  1. That's what I usually end up doing as well.
  2. My main focus when behind the wheel is driving. Besides it is difficult to transfer photos from my phone to computer.
  3. Saturday: A caravan of Healeys: Bugeye Sprite, Jensen Healey and a 100-6. Aston Martin DBX. 65 Pontiac Grand Prix.
  4. That sounds about right.
  5. Pretty sure that was not the case.
  6. By then Ford created the LTD Brougham as the top of the line and the "vanilla" LTD was downgraded.
  7. It would be fairly easy to scratchbuild a Sanden compressor using Evergreen tube and sheet.
  8. I thumbed through the latest issue at Barnes & Noble. Interesting but not worth the $7.99 cover price.
  9. I bought the R&T book. There is some interesting stuff in there, but it's not worth the cover price. The magazines of John Bond, Henry N. Manney, Rob Walker, Tony Hogg, David E. Davis. Brock Yates, et al are no more. Octane is what a car magazine should be.
  10. Profanity and leading zeros on page numbers. Really?
  11. There was a company doing those conversions. Don't recall the name.
  12. Not to mention.....
  13. The Country Squire in the movie is a 63.
  14. The radio IS on the left side of the instrument cluster on 69-70 full-size Fords. The control knobs are below the radio dial. One of my friends used to reach across to change stations while her mother was driving.
  15. Speed City Resins has a really good resin pulley and belt set. The belt is flexible black resin.
  16. 68 Mercury Cyclone 72 Montego GT Triumph TR6 73 Pontiac Grand Am 78 Malibu
  17. I found an assembled blue 57 Thunderbird, with box, at NNL West last year.
  18. Visited Hobby Lobby. Got a Revell Land Rover and a 69 Boss 302 kit, taking advantage of the 40% off deal. Also 7 bottles of Model Master flats and metal paint (Still a fairly good selection at the local store)
  19. It was hard to find a 1:1 Z car with stock wheels and covers. Most dealerships added "mandatory" aftermarket wheels at the very least.
  20. Yes. Here in Palmdale, California. I was in the middle of telling my daughter something and was reduced to "OOOOOO! OOOOO!".
  21. Also a couple days ago: 56 Dodge on a flatbed and a 70s Jeepster on a trailer.
