  1. The headers are the fenderwell units from the JoHan Mopes, the ones from the 64 Dodge I would imagine, they're in the 64 Dodge "Recharged"kit. The body is the old MPC 32 chevy Cabriolet with the roof added! I know caz I gave him the idea! But HIS turned out REALLY GREAT. Me, and Chuck Most are building one too, but seein as how i can't post pics You'll just hafte see theirs to get the idea of what we were tryin to accomplish. Gotta admit his DID come out really nice, din't it? Great build, Bill, as usual!
  2. My son in law is a 10 yr,veteran Firefighter. He is a PRIDE to me, an I call him MY hero. He had always wanted to be a firefighter, and his parents backed him up on it, so that's what he is, and a GOOD one too. He has refused Promotions JUST so he can work the fires an support "The Guys" (his fellow firefighters)He says rank'll just keep him from doing his job, and never haveing been one(Firefighter) i can't think of GOING INTO a fire (Unless someone I LOVED was in there)much less wanna TELL guys to do it! I wish him ALL the luck in the world, i hope he enjoys military life, and does you proud! Tell him Congrats from one of your forum brothers.
  3. Looks like a winner ta me! I know I'll be gettin at least two of them, one for one of my first cars(I used the 283 in it fir my 52) And another to do my Godfathers turquise Impala! Glad they FINALLY brought out a hardtop!
  4. BRAVO Jairus! EXCELLENTLY spoken !!!!(or typed, rather!)!
  5. Tom, I don't beleive there WAS a body stlye difference between a normal Cutlass an a 442. other than little trim stuff. I looked at some LeMans's after I saw your first post, an that front bumper/grille would be the hardest most major alteration. you'd probably hafta use TWO kits, one to mod the front end, and the other to install it on! I DO have an extra front end off a 72 that you could have if you wanted to try to mod it. just PM me with your addy and I'll send ya that rascal!

  15. Rick, the speedboat is an AMT kit, it's just a regular ol speedboat. The JET DRIVE is what makes it UNIQUE!! Those are made and cast by our own Steve Perry! He got pictures of his brothers Jet drive out in Cali, and he made them on a cad/cam machine at work. They ARE for sale at about 15 bucks for a set. You get the Jet Drive, transfer case,intake, and 3 transom mounts. They're EXTREMELY well done, and VERY accurate. If you'd like, PM me your Addy, an when we meet again at our club meeting I'll try to get you a set. Steve doesn't have a website as of yet, but he always brings them to our meetings. Check out the Ford Van in the pictures, That's one of his project too. It'll be just as close to the real thing as you can get!
  16. Kodiak, long time no see,buddy! GREAT way to make an apperance! That's lookin REAL good, but I wonder if laceing the rigging on that boom didn't make ya crazy? REAL nice job on it Doug, looks like it JUST rolled out the dealers showroom! GREAT BUILD!!!
