Ace Hardware carries some A286 alloy stainless nuts, bolts & washers. Maybe not in all stores. But they should be strong enough.
Wow... are reprints or old issues of that available?
I believe the OG run was in light blue. There was black and then red, now the last I saw is white. Lindberg wound up with issuing an iteration...
Ted Wells was the 352 master in the late 1960s. He even made his own intake manifolds. I wish I had an old issue of Car Craft, it had a great...
I got one for my 9th birthday in 1964. It was molded in light blue. We had snow the next day.. no school. I built most of it in my bed that...
I use a CPP distribution block that has a Ford type pressure switch on my Ford. Summit sells them too. My personal opinion, avoid using...
IIRC, the cutoff for civilian trucks was March of 1943.
I had a neighbor with a 6V Plymouth around 1967. The car was not garaged. I recall him placing an electric blanket over the engine with an...
My "new" model area is taking shape. I decided to cede my dining room table back to the house. I'm back in my finished basement once again.
I'm considering cataract-lasik surgery for my vision improvement. They can tailor the surgery to make it good for closer type hobby work. I'd...
My dad had a neighbor up the block, I got to know the guy. He was a mechanic for an exotic car dealership. Quite capable too. He put up a big...
Do they make roll pins that big?
In...[ATTACH]
I have to dig mine out. I believe it was out of a boat.
I did one years back using a 6 lug Suburban rear. The width was very close tobthe old rear. Perches were machined out of rectangular tubing.
This is one of my girlfriend Jo by someone's triple black Torino outside of a restaurant over the summer. [ATTACH]
Bummer. I went without a garage for a very long time, I built and stored stock cars outside under tarps... no fun!
Nice color! I have one I got at a recent model show, no box, complete for $10. I was selling a Replicas & Miniatures of Maryland resin Carson...
Do you have a flyer for the show that you can post? I'm not that far away. Thanks!
I have a few deeds left to the Brooklyn Bridge. Let me know if you are interested .
I will take 2 of those!
I do the same. I use a big red cup of CA to about 5 gallons of water. Always leave it outside if possible. Used inside, I've had metals close by...
Getting there... I was talking about a radius in the front plane, viewed from the top. Trace a 40 oz beer bottle bottom over it.
I had a '65 Belair I beat like a rented mule. It leaked more than it burned. The 327 was north of 220k miles. The oil light would come on as I...
I find that the TS sprays don't hold up to handling that well. So if you have a lot of test fitting to do, wait to paint or use something more...
Avoid hardware store paints. I start with a good primer, automotive grade. Deplicolor, SEM, Transtar. Good hobby primers I use are Mr. Surfacer...
Y'all seen this, but done with Extreme Lacquer. No clear, it came out shiny enough. Their gloss clear is quite good too. The Demon was done...
Generate a radius across tye fronts perhaps. Combined with what you did on the prototype. They need to be a tad shorted, front to back.
I would put a piece of black electrical tape over the idiot light and run it. Many moons ago there was a product, Alemite CD2. Great to reduce...
