Can you believe it? Are they going to repro all the great 60-70's cars? Pretty soon you'll be able to build any year you want all with repro parts. (not sure if that is good or bad to tell you the truth) So far, I believe the 57 Chevy, 67 Camaro, 69 Camaro and now the 70-72 Chevelle bodies are out or soon to be. Of course, you better have deep pockets to buy one. Just goes to show ...

I had a quick question that may seem dumb but how do you guys ship your items? Do you take it to the UPS store and ship them? Could the person i sell somthing to set up the shipping? thanks guys BigBlockWilly

...... I have no information on this picture. I just had to post it for everyone to see. I particularly like the lion in the side car. I think I'll see if I can get one to ride in my 62.

I know this isn't one of "our" cars but we have a lot of street rodders here who might enjoy seeing this!! I made a trip about 3 weeks ago to deliver parts to a customer. On the way home, I stopped by a friend's house. Marc and I graduated from high school together in 1962. In fact, he was the one who, as a senior, got me interested in cars. So I can blame him for most of my failings in ...

I'm thinking the cabinet itself might be a good start for that price, then make improvements....
