  1. It's an old Pryo mold, not known for quality, accuracy or ease of build.
  2. If I ever get another it will be Subaru turbo powered. Mine was a 1.8 and was a complete DOG. Couldn't deal with a stock 4 cyl. one today.
  3. This is far from the story I heard, the 914 was to be the Karmann Ghia replacement, and Porsche did the development. VW AUDI backed out going water cooled instead, and Porsche was stuck holding the ball and released the car worldwide as a VW-Porsche (and badged as such everywhere except the US). The engine is 100% VW type 4 as used in the 411 and 412 sedans, and VW type 2 transporters from 1972. Having said that, they are great cars, the one I had was great fun and I'd love to have another.
  4. Yogi and Boo-boo? Care Bears? Gummy Bears? The Berenstein Bears? Which loto and how much was it up to?
  5. That will be unique because most rodders use the newer T's, cool thought.
  6. Did anyone else notice the forum is running much smoother and faster now?
  7. I highly enjoy both the magazine and the web site, and send thanks to all who bankroll it and keep it going, especially Gregg.
  8. Does the Revell 66 ElCamino have the right hub caps?
  9. If you are near Dayton this guy can get you started. http://www.harpdepot.com/
  10. Blues harmonica player here. I have a Fender Strat too, but I wouldn't call what I do as playing music on it.
  11. They forgot "Needs body work = Needs body".
  12. Nice Angila Ute, but why does everybody want to cut them up and ruin them?
  13. A lawyer opened the door of his BMW, when suddenly a car came along and hit the door, ripping it off completely. When the police arrived at the scene, the lawyer was complaining bitterly about the damage to his precious BMW. "Officer, look what they've done to my Beeemer!!!", he whiningly said. "You lawyers are so materialistic, you make me sick!!!" retorted the officer, "You're so worried about your stupid BMW, that you didn't even notice that your left arm was ripped off!!!" "Oh my god....", replied the lawyer, finally noticing the bloody left shoulder where his arm once was, "Where's my Rolex?
  14. I like it without the wheelcovers! Thats the way they looked at the strip!
  15. That cowl looks wrong for any T I know of, should be open topped with the lower windshield slanted to it.
  16. I would imagine the low early Corvette sales scared everyone else off.
  17. 3 to 4 inches coming down right now, and the forecast is cold enough for it to stay around for a while.
  18. After 2013-14 never ending winter we are already having mid-January type weather, single digit lows in the morning and highs in the 20's are pridected for next week. 4 inches of snow coming down right now. We don't normaly get that until after the first of January.
  19. so, all we need is for Revell to update their 59 to a 60, and backdate their new 62 to a 61, and we'll have all the quad light first gen 'Vettes covered.
  20. Well, winter ends about March 20'th, so maybe before then......
  21. What era is the auto transporter correct for?
  22. That and the trim in the side cove. Very minor differances. But there is nothing wrong with the MPC kit and it's easy to find.
