What Did You See In Your Yard Today?
bobss396 replied to Tim W. SoCal's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
I believe this is a chestnut ?. I have no such trees around. But I have woods close by. The critters must be bringing them in. -
I use floral wire from crafts stores. I have used pieces of paper clips too.

I have been finding these spiny seed pods in my front yard. I'm here 38 years and this is a first. I have around 20 of them. I looked it up quick, some sort of weed seed pod. -
I toss the kit steering column and make my own. Also the dash bracket that holds it. I'm working on one now using the AMT '56 Ford engine. I had to use the short transmission that came with the '40 kit.

Not my yard, but out east on the Island. They have had a buffalo herd for years. There were little ones and huge males that were hanging out in the distance. We couldn't get any closer than this. -

I tend to remove side trim from almost everything I build. -
What did you see on the road today?
bobss396 replied to Harry P.'s topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I saw this in a driveway. Looks to be a 55 or 56 Plymouth. The sharpening service truck my son saw by Long Beach. I remember those around when I was a kid. -
Lost my little buddy this morning
bobss396 replied to Hard_2_Handle_454's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
This was one that needed to be re-homed so we took her in at age 4. She was my late wife's BFF. They were inseparable. I was recovering from heart surgery in 2016, her and our little cat who was 5 months old were by my side all day, every day. They make good nurses. So I was devastated when she had mandibular cancer. We all were. The cat and my girlfriend had a special bond too. -

I was moving cars around last night around 9. I'm on my front walk and 2 small raccoons walked right up to me. I jumped out of my skin since I hadn't put the front light on. When the motion activated lights on the garage came on, they split. -

I lost one to cancer in 2022. She was the best cat ever. We all still miss her. She was more human than cat. -

Perfect, very well done. A ton of work I'm sure. These type of builds are the most fun. -
Very accurate. Len was not known for his pretty race cars. This was the car that Fred DeSarro was killed in at Thompson.

Very nicely done. The hubcaps are accurate as well. I would like to build a '66 Belair version using the '67 four door kit to replicate my car.

I have some Lindberg '40 Ford kits in the stash. Still my favorite is the AMT kit. I have 2 in the works that I need to finish.
