  1. Simple; get a new set of arm rests for my truck, get a Lincoln Electric Mig Welder, and if I'm feeling really spendy, buy a 2 bay Heated Garage with enough ceiling clearance for a Ammco two-post hoist. Nick

  10. Got this about 6 months after it was released as a Revell Special edition kit, started it about a year later, then ran into problems, boxed it and forgot about it until earlier this year, I was then on a mission to finish it, So here it is, inspired by a local Hot Rod and Bruce Springsteen song Ram Rod; Hey, little dolly with the blue jeans on I wanna ramrod with you honey, till half-past dawn Let your hair down sugar and pick up this beat Come on and meet me tonight down on Bluebird Street I've been working all week, I'm up to my neck in hock Come Saturday night I let my ramrod rock She's a hot stepping hemi with a four on the floor She's a roadrunner engine in a '32 Ford Late at night when I'm dead on the line I swear I think of your pretty face when I let her unwind Well look over yonder see them city lights Come on little dolly 'n' go ramroddin' tonight Come on, come on, come on little baby Come on, come on let's shake it tonight Come on, come, come on little sugar Dance with your daddy and we'll go ramroddin' tonight Hey, little dolly won't you say you will Meet me tonight up on top of the hill Well just a few miles cross the county line There's a cute little chapel nestled down in the pines Say you'll be mine little girl I'll put my foot to the floor Give me the word now sugar, we'll go ramroddin' forever more The Irony is that I started out with just a Hemi from unkown origin, later found out that it was from the '68 Road Runner, so it literally a Roadrunner Engine I was putting in my '32 Ford. Anyway, bits and pieces from the kit, the parts box, and various aftermarket companies. Enjoy. I already have.
  11. Ram Rod is Finished. Hey, little dolly with the blue jeans on I wanna ramrod with you honey, till half-past dawn Let your hair down sugar and pick up this beat Come on and meet me tonight down on Bluebird Street I've been working all week, I'm up to my neck in hock Come Saturday night I let my ramrod rock She's a hot stepping hemi with a four on the floor She's a roadrunner engine in a '32 Ford Late at night when I'm dead on the line I swear I think of your pretty face when I let her unwind Well look over yonder see them city lights Come on little dolly 'n' go ramroddin' tonight Come on, come on, come on little baby Come on, come on let's shake it tonight Come on, come, come on little sugar Dance with your daddy and we'll go ramroddin' tonight Hey, little dolly won't you say you will Meet me tonight up on top of the hill Well just a few miles cross the county line There's a cute little chapel nestled down in the pines Say you'll be mine little girl I'll put my foot to the floor Give me the word now sugar, we'll go ramroddin' forever more Nick
