    Model building, much like full-size hot-rodding, can be an exercise in imagination and building out your dreams. In this episode, Steve introduces us to the fever dream that is Funny Car Folk Art as he explores the altered-wheelbase movement of the mid '60s, gasser stylings, and the big-block power of the '67 Chevelle.

    Steve builds the origin story of the 1960s Wheelstanders movement, the Little Red Wagon. He knows how to make a good kit great as he bashes together the mid-engine wheelie machine that accidently turned Dodge's flailing marketing campaign into a long-running cultural phenomenon.
