  1. I saw this '74 Pinto wagon turning into a parking lot and I just had to go see it. Nice guy, he purchased it approximately 4 months ago. He mentioned that he's had several over the years.
  2. This weeks acquisitions by mail. I'm trying to fill my show rod voids. NEXT!
  3. When you're young and have no shame, you get results anyway ya can. Mom's paper dooley's and lace ribbon worked wonders.
  4. Back in the day when the van craze was hopping and I was a youngster and I couldn't get enough vans. Here's a blast from my past. Mind you, I was young. All spray cans and some rub on lettering. 🫣
  5. If only Round2 would consider doing a reissue.. Great Build, I'm jealous.
  6. As a show rod lover and with "the weirder is better" thinking, this is cool. By now everyone has pretty much said it all. So ditto on the comments. I've overlooked this kit many times with the thought it's just too silly. Dave, you've changed that foolish thought to a "I've gotta have one." Nice work! and thanks for convincing me I was wrong!
  7. Today I'm in heaven, not literally but close to it.. my little buddy Chip has returned and it's just like old times.. 20250515_115508.mp4
  8. Sweet! Congratulations
  9. Made a trip to Hobby Lobby today for their 40% off deal to pick up 2 pro street novas and decided to also grab the new Green Hornet's car. The Red Baron came from an ebay auction, open and complete. Not that the kit consists of that many parts anyhow.
  10. My wife had a few instances with her flowered dresses too. So it's apparently not an uncommon occurrence.
  11. Now that I'm awake from what irked me and I don't want to fall back asleep, I can tell what pleased me, yesterday to be exact. For mothers day our daughter and her fiancée had a cook out. We split the cost and bought a half bushel of steamed crabs, my wife's favorite. The crabs were full and delicious and my wife was happy. We even got to play with the grandkids in the backyard, with no injuries, lol Great day overall. Although at the end of the everyone was mumbling since they all have to go to work today. We'll all but me 😁
  12. I went to bed at 11:00 pm feeling tired but couldn't fall asleep. I felt as if I was wired up. So I tossed and turned and the last time I remember seeing on the clock was 3 something am. I just woke up after having a crazy dream about my now deceased dad. He had come home after being gone (missing) for two days. Only he was NOT himself in mannerism. He was smoking a cigar in the house (that was NEVER allowed nor was smoking for that matter), when he took off his shirt he had a Japanese style full back tattoo and one also on his chest (he was dead set against tattoos), he tried to pull apart his grandfather clock that he had made and prized. The worst thing was I was not able to figure out for the life of me how to use my cell phone to call anyone that could help with figuring out what the heck was going on with dad and I also couldn't find any written phone numbers list that I knew I had written. Then some how the two brothers from a local pizza shop was in the house (I had just visited that shop two days ago), they couldn't help me either with what was going on...I felt so fricken helpless. Craziest dream I've had in awhile. Now I'm wide awake and don't really want to go back asleep fearing I may have a continuation of that dream.
  13. Yeah, that's one of the reasons I bought it. Thanks Carl..
  14. I believe you are correct. It is also a screw bottom.
