I have to stop this unhealthy discussion. I have to break a lance for Jose (Big Messer). After the death of Harry P. we were looking for someone who takes over the old Autoquiz. Otherunicorn jumped in and later I as in charge. I had added some new ideas like truck quiz, taillight quiz or one off. Some works well some not. Jose is new in this section and he had an idea for a quiz. The truck is an interesting subject and not that easy to find. He had started the quiz without knowing that I usual do the quiz. How should he know this? There is no information who should do the quiz, there are only rules. I don't want to be the one and only who does the quiz. I can remember that other members did the quiz since I took over the quiz section from otherunicorn. Some ask if they could do the next quiz or sent interesting cars to me as a quiz idea. In the first moment I was surprised that somebody had started a new quiz, but then I said ok I don't have to start a new one. I had sent him the answer for this quiz and we chat about how we usually do the quiz. I gave him some advises like adding a number in the header and that he should attach the rules to a new quiz. For me it is ok that Jose had started the quiz. And Ihope that my answer is correct

As far as I understood has Chassis GTP2 or TX-2 have an Allison 250C18 turbine . Here is a video of at Jay Leno's Garage. BAsed on a spare chassis GTP3 was build with a Allsion 250C18 turbine but without a waste gate. Chassis GTP1 or TX-1 has a an original Continental TS325-1 turbine installed after its restoration.

This is an later installed Allsion turbine.

Great build. This i also in my list of next projects

Cool build. I currently working on the Profile24 Howmet TX in 1/24 scale

I agree and those are cheap, around $20 plus 10$ shipping and import tax in Germany

Sorry changed

Thanks for all your comments

Thanks

Yes it is

Not from Fujimi but Irtaleri has a 40Ft container trailer and 2 20ft trailer

Today I got the first kit of the new container series from Fujimi. The scale is 1/24 or so. There will be a total of 5 different colors of the 20ft Container. I had to build one of them and compared it with the Italeri 20ft container. The level of details is better compared to the Italeri one. Specially the doors are much better. On of the container sides can be either be in transparent plastic or in green like in my case. The major issue with this kit is that the container locks stands out of the shape of the container body not within the structure. This means that it is al tleast 2 mm or 0,078" too long compared to the Italeri container, And this is the reason why it doesn't fit on the Italeri 20ft container trailer or the DMTC 20ft container trailer. So we are modeller's so it should be an easy takes to modify the container. Here some pictures. The orange container idsthe Italeri one.

Based on the car that is unsafe at any speed Bertone build this show car that was presented at the Gevena Motor Show in 1963. The car is called Chevrolet Testudo. GM wanted to promote the Corvair sales in europe and the ask Pininfarina and Bertone to build a car. Bertone's Giorgetto Guigaro designed the body on a 14" shorter Corvair chassis.

While speak about Flatheads you have to know something about Ardun heads

Another excellent source with information about flathead is The Flat-Spot. A few information are only applicable for Premium members but where can you get brochure, drawing etc.

Early V8 is also interesting And my own fotki album about my F1 and its engine

Old Unimog 407

Thanks

This would be an easy one I thought, most of you good the year and manufacturer right in the first place but thr type wasn't that easy. This car is a 1952 Pontiac Chieftain Catalina. The Catalina was the more luxurious version of the Chieftain. It was offered as a hardtop coupe (like in the picture).

You are correct for 1961 but with the increase wheelbase in 1964 they had design a new box similar to the 1960 one. 4" in the front panel different rear corners for f100 and F250 and 2 different mounting points.

I'm think about to build one of the 1966 F100 from Moeboius as a wrongbed truck. As far as I under stood is the socalled wrong bed not a 1960 bed that what used on the '64-'66 F100. The 1961 the 1960 bed was used on the F350. THe wheelbase on the 1961-1963 F-Series was 4" shorter than on the 1964-1966 models. There for the bed is different. Is there a resin caster that offer a 1964-1966 Wrongbed for a F100?

This car was the last one that Marcos Engineering Ltd. build in 2007 before the went out of business. The 2006 Marcos TSO GTC was powered by a 350 cui Chevrolet engine, had a 6 speed transmission. A rear diffuser, a racing suspension and racing brakes differ the GTC from the TSO GT. TSO GT or GT2 share the same front view therefor I also accept GT or GT2 as a correct answer The correct answer were sent in by: Ace-Garageguy matthijsgrit thatz4u Fabrux Congratulations
