (think take out plastic dish) and not my big bucket when stripping glue bomb parts. This has saved me a few head aches with almost lost parts. I just poor the small dish out in a screened cup to catch the small parts. Yes paint flakes do get caught in the screen, but so do the small parts like the oil filler tube on a 283.
  9. With the cost of Shipping what it is , even the extra Coke cost it is worth it to pick up a few of these kits. I did my part to get them to bring kits in this area again next year.
  10. I talked to him today, and yes it is to keep the front down. He said he went 157 on that bike once this year. The local Drag strip ( Milan) is closed and for sale.
  11. The extended swing arm is to keep the front down when they drag race, from what I can tell. I can ask the kid at work that ran his at Norwalk this weekend. 8.4 in the 1/4 if I remember correctly. Mostly stock except for the longer swing arm. I tell him he is a nut. LOL
  12. These are great for small parts. Just make sure you check for a small hole in the bottom of the drawers. Some have them some do not. I use these and larger sterolite totes that are for shoes and the next size up from that. I just put body parts and such in zip-lock style bags to separate by brand.
  13. This is turning out very nice Dennis. Spent many an hour walking around cars shows in the mid 80's until now. This is right in the sweet spot for me with the mods. Right before it all went to the wallet builds.
  14. I bet back in the day it looked much better. It is also very close to the currently closed Milan Drag way.
