  1. Just unboxed som goodies from Texas 3D customs. I highly recommend the modern short boards. Nice job on the fins Charles. Also got some big and little 5 slots and Goodyears for an up coming street van I have in the works. Some boggers and another winch bumper. ?
  2. Big 1/16 amt '57 Nomad should look good with the proper stance. The supplied Cragar S/S mags a d street tires will look good with some white lettering. As for color, I'm leaning towards metallic black with a silver and black interior. With this mpc 1/16 Firebird kit, I can modify it somewhat.
  3. These came today. Both massive 1/16. I'm thinking of doing the Nomad as a street machine. The Cragar S/S wheels and street tires are really nice Got a can of black metallic for this one. I'll be using both sets of front seats as well as the tires, console, shifter, headers and some speed parts. If you can use the rest of the kit, shoot me a PM . I like everything off road. Kits, tires,parts. Also some 1/16 stuff.
  4. I was of that generation that used to run home from school every day to watch Monkees re-runs. A few songs stick out that I actually felt were good. She was one of these songs. Originally written by Bobby Heart and Tommy Boyce.
  5. Someware in NC or SC .Coming home sunrise around VA. Florida is a bogger state than i thought.
  6. Amtrak roomett, fine dinning car
  7. I developed a new appreciation for trams when I took Amtrak from here in Pilly to West Palm beach FL. To visit family this past May. Never too the train that far before (24 hrs.) A lot less hassle and a lot more room than flying. However, I got a small private room which cost considerably more than flying. All meals were free with the room and on the way down I got to enjoy the Amtrak "Fine Dinning" which I felt was better than 1st class on any airline. It was a pretty cool experience. I got to take my time and watch the states go by. Cars were freezing cold, and the room thermostats were phony. so, bring a light jacket of hoodie. The rest of my family flew down and they were all miserable. Almost got canceled going home. Next time I go out L.A. I'm going to look into Amtrak again. You have to share the rails with the firelight trains and the have the right of way, so your train has to move over and wait for the freight train to pass. Below are som pics.
  8. Another good series. I Shouldn't be Alive. Documentary type series about people's stories about survival. I was prey was a series about people surviving attacks from wild animals.
  9. Magic Bus - Also covered by Swervedriver.
  10. This van shares the same basic body as the Revell mean mudder. Just a thought.
  11. Can't believe I forgot Sexy Beast. Gotta go back and watch that one again.
  12. Can't forget my 1970 GTO project car. The day I sold it (other is a '71 LeMans parts car).
  13. I forgot Until the End of the World.
  14. Lately, I really like On Patrol Live. Real police on patrol. I used to love that Rescue me show with Dennis Leary about the 911 firemen. Justified is also back with a new season. Also, a lot of those food shows. But they make me really hungry. ??
  15. More chepo plastic shelves. But they cost me over $100.
  16. I would get one, but I already have all the trailers I need right now. It is nice though.
  17. While some of the kits come with some nice vintage style boards. I have yet to see a single short border with 3 fins. The finger boards are all too big. Anyway, I hope you are wrong and the wind up selling quote well. I hope they prove to be worth your while. You might be pleasantly surprised.
  18. That sounds great! Thanks Charles. ?
  19. Lately, I really like On Patrol Live. Real police on patrol. Also, a lot of those food shows. But they make me really hungry . ??
  20. I used to use about a 6'4" to 6'6" thruster. If you need me to send you the finger board to scan I can. Who knows. They might sell pretty well.
  21. HPI Guy has the build already!
  22. I was a fan of that 3rd watch too Carl. ?
  23. 1 and 2. I gotta go with Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul also. 3 I really miss this sitcom called Grounded for Life. 4. That 70s Show. 5. That Anthony Bourdain series. He was always hanging out with cool rock stars.
