  1. the bike is a good candidate for the Coon Tail award.
  2. Thats the reason I moved out of California 15 years ago. when the epa came in and made everyone comply with their voc laws, I was doing more paperwork than painting. I moved to Idaho to live in a free society. Years ago we used lighter fluid to strip paint from plastic. I doubt that it's still formulated the same anymore. Anyone tried it lately?
  3. 56 Chevy 265 engines absolutely do have oil filters. I've owned three of them.The '55 was the only small block without a filter.Chevy blocks also had the blocks drilled for front mounts till at least '65, Including 409's( I put one in my first '56).
  4. jah, you might consider moving to Idaho,as the housing prices are very low compared with what you get.you can get a huge house for under 200k.Also, a lot of houses have shops., so you would have lots of room.
  5. a sunburst Strat! Now thats class!!
  6. who makes the Duvall windshield?
  7. Did you scratch build the tools? If you did, you need to do an article on making them. I'd love to see how you did it!!!

  21. Hi. been lurking long enough and its time to come out and say hi. i've been building since i was 10, and now i'm 60 and never really got past the thread for plug wire stage. since i've been watching the forum, Ive learned a lot and after a long lay off will start building again as soon as my bench is finished. this forum is a gas
  22. I think you should build the huey and enter it in the chopper buildoff
  23. it would be great if they would offer a kit with a panhead or knucklehead motor instead of the evolution in the other kits
  24. By the way. I've been building models since i was six. I'm 60 now and rediscovering building again. this forum is great!!!!!!
  25. I just fill the bathroom sink with hot water and let it soak. take it out once in a while and shake it to get all the paint warm. been doing this for 30 yrs.
