    He's selling the Macho Grande?!
  2. Joe Handley
    Ah, I did not know that, especially since Webb looked so young compared to his partner on the early show.

    Was Dragnet always Mark VII Limited? I seem to remember seeing an early, early black and white episode of Dragnet from what looked to be the 50's that also had Jack Webb in it, but was before Harry Morgan played his partner.

    True, depending on where you're staying, it could be 45-60 minutes to my store. Going crawling at Busse Woods, it could take 30-45 minutes from home in West Chicago.

    Don't know about that Jim, I hear a couple of their guys seem to be pretty active in the local model car clubs a couple friends/cutomers are members of.

    The Schaumburg HTU will be one of the closer ones for you then.

    Venture closed a couple years ago too.

    Yup, we did end up hiring their best known R/C guy a couple weeks ago though!

    Yup, mine is one of the few left. There are a handful of HobbyTown franchises, I happen to work for the one in St. Charles, then there's a couple down in the Joliet area, I think there's a train oriented shop in Elgin still, not sure about Prosek's between West Chicago and Winfield, I think they're now just flowers.

    This, this, this, this, THIS! Dad saw thit exact same problem a decade before you did with his own '62 Plymouth as well as customers' cars, including a '57 Chevy own by somebody with what sounded like the he used the exact same keychain!

    That's not too bad, to put no modification LED 5×7 inch LED headlights are at least $250 a light, and those are just the lights, no additional brakets, handles, hole saws, ect are needed!

    Sounds like it's one of Warren Buffett's companies, I'd be surprised if they were that foolish.
  13. Joe Handley
    Well, at least you could get the weather then, that's pretty hard to come by on the "Weather" Channel anymore.
  14. Joe Handley
    There was talk of it on NBC-5 News last night, and I'll be honest, I'd rather see it go to a company like that!
  15. Joe Handley
    Eh, I'd rather have the Million Dollar Cuda, but both are overpriced.

    Seriously, this is a new reality show?! http://mashable.com/2014/06/30/fat-guys-in-the-woods-is-an-actual-show-coming-to-the-weather-channel/

    I believe that's called Karma Gotta X3 this one.

    Electrics and hybrids are funny, saw an old Escape Hybrid as I was walking into work from a distance and didn't hear it at all, but I have heard a few mechanical noises from a Volt and have heard the motor whine from a Tahoe Hybrid, both from closer distances. You kinda have to change what you listen for.

    I thought we had that here too Harry (wouldn't have been a surprise), but it ended up being thunder and lightening instead!

    The 6 speed auto in my 200 is like that too, however, since the trans was designed to use one, all the provisions are there to install one yourself once you get the dipstick (the ones that were in the 3 speed autos in my Lebaron and Shadow would probably work) from the parts store/dealership.
  21. Joe Handley
    Or two!

    Went out to a park to do some R/C trail running with some friends and we ran across something along those lines that can't in any way could be referred as a simple apple. o_O

    One thing that is funny about all this rain, we do parking lot racing from May-September and usually the first 6 races have a good chance of getting called for rain or lap computer issues, but neither has been an issue so far this season?!

    I got one for the '94 ZJ Grand Cherokee I totalled back in '98 this past winter because of that whole gas tank debacle. Still find the whole furver over that funny since my '98 XJ Cherokee has it's tank in the same place and made from the same plastics, yet isn't an issue?!
  25. Joe Handley
    Not that I've heard, I'm sure Monday will have a few more. Got a friend with a S10 that's waiting to see if he gets any for it, luckily our last GM product died in '04 and finally got scrapped in '08 or '09, hope it doesn't get recalled too!
