  1. Car, car C-A-R, stick your head in a candy jar.
  2. Please, Susanna Hoffs never shopped at Wal-Mart. Never mind, I'm just a little slow today
  3. Well, it's a whole lot better then duct tape.😁 I think by the time you paint everything it will look nice and tidy.
  4. User error is something I have to deal with more often these days as technology is becoming smarter then the customer.
  5. Bit, used to be able to get a shave and a haircut for two of them, now everyone thinks you are talking computer language.
  6. Domicile for my dog is supposed to be his doghouse but more times then not I find him sleeping in my bed then I'm in the doghouse.
  7. Trade of mine we use a power stairclimber
  8. I just got on it no problem.
  9. Jeannie is a better dream then Genie
  10. Firsts for Old's is the Curved Dash or model R which is considered the first mass produced vehicle built on an assembly line.
  11. Daily thing for me. Latest I've seen is a text from E-Zpass saying I have an overdue bill. Instructs you to log into a bogus website.
  12. Arts and crafts are on Tuesday afternoon and bingo is on Wednesday the woman at the head of the room exclaimed, I turned on heel as I couldn't get out of there fast enough.
  13. Starting to have second thoughts about this old bird. It slipped off my lap one day last week and when it hit the floor it broke off the right rear corner and the left front corner. I was able to pick up the pieces and repair the damage but it got me to thinking that the body seems rather fragile. You can usually drop a body 2 feet and it doesn't break like this. Then to add to this I was going through the stash over the weekend and I found I had two more '67 birds. Once I saw them I remembered them, one I build years ago and painted with Testors out of the can. Paint job sucked so I stripped it. For some reason I didn't strip the hood. Other is a builder I picked up at a show at some point that has the custom bumpers on it. Put the painted one into the drink this evening and the lone hood. See how they come out and I might rethink my path on this build. Another issue that makes me think the jump might be the way to go is I can't get the dash and front seats out of the promo interior. Whatever AMT glued things in with is exceptionally stubborn. Stay tuned...
  14. Greg is it my imagination or was the majority vote against the slanted "B" pillars on your other 36 Ford build.🤔 But then again Jim hasn't chimed in so maybe that will tip the scales🤣
  15. Bob, that's a reasonable hypothesis. As for the ones on there now they are going to stay, too far into this build to sand them off now. Besides, the engine in the original car was a 390 so either badge would be incorrect.
  16. Thanks guys, I think the blue will really pop once I get some clear on it. Fingers crossed I don't bugger it up before then.
  17. That's right Mike. I may even try to do the same lights on a Falcon and see how they look. Thanks Jim, I think I lucked out by the fact they fit so well. That's the way I'm leaning David. Picked up a bunch of styrene strips thinking of making the rails with them. I need to mock up the suspension parts on the chassis and see how it looks.
