I thought you guys would get a kick out of my new rear tires for my rail buggy... It's only proper that I run a Cragar mag on my mud grip..LOL.. Got the buggy on all fours after a year of welding and rebuilding... Kind of a neat stage.   My buddy also has the molds to a Berry T C-Cab, and an extra body... I will add building one to my one-day list after I get my rat-bug dialed in, but how cool would one of these be?   The Rat Bug:  What 1:1 stuff are you guys working on this summer? |

Good Stuff Brandon, . . my only project is daughters 96 camaro. may pull the v6 to do some major repairs. . . . I don't even have one vehicle of my own anymore, I sold them all ! . . . even my chevy truck, I miss that truck, but it was just KILLING me on fuel cost's.
Your "bug" and "buggies" look like fun toys for sure. the "C"-cab would surely be KOOL.

Maaaan, that El Camino looks like it will be fun. What rearend and suspension are you going to run? Carburated 6.0 liter LQ4 / TH400 with reverse shift pattern and trans brake / coiled 4 link Chevy 12 bolt with 4:33 gears / 10" slicks. We're shooting for the low 10's to start, but we have the cage certified for 8.50. Their having a nostalgia weekend up at Havana, IL this weekend we were hoping to hit, but we'll just be spectators this time around. We got the shifter mounted tonight and have to button up the floor pans, wire it, final install of the motor and trans, do a little body work, and paint it. Our next goal is to hit the LS Fest down in Bowling Green KY this fall. |

Perfect. Glad to see the 10-inch tire. Most people go too big and it slows them down. I made two passes and went 10.91 in a mostly steel, small block-powered '63 Nova that I painted, with a line lock and trans brake when I lived in Bakersfield. You'll have a blast... that's awesome.

I just got this in the mail. It is a Riggen 1/32 slot car. I believe they called this one the "Ice Truck"  I know for sure the HO Riggen slot is called the "Ice Truck"  Marty Marysville, OH My buddy also has the molds to a Berry T C-Cab, and an extra body... I will add building one to my one-day list after I get my rat-bug dialed in, but how cool would one of these be? |
