The Ford Model T (colloquially known as the "tin Lizzie", "leaping Lena", "jitney" or "flivver") is an automobile produced by Ford Motor Company from October 1, 1908, to May 26, 1927.[10][11] It is generally regarded as the first affordable automobile, which made car travel available to middle-class Americans.
The Ford Model T was named the most influential car of the 20th century in the 1999 Car of the Century competition, ahead of the BMC Mini, Citroën DS, and Volkswagen Beetle.[13] Ford's Model T was successful not only because it provided inexpensive transportation on a massive scale, but also because the car signified innovation for the rising middle class and became a powerful symbol of the United States' age of modernization.[14] With 15 million sold, it stood eighth on the top-ten list of most sold cars of all time, as of 2012.
The hemispherical head design was revived in 1964. These were the first engines officially designated Hemi, a name Chrysler had trademarked. Chrysler Hemi engines of this generation displaced 426 cu in (7.0 L). Just 11,000 Hemi engines were ultimately produced for consumer sale due to their relatively high cost and the sheer size of the engine bay required to fit it in. The 426 Hemi was nicknamed the "elephant engine"[19] at the time, a reference to its high power, heavy weight and large physical dimensions. Its 10.72 in (272.3 mm) deck height and 4.80 in (121.9 mm) bore spacing made it the biggest engine in racing at the time.
The 426 Hemi was not allowed to compete in NASCAR's 1965 season due to its unavailability in production vehicles sold to the general public and because of complaints by Ford regarding its power. However several special production versions of the Dodge Dart, the Plymouth Fury, and later, in 1965, the Dodge Coronet.
Chrysler introduced the "Street" Hemi in 1966 for its intermediate range of cars and sold the required number of Hemi engines to the public to homologate its use for stock car racing in NASCAR events in 1966. The "Street Hemi" was similar to the race Hemi but with an inline 2X4-bbl induction system (with automatic choke), lower compression (10.25:1 from 12.5:1) and lower-lift camshaft, with iron exhaust manifolds instead of lighter steel long tube headers.[citation needed]
There were many differences between the Hemi and the Wedge-head big-block, including main cross-bolted bearing caps and a different head bolt pattern. Although all manufacturers were familiar with multi-valve engines and hemispherical combustion chambers, adding more valves per cylinder and designing the complex valvetrain they require were expensive ways of improving the high-revolutions per minute (rpm) breathing of production vehicles. By canting the angle of the NASCAR-mandated two valves per cylinder, significantly larger valves could be used. The Chrysler 426 Hemi and all Chrysler RBs had oversquare bore and strokes. Specifically, the 426 Hemi and 426 Wedge had a bore x stroke of 4 1⁄4 in × 3 3⁄4 in (108.0 mm × 95.3 mm).
The 426 Hemi, in "street Hemi" form, was produced for consumer automobiles from 1965 through 1971. Hemi-powered Dodge and Plymouth cars produced in the model years of 1965 through 1971 have become collector's items. For example, a 1971 Plymouth Barracuda Convertible equipped with the 426 Hemi engine sold at auction for US$3.5 million in 2014.

Hey Chris, I really enjoyed this build as usual. Painting the frame the chrome paint looks amazing. Chris I build quite a few kits and watch several different channels that are dedicated to modeling. All I can say is I appreciate how you are always so positive and have a great sense of humor. This is such a fun rewarding hobby, that our young people that are interested in the hobby needs the example that you set. To build the kit the way you want and to have fun , that's what it's all about. Thank you for all of your great builds and great tips. I learn something new from you all the time. Also thank you for the best channel on you tube in my opinion. Take care. Happy modeling!!

I built this kit when I was 10 years old in 1971, and there were certainly pins/bosses on those struts to hinge the top open. Don't remember as much chrome back then, but it was 50 years ago and my memory fades... I wonder if I should buy another one and build it right this time?
The reason why there's a tail light is so the starting line can see when cars are off the track so the next pair could go. Back in the old days, (and some tracks now) when racing at night at dragstrips, the shutdown areas were not well lit.

Thanks, yup, all the time. If they are nice and wet you can usually just line them back up.
On drag cars ... door slammer to Top fuel, it's required for a tail light so if your racing at night the track crew, safety personnel, and other racers to see you.... only one tail light is required...

Chris another great build 👍. Do you recommend rustoleum spray paints or krylon? Are the ok for use on plastic models in you opinion? Thanks, George
@hpiguy
3 жыл бұрын
I use both. I always lay a primer as you can see in the videos so that the paint can't harm the plastic.
Did you choose Oval Ford Blue?
Why didnt you add body hinge pins.
On the pins for the top, can those be replicated if the area they are at is drilled out and styrene rod placed in the hole for a pin and a more secure top?
