We hit Flemington for special races and when our tracks rained out. We'd call Flemington or OCFS and see if they were running. We went to NE when it was asphalt around 1982 or 1983, the guys we pitted next to at Islip went to run a Pocono street stock qualifier, which they won. Then it went dirt under the New Venture name and the track failed. I'd like to go one night, it's not that far from me

Overcast here and 70. Yesterday it rained early, I got some weeding done in the midst of it. Still humid as heck, I run the AC almost every day.

Ron Coon Resins may have the parts to get you started. He has some straight axle jackers that may work.

I have some of Paul's kits. The existing engine is a challenge to detail, so is the chassis with it being complete. I went to EW once, when Doug Hoffmann ruled the place.

I built one years ago, I should have pictures on an external drive.

I have to dig out some wrecker backs and take pictures of them. One is a full resin back with a wheel lift. I have a couple of sling-back beds too, 3D printed. VCG Resins used to have some wrecker backs on his site, I haven't seen them in a while.

72 again and a light rain, very humid. I'll have the AC on soon and get some model time in.

We just saw it. I was expecting some better racing footage. Brad Pitt played a good part. I'd watch it again when it comes on cable.

My son is dating a librarian. I'm impressed with the array of services they provide, including 3D printing. You need to go to your local one and ask.

Hot and sticky! I have to keep up with some watering on a daily basis. We could use a real good rain.

I grew up close to a busy train yard. We would hitch rides on slow moving electric train cars, from one end of the yard to another.

I'm thinking of making one myself. It would have to fit inside a box for storage. Maybe a 11" x 17" bankers box.

Crows are savage, known to raid nests for young birds. I saw one fly off with a baby cardinal. The parents chased it pretty far, dive bombing and pecking at the crow. My army of bluejays raise a ruckus when crows or hawks get too close.

I use Tamiya TS23 for early Ford engines, their darker blue for later stuff.

I have the only cat in existence who abhors people food. I can tempt him with chicken and cold cuts now and then.

73 and humid, we could use some rain, maybe later on. Definitely a pool day today.

I recently saw Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, he's in one of the opening scenes for Bounty Law.

I have one that helps put groceries into the fridge. Anything that comes into the house belongs to the cat.

70 at 6:30 am. Yesterday was nice, got up to 84. Today should be similar. The rain rolls in next week.

Ford's steel was a proprietary formula, he had foundaries that made these forged parts, which is a vastly different process over cast parts.

I'm a eBay member since 1999. I buy lots of things there. Model stuff, car parts, clothing, etc. I use Pay Pal and pay using a debit card I have on file. Over the years my card has been hacked a few times. I do have saved sellers that I trust. I've only been burned in a scant few transactions in over 1500 + of them.

We were just watching War Games from 1983, he had a bit part in it. He was one of the USAF guys in the missile silo.

62 at 5:30 am. It rained hard last night after 9, pretty clear right now.

67 F at 6 AM and sticky... again. Shaping up to be a nice day. The plants all look happy. Definitely good pool weather. I have to do some vegetable garden weeding once the lawn sprinklers are done.

I built one around 1996 when I got back into modeling. Testors paint, zero aftermarket parts... I was not happy with the results. BACK IN THE BOX!!... I dug it out in early 2001, cut it up to make a stock car.
