  1. Thanks!!! ......yeah I always liked your avatar,sure wish I still had all my stuff from the day,I had a friend who got me into in '73 when it was pretty popular still and I can remember my first AFX car,yellow n black '55 Chevy.We would go to the local hobby shops,we had 4 in the neighborhood in the day and one had a tracks,one for HO's and one for the 1/32,nothing like buying a new car and lettin' her rip right then and there.............fun times!!!
  2. Yeap,Purdy much,she is at that,wouldn't have half the toys I have including my '66 F100 if it wasn't for her ?
  3. Thanks for the tip,I have just done that
  4. That and when it's in someone else's backyard .....
  5. Mine came from a song by Social Distortion "Bad Luck" which was a favorite of Baby Girl's (my daughter) and on of my favorite lyrics to the song "Thirteen's my lucky number,To you it means stay inside.Black cat done crossed my path,No reason to run and hide." and being she is the one who got me back into this hobby,hence Badluck 13
  6. For my past Birthday my wife got me the Auto World Route 66 slot car track just because the week before I was telling her when I was 10-14 I was into the AFX slots and had a ton-o-stuff that I ended up loosing all when we had a house fire and being the sweetheart that she is got me a started set all well knowing it would get me back into the hobby and since then I have picked up a few items here and there and this was the ultimate!!!,Auto World "Jungle Jim" set. Being a HUGE Jungle Jim Liberman fan from back in the day and have many Jungle items and even got to touch,Jungles car at the Garlits Museum which for me was a thrill and very emotional one at that as I miss Jungle dearly...... Yes I have a picture of me touching Jungles car but don't want to incriminate myself ...and yes it looks like I got the HO slot car bug again .......
  7. A public service announcement to my fellow snow belt cruiser friends.....
  8. As always your work is second to none....VERY beautiful old school Kenny and from a Snap kit to boot,fantastic grille and love the tank treatment.
  9. Awesome job Will !!!! Not only does the last picture explains itsef,it sums up the whole thing......both of you have something to be mighty proud of.
  10. I listen quite a bit to this Kat,and it ain't jusss because he is my cousin,Ryan is the real deal,meet the man you'll swear he just walked out of 1958,heck da' man drives this '52 as a daily driver 365....
  11. I started having the problem Saturday evening which I thought it was a issue on my end with out cable provider until it happens twice today at work,this is something Dave will have to check into
  12. This was brought up at one of the last Ford meetings I was at in February, the sales show that the car line is just not what most of the public wants and like already said most manufactures are following as well.....
  13. Yeah I am sorry about that,read right past where you wrote 1941....
  14. The Playmate Mustangs were pink,Ford Dusk Rose, Donna Michelles was a custom pink color but the ones available to the public was a standard if you will pink,there is a '66 Playmate Mustang in N.E. Ohio and it is non metallic/pearl pink. This car picture below is excellent representation of a Playmate Mustang that and my eyes have had the pleasure of seeing this car at the annual Mustang vs Camaro Showdown I attend every year and yes this car has the luggage too
  15. Was shocked the last time I went to Willoughby late this past October how the selection on kits had vanished,still like dealing with Stewart's....if ya don't mind what's the name of the one in Geneva?....Boardman Hobbies in Boardman(naturally) is pretty decent with new kits and supplies.
  16. Hey Bill,first your post is not taken as criticism at all in fact I am glad you asked and me personally wouldn't ban you if you did "criticize" me. As you know there have been issues from time to time that when trying post pictures you may get a "error" and if gets quite frustrating to the member trying to post and them come here for advice or help and then suddenly comments come in that has no help to the person asking for help,sure when the picture was posted it did prove "yes" it is working...for some but not in this case for this case posted and the few that are having issues are in fact experienced uploading pictures "ignorant" is how it looks to the person asking for help by treated with these comments. Not once was it mention that anything posted was a violation or offensive ,just useless for the help asked for,sure there is some humor in the comment but this is where the "juvenile" comes in,it keeps going and going and before long it is totally off track and soon you have a thread that is totally meaningless and useless and can be a recipe for a locked thread or deleted and then you are right back in the beginning no further ahead. You and I have had a little history of ummmm how would you say it? not seeing eye to eye but I will say this Bill,you ALWAYS try to help those here when they have a issue with a part,model,or posting issue and you are quite respected for that by many here including,yes,me,I can't say I have seen a time when someone was asking for help/answers where you chimed in and gave off the wall responses.... like others you have asked for help with a issue or two and hoping to get a "answer" and not the garb in between. Hopefully this answers to some degree of understanding .....For the sake for peace of mind for you Bill,I am quite sure you have nothing to fear of running afoul of any rule............
  17. Knock it off with the juvenile comments that have nothing to do with the original post,again yes some of you have no problem uploading which that's just swell but there are those who are having issues and they are not the ignorant ones.....If you don't have any helpful comments or input then go build a model.
  18. Apparently there is some sort of a issue on the the board that is giving both David and Jeff this problem,not the fact one needs to read how to use the board or the fact someone else can upload,because I know both have posted pictures here before .... heck I have received these error message last week too
