If you live in lake county he may still be voting every election, just say'n........

The AARP is clueless, so it would only seem........

I was inspired, his truck has a man, a boat and severial fishing poles.

YAWN, let's see whats on the Polka chanel..........

Thanks to a friend who can scan and make such things my pickup window has one fat bearded guy, a house, a pickup, a Camaro, 3 Harleys, a bunch of guns and 2 dogs. No women or kids.

Again, this is correct for US models, euro spec 70's were still swing axle, so it depends on just what model was modeled.

Didn't he get into some trouble over some "unauthorized" Batmobiles some years back?

Still looks better then Testors chrome silver.

The whole concept of a dog interacting as a human never worked for me.

VW never imported type 3 notchbacks or type 34 Ghia's into the US, so I supose those cars don't exist either?

"Cal Look" Beetle = good! "California Wheels" Beetle = wrong!

Who in their right mind would "California Wheels" a VW ?

X2, it's a home market spec car. 100% correct 1968 euro standard.

Here in Indiana there is no inspection law, just buy a plate and go.

When Rat Rods first started comming around they wern't what they are today. They were bare bones and in flat black or primer, maybe a Mexican blanket on the seat. More of what is called a nostalga rod today. I was sick of the way too smooth slicked up billet sleds that "Street Rods" had become and was glad to see a breath of fresh air. But soon I started seeing junk with no floor boards, no front brakes, farm implement tires, hack welding, raw sharp edges, and in one case a cut brake line hammered flat and folded back on itself! If they trailered this stuff to the shows it would be one thing, but these things are out on the same streets my grandkids are on, and it seems most of the time driven pretty wrecklessly.

I've got the Modelhaus parts and they are first rate! Also, I worked at an Oldsmobile / Cadillac dealer back in the 70's, the last car I saw badged as an F-85 was a 1973 A body (same as a Cutlass "S"). It even had a 3 on the tree!.

AMT never kitted a 69 Road Runner, that was Jo-Han.

President Kennedy had so energized the country. It was just so hard to believe anyone wanted him dead. History through rose colored glasses, like any political figure 50% loved him, 50% not so much. Where were you? I was in the third grade, and home sick from school. I was watching TV and saw the live footage.

Loud and vibrating pretty much sum up a Manx! They arn't a car for the timid.

I must agree, don't tear it up, build another one!

Thanks guys! I think I have one of those Beretta kits in my stash, and severial parts on the resin page look good to me!

I'm sorry, I didn't make myself clear. I ment that the 39 Chevys that GM built were reskins of the 37 and 38's that they made. As AMT made a 1/25 37 it could be used as a starting point, but it would require more work to be correct. Yes, all Monogram 39's are 1/24.

A LARGE tree is down accross the road 1/4 mile from here, everyone on the other side is without power.

It's silly here too.
