  1. thanx Steve.. I knew it was something like that, I just couldn't pin it down... tooo long ago for this old brain...
  2. I realize that, that's also why a Cheetah never won a race!!!

    My 3d Art

    oh my!!!! that 33, 34, the blue one... melts my butter....
  4. is this the 'Stang from the movie Cherry 2000?? nicely done..
  5. well, first I would build a nice, big, a-frame garage for all the cool cars/bikes I'm gonna get... give both my daughters a mill or two, hell maybe even my brother-in-law to...then just sit back and PLAY!!!!
  6. also, IIRC, didn't they have to run with the CanAm cars because of the limited production or some such BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH...
  7. I've got both, the R&D Unique Mini Exotics and the modelhaus offering... haven't 'done' the one from modelhaus yet, but... here's the MiniExotics version... I had the 'cheetah's always win' decals made up...gots a BUNCH of them, 2 sheets...lol
  8. maybe fill in the rest of the story about the PuttyThrower's National contest that nobody showed up to...lol
  9. that's my b-day!!! hmmm, CBus is about an hour 10 from Cincy...
  10. very nice Deuce and a Quarter!!!
  11. GM sacrificed Saturn for Buick...all the new Saturns [Opels/Holdens] went to Buick to keep them alive... the ONLY reason Buick is still here is the $$$ they get in China, Buick sells more in China than the US...!!!
  12. Krylon is a fairly 'hot' paint and will craze plastic like crazy unless you use a 'sandable primer' before you add color...me, I like PlastiCote T235 [grey] and, if you use an 'enamel' primer, it WILL react to the hot paints... gotta use a lacquer primer [sandable]...
  13. after 35+ years in the parts biz[at the Dealer level] just recently retired...still gots no time!!! lol
  14. no fair!!! lol
  15. yeah, get BOTH the red label and the blue label MicroSol...the red label is the 'hotter' stuff, like you would use on the hood...now, along with the solvent, use a hair dryer after you gently 'paint' the solvent on the decal after you apply the decal...the heat from the hair dryer will shrink the decals to fit...once you put the MicroSol on the decal, DON'T MESS WITH THE DECAL, the creases WILL come out with heat... the blue label MicroSol is good for the roof/decklid stripes and just about any other decal applications...
  16. that's identical to my EX's 1st car... her's had a 318 tho'.....really,really lit up those skinny C78-14's...lol
  17. the trick head for the day was from Cay Sissel...twin plug, crossflow, BIG hp... and the 6 in my 51[pic] is from the kit...
  18. sadly, I don't get ANY mags anymore...
  19. 292's saw a lot of action at the dirt tracks around here back in the day.....
  20. I really liked Wendell...he was a racers racer... try and wreck ya in the race, but, would also be the first one in line to help fix something to... KUDOS....nicely done..
  21. I snagged the carbs from a '53 Vette parts kit I had laying around, put a magneto on it...
  22. here's my take on toooners...lol
  23. yep, he opened for EC in Columbus, Oh about 5 years ago April, it SNOWED!!!...daughters had gotten me a TICKET for Xmas...
  24. I've found that depending what size you need, you can/could use the 'small cap' from spray paint and cut in half...
