Bump and grind, bump and grind, sounds like something to do with seating valves.

Universe, a concept to describe the vast unknown of space beyond our own small planet.

Recently, beneath the stairs, I came upon the little man who wasn't there.

communicate IS what we have a failure of.

Floors Me hearties, dat thar's a Deck!

Trail a suspect through the Great Dismal Swamp, nearly impossible!

Oily, I was late in my response!

"A" was a famous quote from the Fonz, or was he Canadian A?

Song titles are often frivolous as in Obladi Oblada!

Already Monday, and I have to go back to work, all the time thinking about how sentences need to end with some form of punctuation or at least parole.

Fast as lightning right out of the box!

Thanks for the info Alan, One of my long lost projects is a Marmon Wasp and since i want it to appear as raced in 1911 I don't want to use the splash pan that is presently installed on the car today. I have pretty extensive research but the most mysterious parts are the bottom of the crank case and the clutch. These are the best I have for the clutch and an old section view for a manual.

Hi Frank, Just found your WIP for the Locomobile. I've enjoyed see you and the Old 16 at NNL this past decade. Missed this year but wanted to pick you brain about 'Cone Clutches' particularly for the Marmon wasp project. Hope the 41 made it through the fires. Look forward to seeing you and the stable at next years NNL!

An option to black wash in your panel lines would be to mix a much darker tone of your body color and apply that to your panel lines. When you look at a 1:1 car you aren't seeing black, unless it is the rubber gasket, you are seeing the body color in shadow.

Thanks for the Toon James, Great detail, Totally Big Daddy inspired! Study hall... A great place to study your artwork, and you have to work with what you got for supplies. My old notebook a case in point. Times do change as do our sensibilities, thanks for making the point. Many things in our past are cringeworthy today. Maybe now you can print this one out and color it in?

Way back in the days of Yore (the 60s mostly0 I used to wait in Great Anticipation for the newest edition of CARtoons magazine! I'd pore over the pages of art until the covers were falling off... I still have a couple of my old issues even today, and that is where I got my Icon Temple Mc Flathead. Today I have the tools to make create my own funnies so I said to myself... Self, Let's see what my fellow CAR toonists can come up with. So come along and show us what vehicle funnies make you chortle or LOL, in today's vernacular. Below is my first submission hot off the pixel pounder. Enjoy! Join in!

Road grime and wooden rub strips... Brilliant!

Hay Mike no explanation needed here but you might want to talk to Mr. Hesketh Racing about a 1:1 copy of your cosworth. That new Pocher Lotus looks amazing, but then it should for roughly $1,000 US. Wondering how their DFV stacks up to your wonderful work here. Good to hear from you anytime. J

INTENSE! great idea checking off your progress on the instructions as you go. Beautiful workmanship.
