  1. I breifly read about the Falcon becoming essentially a Torino; gets extremely confusing since the Fairlane also morphed into the Torino.
  2. Yikes they were living in the car, that's even worse! ; I thought you disturbed them in the bush while clearing out the path for the car; figured it was a ground wasp nest situation (as mine was) and would've suggesting pouring gasoline into the hole and then light a blow torch and just burn the nest in the ground. If no one was stung, and they're not in the car anymore, that's the main thing.
  3. Awesome find; have to admit I do have a soft spot for the fox body Mustangs. Looks like it has lots of potential. Careful of those wasp nests you said you disturbed; did a similar thing two weeks ago and got stung 3 times.
  4. Looks very cool; love those Malaise Era cars
  5. I can imagine the listing: “Neat Green Bug with Chrome Stripes” $500. In good condition, no chrome polishing needed. Makes good decor piece.
  6. Looks very awesome; love the ‘59 Oldsmobiles
  7. Looks great; love the '58 to '60 Lincs. Built AMT's '59 hardtop. Also nice curbside kits.
  8. Looks absolutely stunning; very clean build. Like it a lot. Built the '59 Imperial also. It's a great, easy kit.
  9. That's absolutely awesome. A boat tail Riv is on my list of cars to get one day. Used to be a black and white '71 or '72 in town, sitting in a camping trailer storage lot, rotting away. Then one day it was gone. Have fun with your car. Red is a great colour too.
  10. That is true; and I've seen vintage radios for sale that have been converted to a "blue tooth" stereo system, where they just gut the radio's ancient internals and put a whole new system in and it connects to your phone and whatnot, but I'm not a huge fan of that idea but I'm not 100% ruling it out as an option. For now though it'll be in my desk drawer. May or may not bring it to a car show to show my friend who also likes vintage stuff.
  11. Got my 1962 Oritone transistor radio back from my dad’s friend who fixes stuff like that. And unfortunately he couldn’t fix it, and if he says he can’t fix it then it’s done because he knows his stuff. A shame because I liked the radio. I guess a plus is now I gotta find a new one but it’s just disappointing that it was working perfectly for a month and that was it.
  12. So that's the red car on the top... wasn't sure what that was. I was aiming for that gorgeous '57 Sport Sedan Bel Air. I'd love to have one of those for sure.
  13. Looks cool; the backdrop is awesome. I’ve been meaning to try and photograph a model using perspective in front of a real garage so the scale looks real. But the photo you’ve got in the background definitely works
  14. Also on the way home yesterday we stopped at a place for lunch and a '75 Ford Elite came in and parked.
  15. On Saturday evening I was in a book store, and then looked out the window and two Dodge Darts, a Barracuda, a shortbox Chevy and a '40 Ford drove past. Parked at a restaurant close by so I had to check them out. Some of those cars came up for the Copper Cliff show (held yesterday) that was the purpose of our trip.
  16. Saw this awesome Chevy truck on Saturday, also in Sudbury.
  17. Saw these convertibles yesterday in Sudbury, Ont.
  18. That does look very good; quite a difference it makes. Nice car by the way, also a fellow ‘69 Pontiac owner.
