One o' these... Couple these... And a couple more sets of Herb Deeks PE wire-wheel conversion kits...one of which will go under the Ferrari.

Had to back-trace her, and even that wasn't as straightforward as usual. Very pretty girl, and I much prefer this look for her over the more familiar one.

Rook much rike Minirites...but onry 4-bort hub...

It's not cheating unless you DO post the answer and pretend you didn't reverse-image search it.

I'm somewhat aware of all of the 'surface' problems and issues, but last time I checked, the Catholic Church didn't appear to be tottering on the verge of bankruptcy. The thing is, 50 years ago, it was entirely possible to get a decent primary education pretty easily. In this supposedly so much 'better' computer-controlled, connected and app-dependent time, it's becoming impossible. Yes, there are difficulties. There have ALWAYS been difficulties. And a reasonably intelligent society should be able to deal with them as effectively as they did half a century ago. The key words here are "reasonably intelligent".

So, looks like you're fcrewed no matter where you try to get a primary education. There just isn't one to be had from most public schools anymore, and the parochial schools are apparently bleeding the parents white, one little paper cut at a time. Like I keep sayin', something is VERY wrong with jus' 'bout everythin' these days.

Yoley moley. Talk about a collection of styling click-cheese...

WONDERFUL! I love all things aviation from this period, and Porco Rosso is one of my favorite films. Most excellent sir. The Supermarine S6B was another notable racing plane of the time, won the Schneider Trophy, and, designed by Reggie Mitchell, was the forerunner of the WW II Spitfire in many ways. And here's the Porco Rosso trailer (sorry it's not in English)

Very nice. The wide-5 wheels are another rarely seen and unusual touch.

Did the wings flutter and come off in flight unexpectedly? If I recall correctly, that was one of the Electra's endearing features.

Couple times I've seen several people in it, I've logged on...only to hear the crickets chirping and watch the others log off. I guess my virtual feet stink.

Friend of mine rescued a cat that he found wandering around dazed and scared after someone had poured glue all over it. I've seen a lot worse. I swear, if I caught someone mistreating an animal like that, they'd never find the body. But the SOB would learn a little of what it feels like before he died. The really awful part is that people do it to children too.

Nice! Like the choice of colors and detail bits too.

Holy cow. i had NO idea IMC ever made an Avenger kit. Gots to get one now. I had a real one about 1000 years back with a Corvair 140 on a VW pan. Total POS, heavy, awful fiberglass, rattles, fumes, leaks everywhere...but great fun. Of course if you parked it, when you came back there was always some bozo explaining to his awestruck girlfriend that it was a Ford GT race car. Nothing ever changes, I guess.

LOOK at the photos of the real blocks. The block needs to be modified to look like the real one. That huge ledge at the rear of the driver's side of the model block isn't there on a real block. There's also not as much meat at the front of the passenger side of a real block as there is on the model block. LOOK and compare the shapes. The heads, though weak in detail, don't show much once the whole thing is put together anyway, but MeatMan has a good idea if you don't want to screw around doing a lot of mods to a carppy engine. I suggest this one. It'll pass for a 350, it's a real beauty, and you can get 'em cheap on ebay.

YES! Nice proportions. Only thing wrong for a late-'50s altered would be the trans. The basic design of trans attached to the Revell ('29 Ford) Buick nailhead engine didn't debut until about 1964. The trans in the SWC Willys kit is based on an earlier design GM unit, and would be more appropriate, though a manual gearbox would have been more likely in the late '50s.

Not a clue. Curiosity got the better of me, so I looked it up. Who'd a thunk.

Slusher's clue stated she was in an Elvis movie and a '60s TV series. I went down the list of Elvis' girls, recognized the name "Pat Priest" but didn't know where from. Googled it, came up with the Munsters tie-in. Here's another pic of her obviously shot the same day as the one Slusher posted.
