    Nice. But you're right, it sits too high.
  3. Nice.
  4. Many, many, many . . . way too many . . . years ago when a teenager, my buddies and I were privileged to use the back half of a large shop for our automotive shenanigans. The place belonged to my best friend's father and it served his heating/air conditioning business during the day but our 'speed shop' at night. Best thing was . . . it was a half-block from the local Wonder Bread bakery. When we were working in 'the shop' in the middle of the night, those guys at the huge bakery would be cranking out fresh bread in copious quantities. That aroma permeated the neighborhood and drove us crazy. Eventually we discovered the 'back door' and some amused but kindly night shift guys flipped us each a hot loaf. Wow. Even without butter that was outstanding melt-in-your mouth snacking! To this day, the combined aromas of degreaser, fresh motor oil and hot, fresh bread conjure up some great memories!
  5. In the desert, temperatures drop at night to very chilly during the fall and winter months. It's amazing the temperature range we experience . . . other than during our 3-4 month Sizzling' Summer. That's when the overnight lows don't drop below 85-95. And that's why you don't need a pool heater out here.
  6. Excellent!!
  7. Nice.
  8. Good info, Frank. Thanks!
  9. Nice, Love those old Ponchos!
  10. Outstanding model, fantastic interior.
  11. Wow, way to go, Craig! Hella score. Looks like Sandi's sister is a keeper, too!
  12. The 'bubbletop' Ventura? Wow. Now I've gotta get a couple more!
  13. Headers are there. Right side of the first white sprue.
  14. Gravity is stronger today than it was 40+ years ago.
  15. Nice, but it needs some real tires!
  16. Try to buy a gallon of gasoline for what you paid 15 - 20 years ago.
  17. It's been under 100 for a week, the very low 100s the preceding week and forecast to stay in the upper 90s to low 100s all next week. Thunderstorms almost every day in the afternoons and evenings (although we've had a break in that pattern for a few days). Old fashion, typical monsoon season ~ ~ ~ which we haven't had for years. The past several years its been 105-110 every day throughout August, so this is real heavenly. More rain expected later this week. Humidity? Vertical.
  18. Nice!
  19. Beautiful! But, yeah, the big, bulky plastic kit antenna just doesn't cut it.
  20. Nice.
  21. Oh, what a beauty! REALLY looking forward to this one! Thanks, Dave, for all you and the Moebius Mob do for the hobby!
