  1. Well, I do know that Oven Cleaner translates to Oven Cleaner.
  2. '53-'62 C1 '63-'67 C2 '68-'82 C3 '84-'96 C4 '97-'04 C5 '05-present C6
  3. Dang, might have to do some modifications then!
  4. I picked up the Boondocker one last summer because I was building the rereleased version of that kit.
  5. That Dodge looks awesome! Great builds for just being snap-kits. On the Dodge, what do the inner rear wheels look like? Do they look anything like the front wheels or are they more like spacers? If you have the instructions, could you take a pic of the page that shows putting the wheels together? (I'm curious because I have the same model and want to use the wheels on another kit, but I don't have it on hand to look myself.)
  6. I used the oven cleaner to strip my F-350 Dually, and it wasn't too bad. I got the scented kind, so it doesn't smell like a chemical plant. I used a plastic bucket so it didn't get all over the place. I used gloves and goggles (The goggles, they do nothing! ) so I didn't get it on me. And the plastic parts seemed fine to me when I was done. They even held paint just fine afterwards (after washing them off with soap and water first).
  7. So that means Kevin is wrong on all three!
  8. Great pics, but you're gonna want to cover up/blur out those "chest bags", this is meant to be a family site after all. (Though I'm certainly not complaining! )
  9. I see it now. It looks like they had two plants in the state that they used.
  10. Connersville? I said Auburn, which is where they got the name from.
  11. More like Indiana. The Auburn Automobile Company grew out of the Eckhart Carriage Company, founded in Auburn, Indiana, in 1875 by Charles Eckhart (1841–1915).
  12. From Wiki: Cord was the brand name of a United States automobile, manufactured by the Auburn Automobile Company from 1929 through 1932 and again in 1936 and 1937.
  13. Course the first domestic FWD with 8 cylinders was the 1929 Cord L-29.
  14. 1964.5 Ford Mustang - Intro to the Pony car 1964 Pontiac LeMans GTO - first recipe for the muscle car 1955-57 Chevy Bel Airs - essence of the 50's 1953 Chevy Corvette - beginning of the American sports cars
  15. I would think the rat rod I posted would be worse, since you're practically sitting on the ground and you have to try and see around both the engine and radiator!
  16. Well I do know that whatever you do, don' stop quickly! A friend of ours who we get our VW parts from has a shortened Bus flatbed, and he said that he's stopped quickly a few times which resulted in tipping forward and the rear wheels coming off the ground a few inches!
  17. You have to remember that copying on a computer means only one link (or whatever) will be copied at a time. As laborious as it is, you have to copy each URL here before going to grab the next one.
  18. Here's some shorties I've seen. And here's one of the flattened variety.
  19. Haha as much of a joke that was, I am legitimately curious since they show the owners and not the cars. But hey, if Gregg wants a makeover, then I'm not judging him!
  20. Generally I watch a movie or TV shows on DVD while building. It sort of gives me something to listen to while working, and something to do when waiting for glue/paint to dry, or just to give myself a break from working.
  21. Somewhat related, but I had my brother upload an old family video clip of my grandpa pulling around an old Ford wagon they had sitting around the property, trying to free up a couple stuck wheels. Yes, that is 5 year old me running around! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2vEvTj2oYzs Here's what it looks like now: As well as a few other junkers:
  22. Wait, so you're saying manifold problems don't cause your floor to fall apart?
  23. In a separate tab, go to each picture in your Flickr account that you want in the post, and one at a time grab their URLs to post here. By the way, would you ever be willing to sell that Tamiya Wrangler?
