Scumbags, absolute scumbags........ http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-video-shows-thieves-stealng-boy-with-down-s-syndrome-s-easter-eggs-20160330-story.html Then again, Mom and I are both dealing with upper respiratory tract infections..........so I may not be too forgiving right now............

Thanks! That's also a period correct mod too, since there were a bunch of vans that had been converted to gullwing on their side door, which then became awnings for while camping and going to shows, some even split them at the belt line and made the bottom half drop down or I guess you could hinge it like a large, but normal door too.

Oh, and on the IMSA flare issue, maybe make that door some sort of gullwing door arrangementp.>

That carpeting looks familiar, I just can't remember if it was from one of the houses I've lived in, or in one belonging to a family friend or a relative...........

Dang, Sepsis is what nearly killed Mom almost a year ago........I feel horrible for her to have to go that way!

Leaving the car outside for several hours helped, my have to play around with some of these tips on Friday.

This has been an interesting read, a couple weeks back I traded a friend a set of tires I'm no longer using on an r/c truck for a used r/c car and the thing reeks of cigarette smoke and dog (literally, there dog hairs on it, and I'm allergic to dander) and I'm hoping that this helps. Right now it's crazy windy out right now, so I stuck it on the picnic table, and if it rains, oh well, the electronics are waterproof and will eventually get replaced with better stuff anyway..

I recently traded for an on-road R/C car chassis and have decided to use the '69 Corvette Stingray body that the same manufacturer offers for said platform with another brands Minilight style wheels and Hoosier style tires for a late 60's-Mid 70's road racer look and want to add sidepipes to it and would rather make them out of Aluminum vs Plastic them either foiling them, painting them Chrome or Silver, or trying to rap them in Chrome Monokote. I'm thinking I'll use an appropriate diameter thin wall tubing for the actual pipe and then maybe a tapable thick wall tubing for the muffler portion and use 3-4mm screws to mount the pipes to the body by drilling and tapping 3-4 locations along the muffler section of the fabbed pipes and bolting them straight to the shell. Anybody have a good suggestion on how to bend the pipe without kinking it as well as bonding the muffler section to the inner tube of the pipe assembly?!

Wow, happy to hear she's doing that well all ready! Mom has a friend who's adoptive mother had been a nurse and had a severe stroke almost 30 years ago that put her into a nursing home and it drove here nuts to be on the receiving end of being cared for, so what your wife is feeling isn't unusual as far as that goes.

Afraid I will be working tomorrow.

Got the 4 wheel steering working on one of my R/C Trucks, had to put an external power supply on the receiver because the Servos were drawing more power than the speed control could supply and causing glitching issues with the radio.

You're lucky Tom, I knew R/C guys who's wives didn't like their hobby, but had a similar collection of purses. -
That's good to hear Joe, hope all goes well for her recovery and her time in that rehab center.

Speedway does stuff like that if you have one of their cards and use it, I'm currently eligible to get upwards of $.50 a gallon off on my next fuel purchase (it's good on all grades of Gas, as well as Diesel and E85). I'm thinking I might save the points to see how far I can get, maybe get a gas gift card out of it.

I just forwarded that to a bunch of my friends and co-workers, I'm pretty sure that all of our stashes combined pale in comparison to that pile! -
What Did You Get Today? (Not Model Related)
Joe Handley replied to LOBBS's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
Lol, nice trucks! I just got some Wheely King parts for free from a customer, including a $40 set of RC4wd steel trans gears! Kind of a thank you for the times I've helped him and a friend of his.
