i wonder if the grandmother and little girl were riding in the backseat of the car?
i think it looks more confused now than when you first got it. before it looked like an old hot rod trying to be a street rod, with what you've...
and after you drink it you have nothing to show for it but some empty cans and a beer belly. you basically pissed your 24 bucks away.
depends on what you had. Nascar stuff, not the older kits but the 90's and up stuff you can't give away. no idea what you had but it does have...
check the bottom of that advertisement for the poster offer. Arlington, Va? wonder if i can still get my poster for $1
the plastic model hobby is now an "adult" hobby with few young people or kids building. no big deal, times change and so do the interests of young...

most "generic" universal fit traction bars will have little to no effect. buy a set that's made for your car and you will be okay, i think you can...
awesome find! dropping the back down and swapping the slots on made a HUGE difference too. i think the Mickey mouse faces gotta go as well,...
another book from the same time i think is "Roar of Engines" by John Clarke. i read the book many times during my middle school years as it was in...
i'm not upset so why are you? just a question, but one to think about too;) most people seem to say the AWB thing was well and over by '67...
you built the car in '66 or the pic is supposed to be '66? how'd the '68-'69 GTX get in there?:) Dave
they know what they did and they are hoping you are just going to go away. the shop could care less about your business too. if they had been...
is it possible to brass plate an engine block? i think it was Mopar Collectors Guide that ran an article on the aluminum 318's. i could be...

thanks for the extra pics of the Impala and the background on it! looks like it was a pretty wild car. i wonder where it is today? the "Black...
nothing wrong with those front ends, just a different way of doing it. i always thought that Street Freaks were a trend of the 70's. a definite...
