  1. Hi all, don't know how to post list but here is link. Great kits including 1/16 scale and lots of car kits. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CRqSqF_mHGS3uH42XKNk0Q5Nb64g-ebkuMZ16M6WoNo/edit#gid=0
  2. Sorry Mr. Snake, Mods,please move to proper thread.
  3. Hi Les, no HOA and neighbor mom passed some years ago. We are in county, so, we are on our own.
  4. Hi all, I just have to vent to someone. My wife and I are so upset with our neighbor next door. A little backstory ,his mother lived in the house for about 10 years before cancer hit her. My wife and her were good friends. when she got sick ,one of her sons moved from Long Island. She was very sick. when he got here,he moved her to a smaller bedroom and moved into her bedroom and bath. i overheard him say that he wished she would hurry up and die. He is very OCD with a perfect yard. He mows about 2 times a week and for the past month and a half he blows leaves.He has a backpack blower the has the loudest sound I have heard. He has been blowing 2 to 3 times a day,everry day. His yard has no trees and ours has a lot. He blows the leaves from his onto ours. I know the leaves come from our trees,but,most other people in our area just pick up whatever leaves are there. no matter whose they are. It is so loud and it goes on for hours a day,even into the night. He has also put drainage drains from his property onto ours, causing a lot of water to come on our property. We called and had county come out and they said unless it causes damage to house, there was nothing to be done. We have tried to talk to him, and, it is impossible, he just walks away with a beer in hand He is a drunk. He is about 47 years old and we are 67 and 68 years old. We don't have the money to use lawyers and court. Thanks for your time and sorry for the rant. George
  5. Hi, can someone post a pic or link to new flyer? the one starting Oct.29? Thanks,George
  6. That is the one!! You guys are the best !! Thank you very much.
  7. I am trying to remember the name and info about a futuristic 3 wheel car. I think it was yellow. It was modeled a long time ago. Any ideas??
  8. Hi all, I am more than irked. I bought the new Grump's Vega on ebay,using the $25 coupon. So far so good. I have been tracking it. It said Sat morn."out for delivery.. I checked back about 6pm and it said delivery attempted-no access to delivery location. WHAT !! I live in a single family home on an asphalt road with driveway and sidewalk leading to front porch. I just think he wanted to start holiday . Our regular mail person took a leave of absence due to wife being pregnant. Ever since then service has been terrible. I spoke to postmaster before and it continues. ??
  9. Hi all, got an email that all model kits are 40% off at Hobby Lobby.No coupon needed.
  10. Hi, we just got rid of our Focus. It is a 2000 ZX3 hatchback. It got to where it was in the shop every 3 weeks. It had 160K miles on it. We had to put in a second engine when it quit. Many recalls. We got a 2000 Infiniti with 140K on it. It is a Q30t. The older man who had it passed away and the garage that worked on it had it for sale We got it for $2400 and 3 oi changes. The original owner treated like a baby. Interior is really clean. No rips in seats,cracks in dash and everything works like new. The exterior had a 1 inch scratch in hood which I took care of. There are a few scratches on rear bumper and other than that,body is cherry,no dings,scratches oxidation !! We have had it about 2 months and still finding options,like automatic seat positioning,etc... with a dual overhead cam V6 it is very fast. It has 3 coils on it and you don't need to change plugs but every 100K miles. Rides and drives GREAT !!
  11. I hate BAD drivers !!! I was stopped at a red light at an intersection. I looked at my rear view mirror and saw 1 of the new Porsche Carreras coming fast. He came up to the light,touched the brakes,( his brake lights blinked), and he sped right thru. If there were any cars coming from either side,he would have hit them. At the speed he was going, there would be serious injuries. I could not see the driver as the windows were too dark. I wish I could have gotten his plate number, or if the police were around. My wife said she wished he would wrap it around a tree. It would serve him right.
  12. Hi Snake, I showed my wife the pic and all she saw was her Nikes. Does she know the name or where she got them. She likes the color and the Velcro. If not,no big deal. I tried to send message,said you can't receive? Thanks,george
  13. May he rest in peace. My wife and I saw him at the opening of the Orlando Arena. He was there with Dolly and the Oak Ridge Boys. What a concert !! Yes they sang "Islands in the Stream"
  14. Hi, you might make the plug wires a little longer to add some droop in the wires. Look at images on google and you will see that most wires are not that tight from distributor to plug. Just my 2 cents.
  15. I stopped by Lowe's today and picked up a shop light fixture.When I got home,I took it out of box and saw it was missing the socket piece that the bulbs go into.there were 3 in place on unit and 1 missing. Now,I have to go back and return it and get another one.this is their fault and no quality control. They should give me something for the trouble,but,I am sure that is not going to happen.
  16. Well excuse me for trying to bring some laughter to here. Just because it is click bait,there are some weird planes that I bet most here did not know about. Sorry about the thread !!
  17. I think this is a great topic and there are some strange planes. Also good for a chuckle or two. https://www.moneypop.com/business/the-worst-planes-and-helicopters-ever-made/?utm_source=gd&utm_campaign=hjm-dm-us-n-sm-0-191206-mp-gd-b4&utm_medium=US-All&utm_content=blank&utm_term=blank&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIpZj22YfW5gIVQxB9Ch3INw3eEAEYASAAEgKAt_D_BwE
  18. Dave, I am sorry to say that the ads are getting to be too much. I got an ad for the Squatty Potty for kids. Also there are 3-4 ads per page on a thread. Is there a way to reduce the ads and not lose too much revenue? I might have to start using an ad blocker.
  19. This belongs to a guy that owns a n auto shop near me. I have more pics. 65 fairlane 500
  20. Hi again, 14 out of 16 qualifiers were Camaros. There was a Mustang and a Dart also. I think it has to do with aerodynamics and they run a GM 500 engine. That seems to be the combo of choice now. I remember the old days of Pro Stock with Fords,Chevys and Dodges battling it out.
  21. Hi, the top speed for Top Fuel was 334.40 MPH. Funny cars were faster. John Force hit 337.33 and Robert Hight hit 335.07.
  22. Hi all,I have a friend that has this 55.I would like to build one as close as possible.choose files... Click to choose files Which kit would work best?
  23. Casey, thanks for letting me know the differences in the kits. They are not a deal breaker for either kit. Joe, Yes,I am just wanting a decent kit. Thanks to all replies !! George
  24. Thank you very much,Joe. That is just what I am looking for. Now to go to the Bay to look for one. George
