Man, this thing is pretty sweet!

Not sure if you guys have seen this- I got this catalog in the mail called "Hot Rod Hardware" or something like that, their website is http://www.genuinehotrod.com. They have these 1/6 scale replica engines, they got a bunch of different ones...I saw this one on there (1960's-era Top Fuel Hemi engine) and figured hell, for $30 I'd see what it was like. Well, I got it today (after a long backorder) and man, this thing is bigger than I was expecting...it's pretty cool too! I might order the Ford 427 next :)

I put the snapple bottle in the pic for a size comparison.

Well, I originall ordered a T-shirt and that engine...the T-shirt got here pretty quick, within a week I'd say. The engine was on backorder for about 2 months though.

Cool, I actually just talked to a sales rep on the phone. He said they have a warehouse in westlake, oh (cleveland more or less), so it would be here sooner than later.
