No car shows. It's just my weekend toy. And mechanically it's stock. I added a modern stereo and aftermarket wheels, but as far as the engine/chassis/drivetrain, it's 100% stock... right down to the two-speed Powerglide automatic.
I find it impossible to believe that anyone can survive hitting a tree at 150. That's impossible, especially in an old car like that without "crumple zones" or any impact-absorbing technology.
HL is an arts and crafts store, like Michael's. They stock models, but models are not their main thing. Different HL locations have different models in stock, and the size of the model car area varies from one location to another.
