Anyone know for sure? They were made in the 60s but not by Mosrite, just used parts from Mosrite. This page claims they were Dutch striped and it...
Roth did get the idea from Stanley Mouse. I find that Mouse setup a studio in 1959. I thought that was rather early for a hillbilly crash helmet...
It is in a video, go to Motornation.tv and see for yourself.
Was watching the 1959 Hot Rod Nationals and at the end saw someone wearing a hillbilly crash helmet. I know Stanley Mouse also wore then, but in...
Truly the best option in a perfect world!
Brad54, is this still on? I have not seen anything posted here about it. I need a new (actually 50+ years OLD) truck, my wife blew up my late...
Haha! I haven't been resident of Massachusetts in about 20 years and this thread is prime evidence as to WHY! When I grew up there one only had to...
and airbags, you really MUST put airbags in your hot rod! *sigh* This is NOT the country I was born in.....
Sure a lot of hate now that one can actually buy BRAND NEW steel bodies for 70+ year old cars! I doubt that the powers that be will even ALLOW...
Yeah, 8 for $7.99 from the same factory in China. If I find something I like from Eastwood I surf the web until I find the SAME item for much less...

I can put it in MUCH simpler terms: poor management. That is the #1 reason companies go under and yet it seems never is blamed for causing it......

This is it, except I would go a little earlier than 55.....
Yeah, some of us don't post often, no desire for the drama but love to see the build pics and home made shop equipment and rare parts.....
This is the attitude that will cause and require eventual bloodshed..... I am NOT a slave and MY possessions are MINE! More and more of the public...
Here's another angle for y'all. If people didn't do this to cars, letting them sit forever in their yard, think of how many LESS cars we like...
Volume, SERIOUS volume! Prices on these repros might be a LITTLE high, but no one is getting rich off these things due to, again, volume. Good...
Looking at the first page I see that people were already v8ing the new Falcons.....
I could use the Desoto files too! Have a 330 and 276.... thanks, DJ
