My ex had a '65 Falcon with the 170 and 3 on the tree. This was around 1977. We split up and she sold it cheap to spite me. Radio delete, black outside, red inside. It got 28 mpg constantly.

We used to get those dittos with numbers 1 to 9 vertically and horizontally. Practice made perfect. I had OCD, ADD and dyslexia working against me. I had to learn how to learn on my own. I took those skills all through school and into college.

People believe what the idiot box in their living room tells them to do. Save the world, buy an EV. Although some come with rebates and so on, they are no bargain. The news and manufacturers gloss over what it really takes to make an EV battery. Virtually tons of raw ore is mined to make that 500-700 lb battery. Then it has to be processed and refined.

I have one 5 window version started (BACK IN THE BOX!!) and got as far as getting the top section on and sorted out. It was a bit of work. -
Being thankful for this forum.....

I used to talk about how I perceived flaws in my work back around 2000 when I was back in the hobby. One very experienced builder in the club took me around at a contest. He showed me some builds of highly respected builders and pointed out the flaws in those builds. FB builders run the gamut from the novice to real artists. I have gotten some ideas that I would have not seen otherwise. -

I think that certain current political "files" release nonsense was based on the Oak Island model.

I saw one meme... 2 sports betting junkies were betting on how many rings it took before Gamblers Anonymous picked up their phone call...

beating the carpet monster
bobss396 replied to rattle can man's topic in Tips, Tricks, and Tutorials
I lost a steering wheel for a '59 Chevy, on my kitchen floor. I crawled all over looked under the radiator... nothing. Months later we were doing the kitchen over... I took great pains to dissect the entire area where the part was lost. I never found it. Sometimes I work barefoot.. I can feel dropped parts carom off my foot. Or in flip flops, I have found parts in them. I'm at the point now where I need to vacuum my work area, on carpet. My plan is to crawl under the table first... I will try a loop of packing tape, press the sticky side into the carpet and see what comes up.
