I went last year, it was a great show, a big turn out. Unfortunately, I'll be out of town this year.

Once you identify which truck it is and the scale, which appears to be 1/10, which is the most common, you can grab any body in the scale. There are body mount posts that you can change the height of if needed. Www.towerhobbies.com and www.amainhobbies.com are good online hobby shops if you...

I used the Hemi pan from 440Source in my Duster, it required 73+ steering, and some persuading with a BFH to clear the idler arm.

I did, they fit great. These are Nitto 555Rs.

Didn't roadkill garage switch the crop duster gears from 4.10 to 3.23 and it still ran the same ET and MPH?

That's a good point, I believe the Hemi was designed around 89 octane, how many people actually run that? I used to when I towed, but I tow so often that I was spending a fortune on migrade now that's it's $1 a gallon more than regular, so I went back to regular.

I would tend to agree with you, however, I do not know what gear is considered OD in the 8 speed? Is it all of them with an OD ratio, or is it just 8, or does tow haul prevent the torque converter from locking up? I place mine (5.7/8speed/3.23) in tow haul mode, it definitely holds the shifts...

I've thought about headers a few times for mine. I think the cheapest ones are about a grand for shorties. It only takes about 90 minutes per side to do the manifolds now, and the bolts are free with the lifetime warranty, so I pick a weekend and spend the 3 hours swapping out both sides...

Gas is a lot cheaper than a second vehicle that's $45k+.

I don't think you are too far off. I have a 2015 Laramie crew cab, since new I only manage to get 15-17mpg empty with a mix of city and highway driving. Pulling my Jeep on an open trailer (maybe 6000 lbs) I would get 11-12, towing a 4500lb travel trailer I would get 10, amd with my current...

I don't have experience with their serpentine setup, but when I ordered their v belt kit, the crank pulley that came in the kit was tiny. I had to order a different larger one separately, which cost more than I expected. Double check the pulley diameters before ordering.

Summit customer service is pretty good. Call them and say you forgot to use your coupon code, I bet they'll take it from you and adjust your order.

Looks like I get a $100 gift card to the parts store, and a gift box from Meguires worth about $250 and a page in the calendar. Not bad for a free entry!

Yes, yes, no. The VW bug had almost 1000 votes so he took first. I think that 65 Riviera is in TACC, he made it as well.

Woohoo! Thanks for the help guys, I came in second place, beating my buddy by 3 votes at the last minute! I'll try to remember to post when the calendars are available, they are free at Auto Value stores.

I think I might try a 225/something as my next tire, just to get a little more rubber. It's easy enough to crank the torsion bars slightly if I need a little more height. So far they seem pretty good, they are a little less grippy than the ET Street SS I had before, but they look like they...

Last day to vote guys, let's finish strong! I appreciate all the help

I spent some time looking for options on a 28x12 and ended up going with a Nitto 555R since they were about $75 less than the Mickey ET Streets in the same size. I was hoping to go more of a street tire, but I'm limited by the size of the wheel (17x11), but the Nittos appear less aggressive...

Thanks everyone, I got a new department at work to put in some votes too and got back into third today. Appreciate the help, only 2 days left!!

Looks like I dropped from 3rd to 7th overnight with a couple close behind. I appreciate the votes you guys have given me, but it looks like I might need a good amount more to stay in the running.

It's Q4 Light Turquoise Iridescent. 69 Dodge 1 year only color.

If I keep going up at this rate, I should be good for making the calendar, but don't give up now. Thanks guys!! Next year I'll pick a better picture.

I'm trying, I think I'm in 4th. I'm running out of people to ask to vote!!!

That's pretty cool, It could use a good cleaning, as could my daily.

Here's a few other photos of my car that were contenders to submit most of which I like better, but they didn't meet the minimum file size requirements. I need to crank up the settings on my camera to have more choices next time.

I bet he has a bunch of online VW forums voting for him. Whoever would do such a thing? :lol:

It's an older chain of parts stores around here. I think our local Pep Boys is an Auto Value and the small parts store in my town is one too.

Thanks everyone! That Purple Cuda, Purple Challenger, Silver Charger, Tan/Brown Demon and Escalade pickup are all buddies as well so feel free to toss them a few votes if you'd like too!

I assume the top 12 will make it, but I won't complain with being in the lead!! It has to be 24 hours between votes.
