  1. Sometimes his voice reminded me of John Kay from Steppenwolf .
  2. Made the usual stop at Hobby Lobby for the 40% off thing. Picked up the last 2 deserters (just to get the mirriors) and a Revell 1/24 bug. I figure, if I ever come across one of those resin baja bugs. I'll have the donor for it. I did notice something weird. They must have a new way of sealing some of their kits. Instead of shrink wrapping the entire box, they use these 4 clear circular tape sort of things. The styrene is mostly for tube bumpers and I had an idea about scratch building a front axel.
  3. Sonic Youth's haunting rendition of - Superstar The Carpenters classic.

    Nice! Is that Hemi orange? Love that color. ?
  5. Yeah! Make it a wheel stander. ?
  6. You gotta build the shorty. ?
  7. Nice! This is the era of racing that I love. When sex was safe and racing was dangerous.
  8. Almost forgot this one. Sort of 2 birds with 1 stone. Elvis Hitler - Green Haze
  9. The Sonics - Walkin' the Dog. Rufus Thomas cover.
  10. Most of you remember him as the frontman of the Screaming Trees and his collaborations with Queens of the Stone Age but he had many side projects over the years. Here is a song he wrote for his good friend Kurt Cobain after he died.
  11. Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds- In the Ghetto. Mac Davis cover. You may remember Elvis's cover of this
  12. Nice Mike. Could a Blazer be coming next? (Ya knew I had to ask)?
  13. Found a few more. My cousins in the Mack lowboy and my cousin who appears to be on the phone but I'm pretty sure it was the 80s so phones were much bigger then and only millionaires had them. That's another one of my cousins Mavricks back there. The last shot was one year my cousins hunting cabin upstate PA. Chevy squarebody in the background. Sorry about the side flip. I cant seem to fix it
  14. Sorry about the side flip. I can't seem to fix it. He was the only one that got a buck that year but my cousin and I both got a mouse that drove us nuts every night.
  15. I finally found that picture of guy who got the blotchy deer. It had the mirror image patern on the other side. I don't remember this guy's name he is one of my cousins inlaws.
  16. Replacements - Cool Water. Bob Nolan cover.
  17. Had to switch to my phone. Some of the old Brockway from when my dad was in business. I k ow I have some pics somewhere of the 73 F 250 we had as well as a few more.
  18. Have 4 pics of my bus and 1 with my dads bike. I have a few more on my phone.
  19. I stumbled on to this old J.C. Whitney catalog page that I remember fondly. We were all gonna build one of these and the car was gonna be the cheap part. Remember those days?
  20. Theres a tread on this on the next page . I use this stuff.
  21. Mines not decades but its gotta be the Motion '70 Camaro. Mainly because I have multiple versions of the exact car in 1/18 diecast. Wouldn't mind an orange one though.
  22. The first album that took me from a kid who had no idea about music to a youngster that first discovered what rock n roll was was hands down Led Zeppelins first album. I had no idea what rock n roll was before that and it was a fluke because I ended up with a box of my older cousins records. Also in that box was Cream, Jefferson Airplane, Bowie, Doors, Woodstock and so on. Then in high school a friend gave me the vinyl, 3 record set of the Clash - Sandinista and it was I was blown away with this barrage of great music that was very new to me. After high school, we had just gotten cable tv and like any other kid I was watching MTV when this band from Scotland comes on called the Jesus and Mary Chain (Psycho Candy) and my jaw hit the floor. I was instantly hooked. Then I started to listen to a lot of collage radio (WPRB Princeton mainly) and discovered a little band from Boston called the Pixies that had just recorded Surfer Rosa and I haven't ever looked back.
  23. Great wheel/tire combo! ?
