Sound reeeaaallyyy boring 😂 I’ll give ya 100 bucks for it. It would go well next to my petrol head mothers LSX powered, red and white 2 door 55 The 55 Chevy is my dream car. In red and white. My first car was a 54 Chevy 150 Utility Sedan... missed it by a year! I built the 235 up, lowered it, nosed...

Screw the VW show us the chev in the back ground 😜 That thing? It's kinda boring actually. It's my friend's 1956 Chevy. He inherited it from his grandfather, who bought it used in 1967, drove it for a bit, then parked it and decided to put a V8 in it, but never finished it. We pulled it out of a ba...

That's it! Seeing how much is missing, and impossible to find, the price is too much I think. Although... with a Frog transmission and rear suspension setup...

Got some time to finish up the cage and fuel cell mounts on the Class 11 I'm building.

Ok vintage gurus... what was this thing? It's for sale, and for some reason, I want to buy it... maybe it's the idea of "Vintage Gold Pan"

Where in Norcal? I'm in Santa Rosa...

That's the stuff I use.

These are the wheels. I soaked them in dollar store bleach for a few hours, and gave them a quick wipe down with a rag. No scrubbing involved. It's an old trick I learned building static model kits. Yours turned out nice. Soaked mine in the bleach for a few hours, twice. But they're a weird yellowi...

They came out reasonably well. Definitely good enough for a runner... when the truck is finally running. I *might* dye them again when I have more time. I was kind of rushed. I think if I had let them stay in the dye longer, they would've ended up more even.

Touring cars are pretty fun. There's a lot of pavement in the world. That looks like a pretty sweet setup. You can always sell it later.... Thanks! I always say the same thing - I can sell it later - but strangely, I can't. The only car I've actually sold through all my time in the hobby was an Axi...

I replied to a craigslist ad for a guy wanting to sell off his RC stuff. Mostly Traxxas, some Redcat, nothing really too desirable. Off to the side there was a bin with some tires, and sitting in it was a rough looking touring car. It looked like a mostly complete roller, so I asked him how much he ...

Well... it's a runner. I stuffed a Reedy 3300kv brushless setup from a DR10 in it, and was able to drive it around the yard today. What an absolute joy to drive! I haven't glued the rear tires yet, when I get the body painted, I want to take some nice pics of it, and just in case I make a mess of gl...

I have always wanted a Sand Scorcher. I honestly think this is why I build full size VWs. Nice score and looks great.

I wish I could afford hardware store bleach.
