  1. I race lawnmowers. It would work good to do mowers I the future as then I can always pull it of if I don’t like it. But the price is almost double the price of spray paint. That’s why I was asking to see if it is actually worth the price and if it would work on a model.
  2. I got these 4 today. they all appear to be complete but the blue 56 Chevy has a broken window pillar.
  3. Just want to know if anyone has tried anything like this on a model? It is called protect dip.
  4. I got a set of air horns.
  5. Today I started un-painting my lawnmower, wiring in brake lights and finishing up my steering. Next step is working signal lights. I also fixed my mig welder.
  6. Yeah I sure do. It might seem a little weird modifying mowers (I did when I first heard of it) but when you have driven at 50km/h on one it is hard not to like it.
  7. Went to my grandpas today and he gave me some old lights that I’m going to put on my lawnmower (It will have working brake and signal lights). I also found an old tractor seat that I’m going to use. I am going to rig them up so I can use LED’s. a few days ago I also got a Canada flag (because I’m building this mower for the Canada day parade/car show).
  8. I stopped and looked at this old land yacht that is for sale. He wants $500 for it and it’s got a running and driving 383 with 727 trans, 8-3/4 rear end and factory hub caps in the trunk. Unfortunately it doesn’t have cop shocks.
  9. Today I went KMS tools for the first time (it is awesome) and bought a few things. I got a new welder feed thing because mine had a some wire stuck in it, a new ground clamp for my welder, knee pads for when I’m welding, cool stickers and a footprint gas’s pedal that I got for free from a friend. I also got a light for my shed.
  10. I know what you mean. It is the same thing in BC they are never done fixing the roads and they like to take there time doing it.
  11. Today I seen two black bears. I only got pictures of one.
  12. I had talked to the previous owner of the car the other day and he said that there was just a small wire that was disconnected somewhere on the engine bay that caused the ignition not to work. So I spent a little while under the hood and found it and I am hoping to fire the car up this week (the weather has been bad and I got a job so I have been very busy) He also mentioned that he had the car running a few years ago.
  13. Today I seen a 64 Fargo truck (that I’m going to try to buy) and a 67 dodge truck (that I want to try buying) both of the trucks were sitting in felds.
  14. I agree. It doesn’t even look real or match.
  15. Today I seen a 67 Camaro and the same 66ish mustang as I did the other day.
  16. This thing looks horrible (I mean that in a good way). What type of motor are you going to put in it? I will be watching.
  17. Today I decided to organize my shed that I use for building my lawnmowers and when everything was outside it started to rain so now some of my stuff is wet and I just shoved all my stuff back in there and need to go through it again. Another thing that irked me today is that I seen that this thread has over 7,000 post and the what pleasesed you today thread has less than half. So why dose everyone have to be so Irked all the time.
  18. Today I was hoping to finish up my lawnmower exhaust but my wire feed welder decided to give me problems and now I a chunk of wire stuck somewhere inside the gun feed tube.
  19. I know how you feel. One time I was welding with an old non auto darkening helmet and forgot to flip the thing down and did the same thing. Last Christmas my grandpa got me a Lincoln electric auto darkening helmet and it is amazing.
  20. Your one investor Alex is probably going to be pretty busy for a little while now that he won the cup. you should put a mini lord Stanley in the back seat.
  21. a couple of days ago I got a job working with my Dad in the oil patch as a helper/crew hand (that means I get all the jobs no one else wants to do) I work around 10-12 hour days a few times a week. The cool thing is I’m around big V12 and l8 motors with turbos bigger than a big block Chevy and there generators are powered by 8.1L Chevy engines. The pics below are 2 of the 8.1L Chevy generators.
  22. So far today I have seen a 68ish mustang, 56 Chevy and a 70s ranchero
  23. Here’s mine. I just brought it out of the box the other day and it has just been sitting on my desk. I have been busy with school and building a lawnmower that needs to be done for the 1st of July for a Canada day car show.
  24. Yeah I was good with almost everything but I missed one stop sign and that was an instant fail.
  25. The steering isn’t connected yet.
