This is the time of day I need to go figure out what I’m going to make for dinner.

ATM is what we would have if the person that worked at AMT was dyslexic.

I wouldn't be so certain, they can be very sneaky.

Out house should never be confused with an ATM when you want to make a deposit.

Aim is what you buy before your next visit to the dentist.

Bil, you need to stop looking for that part and go do something else, that's when the part will show up. Hopefully you are there when it does and not Topher's squirrels.

There is always a '41 lurking around the corner.😆

Greg, it seems like these models have been forgotten. In fact I wouldn't have thought to build this if I wasn't searching for a steering wheel for my Galaxie.

I suppose with six of them the odds are good that one will be running when you need it.

Paint without the "P" just aint the same.

Fools is what Aunt Ester always used to call Fred but not Lamont.

Cousin's Pizza is a popular name in this area so much so you would think they are a chain but as far as I know they are not related.

Thanks Jim. After all the work on the original body it might seem a shame to walk away from it. But it has broken twice in different places since I started on it and now has had three of the four corners repaired. Don't want to go and paint it only to have something else break on it then. If I didn't have a second body I would have kept on with it but as I have two others it makes more sense to move on.

Red Riding Hood

Interwebs, I honestly hate that term because it is such a misnomer.

Always loved these cars. Haven't built one since they were new so I'm interested in seeing what you do.

Here is a quick mock-up of the Bird, this is still with the original body. But now I'm going to switch to a different body that seems more stable, because I'm not. I picked up some 3-D prnted wheels from Jay's Resin Wheels. 17" Halibrand-Eleanor wheels. I like the look of them but I'm thinking I want to go with something wider in the rear. Dug this tire on the right out of the parts box. But to get them to fit I will have to tub the rear wheels. Even thought I'm switching to a different body I will stick to the junkyard rescue chassis. If I screw it up I still have a good original chassis to fall back on. As for the body, I took the two alternate choices I had, one needed to be stripped of paint, which took some oven cleaner to accomplish. It came out looking like new, so I decided to save that for another time. The other was stripped years ago but had some issues. Body number three had some errant scribe lines around the trunk from someone in the past. Don't know if there is a better way to handle this but I took some Tamiya masking tape and ran it over the proper trunk opening leaving the stray scribe line exposed. Then I filled the line with Tamiya putty and wet sanded smooth when dry. Another issue with this body and the main reason I choose it is the 'C' pillar emblems are very faint. Not a problem as this is getting a vinyl top and the emblem has to go anyway. Vinyl top models have a carriage hinge type trim on the pillar but as my inspiration from this build is blank there we don't need to bother with it. Also looks like the rocker trim has to go as well. Next on the agenda is the strip that needs to be added around the base of the 'C' pillar for the vinyl top as well as a trim piece on the 'A' pillar. But that will have to wait for another time as the dogs are bugging fore their dinner, and I'm sure Wifey won't be far behind. See ya next time, same Bat channel...
