  1. WOW!....and it's only late-February! That makes it only...what....three months late or so?
  2. Maybe natural selection has a few more rounds to go.... Had it taken out both testicles, he could have been a candidate for a Darwin Award! Dave
  3. Looks like an old storage container for 3.5" "floppy discs", which were anything BUT floppy.
  4. Resin ones show up on the bay every now and then. I forget who makes them, and although I have bid, they always seem to go for more scratch than I wanna spend. If it's a must have, I'd put a search on there and wait. Dave
  5. Answer is Stutz Bearcat, which was prepped in only 5 weeks for the 1911 Indy race and finished 11th. Happy T-day Art! Dave
  6. I will definitely be there. Haven't missed on in years, and do not intend to start doing so now! Dave
  7. WOW!!!! You actually saw a Vernon!!! Whatinhell is a Vernon???? I'm thinking you might have seen a Bugatti Veyron that your spellchecker decided it was smarter about..... Best Regards, Dave
  8. Nice work, but that one's gonna run really HOT, with that big load and solid hood sides. Moght want to consider adding some louvers. Dave
  9. Hey Izzy! I'm proud of ya man! Looks like you're having a great time with this build. Somebody asked before, but I did not see an answer: What is your plan for the steel "artillery spoke" wheels? I'm thinking that I might have some beating around in metal that I did for a project that never came alive. Drop me a message if you want me to mount a search..... Dave
  10. Thanks everybody. I think I have this figured out now. I use a number of different computers to look at this board, and I'm betting that I've got one or more of them set on "outline". This one is on "Standard", but you can bet I will check the ohters when I can! Many thanks for the input. Dave
  11. Howcum on some threads all the messages are laid out so you can just scroll down and read them, and on other threads, only the initial posting is there, and then you must go to the bottom of the page and click on another subject line to see that message? In the latter case, you can only see the first post, and the one you just clicked. To see more, you need to click on every subject line. Am I missing something fundamental? Can anyone esplain why this is?
  12. Sweet build! I see a few custom touches too. Where did you get the REA decals/signs? Dave
  13. Jim! It's been almost a month since your last post. What's new on the conversion? Inquiring minds want to know..... Dave
  14. Me too, me too! thanks Greg for getting it "back up to speed". Dave
  15. I have a T-1 line at work, and hi-speed cable at home, so it is most certainly NOT the size of the incoming "pipe". It is also specific to this board alone. I participate in many other boards, although not a regular on that other mag board, and this is the only one that makes me nutz with it's slowness in loading speed. Dave
  16. I have the same problem at both work and home. It's so slow that my screensaver times out while waiting! I'm just speculating now, but is it possible that leaving EVERY post since forever online is creating that? Can you dump off some oldies and speed things up? Vent mode off now..... Dave
  17. If you want the roadster, I think that Tony at R & D Unique still casts it. Try http://www.rndunique.com/rnd_productlist.cfm?pi=2&pc=1
  18. And how would one find KA Models? Ir there a website where this can be ordered? TIA Dave
  19. Well, thanks for the quality notes! Was not aware of that. Quality aside, I just noticed that theirs is a RHD version. Was the TR made in both? (You can probably tell I'm a little outside my comfort zone here!) Dave
  20. Great work Jim, but now I'm wondering how this one might fit on the chassis... http://www.resilientresins.com/BodyDetails.cfm?ID=14&I=1
  21. Geez Jairus! Drop an email to Tony at MiniExotics@aol.com, and I'm sure he would be happy to send you a couple of samples. I recall there being two different sizes available, but that was a while ago....... Best, Dave
  22. Oops! HLJ is still accepting orders, so maybe my "sold out" report earlier was premature. Just ordered one for me.....
  23. I'm reading on another board that the first run is already sold out. Hope they will do another one! Dave
  24. Well, I'd have a grand and you wouldn't! Seriously, contact me off-board and we can talk. You can get me on RnDUnique@aol.com.
  25. Which Herb Deeks wires are these? Could you please advise diameter of the PE? thanks Jim. Dave VanderWal
