  1. When I was in Charlotte (Concord actually) for the big race, I was in hog heaven. Grits, biscuits n gravy, sausage, all could be had at the Waffle House. They don't have that in Wisconsin. If I ever get rich, I'm buying a Waffle House franchise.
  2. Hey Zebulon, is that a Hussein Special in your sig?
  3. Sunbeam Venezia Duffer, you just have to love a car called the Humber Super Snipe
  4. I'll try this again. It's a Bond! Model might be the Equipe GT
  5. I don't think the SA site would allow me to do that But I will put it elsewhere.
  6. I was in second or third grade. My gramps got me a 62 Mercury kit that I built and went into the basement and found a can of red enamel Rust-O-Leum paint and brush painted it. My mom says I slept with that car for months until it broke from too much play. http://www.conceptcarz.com/view/photo/9869...erey_Photo.aspx This pic is a real one, not the model :lol: really would like another one to do right.
  7. It looks like a triumph Herald on the sides but the roof and grille throw me off.
  8. I think the red car is a Scripps Booth, but really not sure.
  9. I believe Laura was just a High School student when she did that. It was truly an unfortunate accident, hardly like leaving the scene and letting your passenger drown while you go home, sleep it off, get up, contact attorneys and then call police.
  10. We had that on the agenda here in Wisconsin, but the liberal butt-tards that run this state shot it down. Thanx to you Zeb for learnin' us carpet baggers 'bout the real history of those flags. I had always wanted to put the Stars and Bars on a Dukes Charger and post it "you know where" and see if the "Sheriff" would catch it. :( :lol:
  11. Admit it, the new GF doesn't like you to have a hobby that takes time away from her. My GF likes my hobby and me. She even buys me stuff to surprise me. Always make sure the one you love is someone you like, and she, you.
  12. Listen to all three versions, originally released by The Daytonas in 64, then J&D in 66, followed by the Who in 66 The Who http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdG8JG8EO3U Jan and Dean http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O04lvwUi5tA Ronnie And The Daytonas
  13. When an HHR does the Nurburgring at 155 mph, I think the Ecotech DOES cut it. Very easily modded engine and gives decent performance and economy in it's stock form, both 2.2 and 2.4 versions. The turbo 2.0 is cool. I love my Ecotech powered car. Arrogant!? WHat does that make Ecuador with 90 cent a gallon gas? We certainly do not think we are entitled to cheap fuel, but certainly we should not hinder companies that could explore and drill and build and maintain refineries. I think the lefties are the arrogant ones with their self inflicted guilt trips over the environment and climate change and PETA and all the rest. We will get the government we so richly deserve this fall.
  14. YUP! Even with all I've listed, I've got the largest car song collection in my area amongst fellow DJs that do car shows. The list I posted is just a small portion of what i have.
  15. I have a disc with over ten versions of that song. Bill Kirchen and the Too Much Fun Band did a cool version where he imitates the style of several different famous bands and guitarists during the middle of the song. Everyone from Johnny Cash, Elvis, dick Dale, and even BB King and others. Kirchen played with Commander Cody and the Lost Planet Airmen

  18. I support my LHSs, but we have good ones in the Milwaukee, Kenosha, and Racine areas. First, Greenfield News And Hobbies is excellent. Lot's of kits plus everything else like magazines (all kinds) from model mags to car mags, craft, news, political, science, art, music, writing, puzzles and even those...uh...the ones you find under Gregg's bed! :D:D:o:o<_< Can be pricey but atleast our model club gets a discount, plus it is where I can buy my art supplies. Then, Model Empire is also a great one, great kit selection and our club displays our builds there. They also have OOP kits for sale, plus military, rockets, Breyer horses and the largest selection of photo-etch I've seen anywhere. Prices are low, and there is always the shelf with the new release stuff at discount. I rarely buy online anywhere as I am in the process of going completely debt free and have cut up all the credit cards save one.
  19. Unless in the shops for a repaint, most railroads (and other fleet operators) ordered the basic color from the fleet sellers book and paint was applied at the factory. You might find a few repainted color over white trucks used by railroads and utilities. My dad worked for the Milwaukee Road, later known as Soo Line after the merge. I think it's now Canadian National.
  20. Who carries Mr. Tapani's resin models?
  21. Oh Stop That!! How Emo! Suck it up and get back here.
  22. It's a model, I seen it in a magazine.
  23. Can't wait for that one , Rick. I talked with Gary a while back and yes, it will be great. I have been sworn to secrecy, so don't bug me about it.
  24. Yes, you have to re-up, but you can use your old username and password. I even retained my old post count.
  25. The Chevrolet Bros made that for the Buick racers Louis drove. Maybe.
