  2. Serch images of 78 pontiac firebirds to answer your question they were silver,blue red any color really.
  3. Chevrolet used the x frame from 58 to 64 and 65 restarted the box frame.
  4. Heres something else, the median price of cars from 55-75 changed little after 1980 they tripeld the cost. my parents had to have the computer replaced 2x on one of their cars costing a bundle.
  5. Heres something to chew over watch tucker a man and his dream. many of todays safety ideas came in 1948! Oldsmobile had air bag opt in the early 70's on a few of their cars
  6. If memory serves me right amt retooled a 57 chevy add the bare metal with it and the pro shop came w/photo etched parts and rubber hoses. back in the late 60s early 70s a few corvette kits had real springs
  7. I think that its unfair to say that all car builders cheap some of us here have a fixed and or low imcome. and simply cant afford higher costing kits.
  8. Even if my wife could afford a new car or pickup we would not waste that much money on something that cost to much when it goes wrong. to have fixed.
  9. G.M. X- FRAME STARTED WHITH THE 58 TILL THE LAST YEAR BEING 64. NOW WITH THAT SAID if the car I was driving last friday was newer it would have been totaled.
  10. that depends on what year 63-74 have frame cancer we had a 64 in school the body and int were like new but the frame rotted into! gm.s x-frame wasnt a good choice that impala wouldnt make it with a 66 impala
  11. most of us know that gm's x frame setup isnt like a strait box frame.
  12. If I had that kind of money I'd buy a real car . a 57 chevy and still have alot leftover.
  13. We live across the road from a FORD dealer a 2012 explore can set you back 38,549-49,152 dollars! yikes. and we thought model prices were bad what you see from takeing a walk
  14. In my own defence I have bought both 66 wagons and el camino as big lots had the wagon for 6.99 I had to buy the el camino to get the stock parts thats how revell makes more money
  15. I have built 2 of them never had that problem if you have the 66 wagon the dash from one would work otherwise trim the sides down a tad.
  16. I agree they should of put in stock tire . with that said if they ever reissue the 66 chevelle wagon,I hope they issue it with stock wheels and hood from the 66 el camino.
  17. I haue the 90's issue cut out the engine and put the 66 cheuelle wagons motor and tranny ..I want the new one so I can kit-bash it with the 99 chevy pu
  18. Yep that one and to top it off didnt they do the samething again with a PT CRUISER?
  19. Didn't Talsa do the same thing in 1957 and unearthed a rusty junkheep.in 2007 ?
  20. To bad you couldn't buy it out and keep a hobby shop alive .
