The object of AI is to try to turn everyone into idiots and I bet there are now people parroting the cool BOSS 249 they saw on YT.

When did the AMT 49 Ford kit come out
bobss396 replied to junkyardjeff's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
My 1st was molded in gray and it was around 1963. I had another that was molded in light blue. -

And a 51 Mercury. -
I was listening to the GD channel on XM radio earlier in the week and marveling at how good he was on the bass. A couple days later he was gone. He will be missed. He sang well, Unbroken Chain from the Mars Hotel is a good listen. I believe he also did Box Of Rain on American Beauty.

Some model mag, maybe Scale Auto had an article on chopping a '49 Merc. IIRC it was quite good. But yours is off to a good start.

Scenes Unlimited wheel back equivalent
bobss396 replied to Brutalform's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I have a decent stash of wheel backs. I pick up any I see at shows. In a pinch I had to make some when I had engine lathe access. Some 3D printing vendors make them, I can't think of one right now. Possibly Ron Coon but those fit stock car tires fir the most part. If you can, look at some of the AMT stock car wheel backs. -

This is a small farm by where my girlfriend lives. They have 2 horses, a pony and some turkeys. It is zoned for horses, etc and the properties are 1/2 acre and up. These 2 come up to the fence looking for handouts. -
Donnie, Cale, 1979
bobss396 replied to Horrorshow's topic in Stock Cars (NASCAR, Super Stock, Late Model, etc.)
Well done. I have to get me one of those. I had an uncle that worked for RJ Reynolds on the NASCAR promotion team. He got free Winstons... too bad lung cancer took him out somehow.. -
I know a lot of friends that like this show and they by now have stopped asking me if I want to go. I just do not care for big shows. I like cruise events, I can leave when I want to. The swap meets are permeated with die cast cars and yard sale items. I have a friend with a tattoo shop. She has a Friday night "show" now and then, it pulls around 10 cars and is always fun.

My 1st few weeks home we're tough, by week 2, I cracked open a beer. That is when I knew I would survive. My kids did some shopping and cooking and my wash. I had home PT, about 12 sessions which was good. Some exercises inside, then walks outside. If you have this offered, take it.

Nice to know where he went. He must have had someone making them for him.

I have an impressive squadron of Bluejays that stop by for breakfast every day. I feed them black sunflower seeds and peanuts. I find loose feathers fairly often just off the deck. Some are quite vivid with color. -
I have some Shabo dry transfers that I use on stock cars. My supply is good but getting low. The older ones don't work so well. I have looked for new ones online. No luck. I used to see them at shows. But not recently.

Interesting AI Generated cars
bobss396 replied to Falcon Ranchero's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Some are butt ugly... all we need is to have someone 3D print a couple. Drop the bodies on a GM chassis and go from there. -

My dad lived way out east and we would see massive flocks of them. He backed up to a county park and them and the deer wore a path next to the woods. Come getting close to Thanksgiving.. there would be not a turkey in sight. Somehow they either got got or had a 6th sense to lay low. -
The little calico named Brie was sleeping like this. The black one. Mr. Beers was just chilling. He has sleek shiny fur. All 3 get along well.

Wild turkeys on my girlfriend's block. Sometimes we see 6 or more just waltzing on the side of the road. -

My girlfriend likes the heat. She's into a spicy margarita ? when he go out. I have hot cherry, cayenne and 4 jalapeƱos on the patio in pots. I did reapers a few years back and they were HOT. I pack them up in small batches so I add them to chili or soup. -

Picked more hot peppers yesterday. Top to bottom. Habanero, Ghost and Scotch Bonnet. I chopped them all up, vacuum sealed them and stashed them in the freezer. I managed to avoid getting anything on my hands this time. -

I had squirrels get into my garage via a damaged roof. I'm still finding loose insulation everywhere. I patched it until I got a new put on. Each fall I go around the house and garage making sure nothing can get in. I back up to state land on 2 sides of my property. The only thing I don't have is chipmunks and these woodchuck/gopher things I see out east of me. I see possum, fox, of course raccoons. Something happened to my rabbits recently. I had a wild turkey in my yard back in April. -
They are so curious. My Ivan checks out anything that comes in the door. Pocketbooks, groceries, packages of any type.

All 3 cats hanging out with my girlfriend the other night. The black cat belongs to her daughter. He thinks that the girl cats are his harem.
