Went to the beach today, and at a roadside hot dog/burger joint saw a sharp dark red '54-55 Corvette (don't think it was '53--those were all white?). Whitewall tires w/ matching red steelies, no wheel covers. Looked very clean..should have taken a pic.

I've used Mint Mobile for a few years after 20+ years w/ Verizon. Overall been happy w/ their service. My annual fee is about what 3 months on Verizon was.

Got a couple of the new ‘64 Malibus in the mail today, along with a ‘65 Mustang promo in decent shape.

The FB group is up to 971 members, lots of photos posted. Seems pretty active. Makes sense to go where people are, plus having no cost of maintaining a website…

A '61 Fury would have been better than a '57...more evil/deranged looking, IMO.

The '59 Dodge has a good scowl, and the '61 Plymouth looks like an angry insectoid alien.

Definitely expanded compared to the original:

They have really good stuff... I've bought several of their prints off of eBay.

As an adult, I've lived in Ohio, Michigan, Colorado and Arizona. Arizona was a one plate state, bought my current Jeep there in 2017, it didn't have a front bracket..moved to Ohio right after I bought it, had to get a front bracket installed. Then a few years ago, Ohio switched to being a one-plate state..so I took off the front plate and put a Jeep logo plate on it, my 2019 Cadillac I recently bought has a front bracket, put a Cadillac logo plate on it, and on my '87 Mustang GT put a vintage Ford Motorsport plate on the front.

New goodies from Australia..

There was a green 70s one in the Phoenix area I used to see when I lived out there..neat variations.

Mine came today.

From months of triple digit heat to four distinct seasons was one of the reasons I moved away from the desert 7 years ago.

Days go by.

Hours it can take to cook a good meal.

DoorDash and Grubhub had too many errors with deliveries, thus generally I've found UberEats to be preferable, at least in my area.

Different generations..the LJ was a facelift of the LC. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holden_Torana

I've seen that on valet signs. I've never tried to valet park one of my manual trans cars, though. I learned to drive in the mid 80s in both automatics and manuals (my Dad's '79 Dodge Power Wagon 4x4 pickup, '85 Lincoln Town Car, and '84 Ford Escort diesel w/ 5spd manual), have owned several manuals (2 Fox body Mustangs, a Bronco II, an E36 BMW M3). Still have my '87 Mustang GT w/ a manual and drive it occasionally. My current primary vehicles have modern smooth automatics--my Jeep GC has a ZF 8 speed and my Cadillac a 10 speed.

https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100007395526458 I usually send him a message through Facebook (his profile is the link above). He sent me a catalog w/ my latest purchase of '69 and '70 Rancheros.

Yes, he does. '67 and '68 coupes, along w/ variations like the California Special and Shelby Green Hornet.

Neat...I vaguely remember the 1:1 car from magazines and the kit, will be nice to see one built.

I'll probably get one of each..the stock 2dr sedan would be nice w/ a slant 6.

Cosmetically the big difference is the rear bumper w/ continental kit and porthole roof on the '56 and absence of those on the '55. I like this really clean '55:

Mail call today..

I pretty much only stream and am selective w/ what I watch... I like Apple TV+, various channels on Prime (Acorn, BritBox, MhZ, PBS Masterpiece, Paramount+, etc) and occasionally Netflix and Hulu. I like YouTube for music and music documentaries, along w/ a bunch of automotive channels.
