I guess a lot of people like to know what their car will do.. I'm no different, Got 60 MPH out of my Town Sedan. The motor was moaning and I was a little freaked out.... actually pretty scared.

Problem solved.. it was as you said. Wired up wrong. It's good now. Thanks folks, Robert

She was getting a little warm but not too hot to touch.... we never ran it long enough to harm it. We were aware of what could happen !! Only ran it long enough to check our trouble shooting. On of the brushes was in backwards and not properly mating to the armature, etc , etc.... Thanks

I live in Nova Scotia Canada... a number of years back we toured the Parkway. Absolutely beautiful. I'll never forget it. We also spent some time in the Luray Caverns. Amazing spectacle... that was a trip of a life time.

40-45 creeping up to 50 on down hill runs.

Just wondering what blue you are using on your bumper clamps ? I used the Testors model paint number 1111. It looks pretty good but wondering if there is a shade that would be closer to the original ? Thanks folks, Robert

I would like to aquire what I think is a Canadian headlamp bar. These had a V-section bar rather than the round bar. Can any one shed light on this particular bar and perhaps point me in the right direction to be able to purchase one ?
