Sixties Super Stocks Cars Jan 9, 2012 2:21:23 GMT -5

Sixties Super Stock cars are arguably vintage drag cars but then the whole point was that they were factory stock (at least up until they started altering the wheelbases).
So how do we feel about builds of Don Nicholson's '61 & '62 409s, Arnie Beswick's '62 Catalina and Shirley Shahan's '67 Coronet?
TRaKable or not?

Fred Maillardet. No, the other one.

I am totally fine with them. There have been several posted over the years here. They are vintage drag cars, no matter their stock status at the track.
The only types I kinda cringe at are stock vehicles with slicks....better have some decals, harness and other drag stuff....or it's just stock with slicks.

I've just read Larry Davis' Super Stock book and it's fired me up to build some of the SS kits i've been buying up. First off the line is the Lindberg Dyno Don '61 Impala.

krassandbernie: I've posted some really cool stuff here on this board recently with little response......this place is on life support! Nov 4, 2024 20:17:16 GMT -5

Mr409: Posting has been a bit slow here lately. It's a shame, in my opinion this is the best modeling site around. I, myself, have one barely un-TRaKable project going on at the moment, once that's done I'll get back to work on some of my TRaKable projects... Nov 6, 2024 12:54:58 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: it has been a bit slow, but i come everyday. i am so close to being able to build and hope that things pick up again i miss this place! Nov 9, 2024 22:04:22 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: I paid up three more years on fotki, it's been 20yrs already! Nov 11, 2024 23:16:53 GMT -5

Mr. Metallic: it's been about that long for me too Bob Nov 15, 2024 7:55:05 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: with facebook and instagram, it amazed me how many people stopped paying for storage and so many great memories are lost. i will not do that. Nov 17, 2024 13:31:07 GMT -5

Mr409: My Fotki is since 14 years. It indeed is a bummer how many pics are gone from old threads. I will also try to keep mine up there, but I also don't have any desire to go to FB or Instagram either.

Nov 17, 2024 17:50:56 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: facebook has it's ups, but i really like to share here when i am building. it matters to me what is said here more than anywhere else. Nov 17, 2024 22:07:19 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: just want to wish everyone a happy safe holiday season! it's among us Nov 22, 2024 22:57:44 GMT -5

EchoBravoSierra: Everything on FB is ephemeral. I'm sure it still exists, but finding it is near impossible if it was posted in a group. I had an idea bumping around in my head and realized it was because of someone's build here, and I found the thread to re-read through Nov 27, 2024 12:31:14 GMT -5

EchoBravoSierra: Good luck finding anything more than a few days old on a FB group. Nov 27, 2024 12:31:44 GMT -5
