Do you have any other pictures of the Stagea?

I had a 2003 Focus Centennial. 2.3 with an automatic. Good performance, great handling. My wife even remarked how much fun it was to drive. I still have the box of Ford Centennial trinkets that came with the car. My daughter had a 2005 SE sedan. Good car, really reliable. It saved my daughter's life when she got it all wrong on a local mountain road and flipped (not rolled) it a couple of times. The car was destroyed but she had minor injuries. I had a 2014 SE hatch with the wonderful powershift transmission. I didn't like the way the transmission functioned. Hesitation when quick acceleration was needed, no way to manually select forward gears. In general the handling and performance were pretty good. One day it temporarily lost power at a really bad time. Traded it in shortly after that.

Nothing in local walmarts.

I think he meant the 64 GTO convertible that was produced by Polar Lights.

"LHS" received a large number of Tamiya and other mfg 1/12-scale Formula 1 kits. I acquired a Tyrrell 003 kit and a Matra V-12 kit.

One of the few I've seen that wasn't school bus yellow.

They haven't fixed the ones in the kits I bought.

Pictures from Spirit of Speed 10 show at the NHRA Museum in Pomona, CA last week. Thanks to all who attended. Over 350 entries, 60 entrants, 130 people through the Museum door. We were able to provide a generous donation to the museum at show's end. Spirit of Speed 10 - November 2025 album | Sfhess | Fotki.com, photo and video sharing made easy.

Yep. Not a "script", but separate letters

Yes I know. Never heard it described thusly. I also remember when whitewall or white stripe tires came with a blue protective coating that needed to be scrubbed off.

Blue whitewall?
