Great looking Mack.

Sure are a lot of car songs, or songs that mention cars out there. Guess that just goes to show how important cars are in Western culture.

Ah, so that's possibly the type of car in the garage. Weren't Polaras used by some police departments? Never really thought of the Dodge 330 or Polara as a muscle car.

Keith, what I'm asking is what is the "brand new shiny red Super-Stock Dodge" parked in the little old lady's garage?

Jon, interesting. So was that a factory option?

So recently I have been on a muscle car kick, and have been purchasing some muscle car kits from The Big Four. I have found some inspiration for a couple of my builds from TV and music, particularly the 1969 Dodge Charger R/T from The Dukes of Hazzard, and a planned 1964 Pontiac GTO from G.T.O. (1964) by Ronny and the Daytonas. Now, I know that there are lots of cars in media from many different eras (like the 1967 Mustang Fastback in Bullitt); but what really got me thinking were that cars sung about in the 1960s era car songs. Some I have figured out. Little Duce Coupe (1963) by the Beach Boys is about a 1932 Ford Coupe hot rod, but the song that got me thinking about this tonight was The Little Old Lady (from Pasadena) (1964) by Jan and Dean. (Yes, it was also performed by The Beach Boys). The lyric that sparked my interest is "But parked in a rickety old garage, Is a brand new shiny red Super-Stock Dodge". Now, if the song was written & released in the Spring of 1964, my question to the Forum is: "What is the 1964 Super-Stock Dodge they are singing about? Could it be a Charger?" Anyway, see what happens when you have a long drive? Interesting bit of trivia: the B-side to Jan and Dean's The Little Old Lady (from Pasadena) is My Mighty G.T.O.

Great looking Chevelle, Tom.. Very well done. Glad I got to see it today at Cicero.

What? No Coca-Cola decals?

I'm still surprised they didn't Coca-Cola the Autocar A64B.

Of all the Coca-Cola models, this one I just might consider.

Oh you have got to be kidding me!

Fantastic job all around! Very well done.

Great looking Tiger. Very well done.

That looks great.

Looks like it'll be molded in white this time instead of the god-awful red like last time.

Those are some nice looking door cranks.

Isn't that similar to the sleeper on Snowman's GMC General in Smokey & the Bandit II:

Nice looking dragger. Well done.

Great looking Nova. Well done.

That's one big Mack. Nice job.

I saw an article last week about the Army accepting the Mack Granite as the new M917A3 HDT. Here's an article from June 11, 2019: https://armyupdate.com/index.php/2019/06/11/army-mack-heavy-dump-trucks/

Nice looking LN8000. Hey, Robbie had to get around some how, right?

Nicely done, Mike. My WIP K100 had a run in with a cat & a mole. Cats: 2; Trucks: 0.

Nice looking Bel Air.

Yes, yes they do.
