  1. Make sure and thank her for giving me the opportunity to purchase all those models, I really appreciate it.
  2. I want to know why the picture of two Willys are in here.?
  3. Thanks guys, it was fun driving it along the coast in the warm weather. So the owner swapped out cars with me. This one is getting the front suspension rebuilt and factory optional Kelsey Hayes wire wheels. Yesterday, after enduring 110 peak temp where we live (seven miles inland from the coast), I took my lovely bride for a ride at sunset. That 60 degree weather felt soooooooo good.
  4. You had amazing vision when undertaking this build. Superb outcome!
  5. Great trades with fordf100, BIGTRUCK, and Paul Payne. Thanks again guys!
  6. It started out in my driveway. 30k original miles. The carpet had a few stains and a rotted edge along the driver's sill plate. So I installed a new carpet kit and then took it for a nice drive. Nothing like fluid drive....behind a flathead straight eight, and wrapped up in a 1949 Chrysler New Yorker.
  7. Hey ! No fair, you found your bench before I did. ?
  8. After a full day's work of sorting and bagging, I have managed to go through six of the 1/8 model boxes, the clear tote with white lid, and u-haul moving box. The model box full of chrome trees, and the model box that has a complete 32 ford in it, minus the body, are being left as is. All that is left is the large blue tote...?
  9. The two tubs and plastic bag are full of misc pieces. Eventually another bag of small stuff will be heading my way. We just ran out of time. You should have seen the totes of paint we didn't even get to. It might travel to me the next time. They want to see the coast. ?
  10. Just to give you an idea of the mountain of 1/8 that I will be sorting out, here are some pics of what are in the boxes and tubs. The two boxes of Corvette are 1/12. If I dissappear for a year, you know why...
  11. Just returned home to find that unbeknownst to me, my wife had put the spare leaf in the table and moved the chairs so that I could have a "staging area" as she put it. She did impress apon me that this would be a temporary arrangement. I have the best wife ! Unloaded but not sorted through at all. Everything on top of the table, the large blue tote, and the moving box behind it are all 1/8 except for the box of 1/12 Corvettes. (Yes, you were right Tom). Lots of parts, started "ideas", and a few kits. Quite a bit of resin and other aftermarket pieces. The three shopping bags and smaller blue tote are all 1/25.
  12. At a rest are on the way home from picking up a load of models.
  13. So, after an 8hr drive yesterday, this is what I got today. Where to put it and what all is there will be another problem when I get back home. ...oh, and there is another large tote behind the back seat.
  14. The Jag and 'Vette are my favorite. Maybe because I have both in the stash. I surely do hope mine come out half as good as your beauties.
  15. That is a thing of beauty Tom. Sure is nice when one comes together better than expected.
  16. I will be following this one.
  17. Looking really good Bill.
  18. I think you will free up plenty of space after this weekend...?
  19. What?!?! I want to see it under glass dad gum it! ?
  20. Thanks guys! I'll give Dawn a try when I start on one.
