I would race My Suzuki 3 cyl Gt 750 against that Honda anytime anywhere. Both are magnificent machines. Mike

Best Ranchero Drag Racer that I have ever seen. The paint job is perfect not to shiny. It looks like it has been well taken care of since 1961 Luv those Traction Bars. Mike.

Where are the Knuckle Dragger security guards? Mike

My guess is all depends on the location of the shipper and delivery point. The weather from Texas to the East coast has been horrendous. Affecting everything not just the P.O

No tears for O.J Mike

Thanks, The Laguna was manufactured between 1973-1976. The Can AM was a one-year option on the 1977 LeMans I would like to see both as a kit. Mike

Very, Very, Nice! IMO the best looking F1 ever. Mike

I just read an article about the Pontiac Can-Am. Wasn't there a Chevy built to compete with the Can-AM? Mike

I lived in Chicago for 50 years. The road salt just ate up cars. A lot of cars were prone to rust right out of the factory. One of the solutions was to take your car to Ziebart, or trade it in every 3 years for a new car. Mike

I spent many hours of watching Bonehead Truckers while waiting to get loaded. Enjoy Bonehead Truckers - YouTube

This a very good article on the car Mike https://www.supercars.net/blog/1963-ford-galaxie-500-lightweigh

Kudo's for the great build and paint job. Mike

I agree it is the finished product that matters and how much painting skills one has. Mike

I just got this picture from Kustomrama. Too bad there wasn't a rear end photo. The red one could be a re-paint. Mike

I have been using it for ten years no problems. I spray it about 4 inches away. Good luck Mike

PM on the way.

Has anyone come thru yet? I have them. Mike

I tried using a soda bottle for my Corvette build it was too thick and would not conform to the curves. The frame was not strong enough. Using different types of glue and clamps did not help. Anyway, the pop bottles are great for flat windows. Mike

Would it be flexible enough to bend like this windshield? Mike

Model Master had a Glitter Metal Flake Clear. {not metallic}. Is there anyone making a Metal Flake Clear? Thanks Mike

Here is the history of the 223. 3d who knows The 215 grew to 223 cu in (3.7 L) for the 1954 F-Series. Output was now 115 hp (86 kW) in the trucks and 120 hp (89 kW) in the 1954 Ford cars. Power was up to 137 hp (102 kW) in the 1956 trucks. While not the popular engine option, the 223 cu in (4 L) was the only inline-six offered in the Fairlane (until 1961), Galaxie, and F-Series trucks between 1955 and 1964, causing it to be not quite a rarity, but not easy to come across. The 223 I-6 was also used in 1963–1964 Ford trucks, which also used the Autolite 1100 carburetor with stamping C4TF-E and produced 145 hp (108 kW) with 206 ft-lb of torque, and Mercury Meteor-Monterey in 1961. The 223 was also used in Onan 30EC generator sets and possibly others.[1]
