"Good news!" "What?" "The Yucca Valley Walmart still has no models!" "Great! Now moving on..."

No you don't. It was Superman II, The Richard Donner Cut per IMCDb. Another 1/8 '32 shows up in the amusement park in 1941:

Once while channel surfing, I caught a scene from a Mexican or South American drama in which a gentleman was playing with a remote control Porsche 356. Another guy, apparently the villain, enters and says, "Do you remember when I smashed your toys when we were kids?" and starts to stomp on the car. Just as his foot hits it, the first man pushes a button on the remote, and the Porsche explodes, blowing the bad guy to bits.

I'm surprised it isn't painted red like in the comic books!

case of shingles?

Boo who?

I remember one of the buses we rode in as kids had a Dymo label stuck on the dash reading "NO DOUBLE CLUTCHING".

Got that '62 Chrysler hood today - inside the box, it was wrapped with several feet of toilet paper . And it was two-ply!

Here's an example dated 1965, from a batch of slides I got at an estate sale. Engine looks like dual carb Studebaker; good luck IDing the rest:

Well, that's one way to fix the problem with the roof...

Danke Schoen, maaaan!

"Give the TV a rest." After my granddad's nice big color TV caught fire and burned up his living room, I had no trouble obeying that rule!

House always wins

Over a year later, and after getting outbid on a couple others, I got an NOS hood: My actual model building is on hold for now; since I moved back to CA I've been working pretty much six days a week and where I live I don't really have a hobby space figured out yet - although everything is safely stored.
