Why does no one cry for all the 58 plymouths mashed up for a certain movie? Dunno bout yall bout a 57 58 plymouth was a much nicer lookin car than a Charger

this here is my feeling on it I'd never known about a Charger had it not been for the Duke Boys .... My kids who are 10 and 8 know what a Charger is only because of that show Besides someone said around 300 wrecked Thats nothing compared to how many were made

Dang I wanna move someplace where Ford Unibodys are so plentiful ya just toss em away

Guys I got sidetracked again tonight and ended up eyeballing my Ecto 1 I'm thinking about turning it into an Ambulance. Finding pics aint seeming to be easy with all the ectos around lol . I didf find a Combo car but am leaning towards a full ambulance if possible. The kit is suposed to be a 59 MM Futra body. Anyone have any good pics of such car dressed in ambulance attire??

Thanks guys like I say just thought about it. May redo it someday but with the kits comin out it's gonna sit a while. Ian, sorry but the old girl isn't up for trade. The old ggirl been around since polar lights issued that kit. If anything happens to her she'll get turned into the ambulance she supposed to be lol

With all the buzz about the AMT van thats around now and the few posts I've seen of older versions I remembered this wreck. This is one of those old hopper setups I think it was Lindberg that did em in the 90s. This old things been sittin around for a while and eventually ended up on a Dodge truck chassis. I got to realizing how very similar this body is to the new kit ..... flat roof, port holes early grille and bumper ....... is this body related to the AMT ones ?? or does it just happen to be the same era van ??

While I was still at Walmart I keyed in the birthdate from the id no matter how old you were or looked. If the product called for id you were showing me your ID I don't care if you were 8 or 80. I wasn't getting busted for selling to someone underage. My wife got popped at the store she worked in for not carding a kid that looked old enough. Here the Law recruits kids to go into stores to try to purchase such things. I even carded a man in his 60s once for a tube of superglue. Wasn't gonna be no saying I did wrong

Yes the GT500 has different front brakes in it Also has different seats

this one scares me ....... You might just have too much engine when it is hanging out your headlights !!

Lol I like how everyone for years yelled " Man I wish new cars still looked like the old ones. man those cars had style these new ones don't.... So the Manufacturers try to go retro and get blasted for trying to bring the old styles back... We get mad when they kill the model name we love ... then blast them when they bring said model name back. Are we ever gonna make up our minds what we want ??

finally a couple of kits I can get excited about. I so want a Gremmie !! and ya can't have enough Vans lol

Well he did say I refuse to listen to anything from before '90 .... yet the song he says is so great is from the 70s........

Ya mean After 90 ?? cause the 70s were before '90 lol

yea well I used your "skip ahead button" to get to the 2:45 mark ..... I still never found the exciting part

ya mean I'd had to endured that for another Minute and a Half? ...... naw I'd probably died before the 2 minute mark

Yea that got boring after a minute or so

Lol and those pics do not help ya defense lol

Is the model done in chalkboard paint too?

Well considering it said the oil pan and bumper I'd assume it went in backwards not sideways. and 75 foot aint far for one to go .. Just measure skidmarks at an intersection those happen on dry pavement. Ice is a whole new animal Last year I spun my pickup on ice did about the same as he did spun and went off the road backwards I'm pretty sure I went farther than 75 foot off the road

Lol I like how nobody here has ever lost control of their car on ice and spun out And 75 Foot aint very far ... What 4 car lengths ??

Here's mine the Monogram 91 F250. 3 inch body lift to fit the custom made wheel and tire combo i made to replace the 1/2 ton wheels in the kit

Orrrr we could just dig into our parts boxes and pull out 4 matchin stock type tires. I'm pretty sure all of us have at least 1 set if not more.

Rom, glad to have ya back man. I also thought it was a bad thing bout the house but glad to hear it aint bad I forgot it was attached to ya business. And can't ya guys at least let the man get settled back in before yall start up the angry ban mob again??

Man Ol' boy aint to bright to be that close to those pipes hehe I think thats what the other people are trying to tell him
