  1. well , sliced the end of my thumb off on the table saw yesterday morning , lost about a half inch below the thumbnail . That's what I get for wearing cloth gloves working around power tools , a spiral of metal caught in the glove when I tried to pull it free and yanked my hand into the blade . Now I get to go to the orthopedic surgeon and have him tell me there's nothing he can do , nothing left to sew up , might have to work on the bone , it splintered a little on the tip . Should make vacation at the beach next week fun , was looking forward to doing a little deep sea fishing , not so sure now . All in all it could have been a lot worse , just have to adjust to thumb bandaged hand now. " Keep moving forward "
  2. I think these are the ones you're looking for ? probably have to bend them out of solder to get the best match.
  3. They finished the drain replacement in the street in front of my house and left me half a pallet of sod . Hi Ho Hi Ho it's off to work I go.
  4. Welcome to the second half of life , I retired 6 years ago June and don't know when I had time to work . You stay busy doing things you want to do and enjoy .
  5. Just think of it as two heat races , then the main . I haven't had a lot of interest since they stopped using stock cars to start with.
  6. Should have called the cops any way , no matter what time of day , a public nuisance can be any time .
  7. Thanks
  8. Hey Gerald , Good to have you back in the land of sunshine , there are a couple of clubs , if you're interested . One meets at the Hobby Lobby on Old St Augustine Rd every Wed and I go to a meeting , when I can , in Ocala , to the Fast car club . Both have good guys that are willing to share information and make suggestions. If you have any questions just let me know. Robert
  9. Here's a link to my build . http://s155.photobucket.com/user/Robn30/library/Son%20of%20Ford%20gasser
  10. If the lack of a separate frame bothers you , add a strip of styrene to the inside of the fender unit , I added it to attach the new suspension for my gasser.
  11. I believe the pontiac has a longer wheel base the the chevy , but it may be unnoticeable in 1/25 . The difference is 9" , 115" to 124" .( numbers from the internet )
  12. Your paint detail is excellent .
  13. talk about having some kind of catch phrase !
  14. Nice job , looks well thought out and executed .
  15. Loosing Harry is a great loss for us and the hobby , but in the end we'll all meet him again. I'll pray for his family , I know first hand how loosing a father feels . He's in a better place now with no pain or worries , rest in peace Harry . We'll miss you .
  16. Jim , I think the misprint is great , I'd want to keep the trophy just the way it is.
  17. Looking at the pics ,they look real close with just changing the door lines,
