  1. Did the guy buy a rebuilt or used car?....They would have to give me a new one...even if they had to have it specially ordered to match the old one...the dealership is responsible for their employee and proper care and safety of the car while there plain and simple. I worked for dealerships before i know what they are responsible for here anyways...besides they have insurance for things like this..just saying.
  2. Awesome paint Luke...!!!!!
  3. Me too Rob...! Just because some do not like them does not mean they wont sell....here they would and do like hotcakes.
  4. Exactly Larry...! Then to stand there and try to pick a fight with someone weaker than them...I guess the guy was lucky it was me even though he almost ran out of luck with me. In this state one has to go through hoops and ladders long process to get a chance to get a permit...not to mention what they have to go through every day of their lives...to me that should be enough already but like you said there is always someone that just has to let their big mouth open way too quickly. Me...if I am having a rare good day i will park somewhere else so the spot is open for someone else to use and the only thing that can take my pain away is Morphine but cant tolerate it and I have no clue of where i am on it so I just deal with the pain best i can. My disability is permanent and expected to worsen which it has over the years...doctors are amazed that I can get myself to do what i can. One has no clue what others go through till they do themselves...another reason why i show respect to everyone.
  5. WOW!!!! Nice Stian...!!! Been looking for one of those Caddilacs for years...SWEET...!!!
  6. Thanks guys..pretty much ruined my day...by the way he was on a bicycle of all things and he chained it to the parking sign post.
  7. Jason... I like it...my first was nowhere near that good...LOL...
  8. True Harry but it does not make it right...and to try and pick a fight??? If hes in doubt call the police and have them check my parking card...he started in before he ever got to the front of the truck...he was just looking for a fight. Maybe he will learn a lesson over this but I doubt it...our state is now conceal and carry with permit. Way too easy to pick on the weak when one is not.
  9. Oh yeah he ruined my day...I have enough to try and deal with like others...all he would have had to do is look on the dashboard to see the card(state paperwork says place on dashboard or hang from mirror)...if I wouldn't have been alone smaller weaker i would have relocated his jaw bone. Yes there are many that abuse the privilege of a card...me if I can i always park somewhere else figuring if someone feels worse than I can use it but today and during winter weather I needed to.
  10. Just thought Id share this with you all...for some reason there are people out there that think one has to look like some kind of freak or something to be disabled and not all disabled people use the disabled plates(me I use the parking card so I can have it when i ride with someone else)... so ok I got to the store and pull into a disabled parking spot...a early 20s guy on a bike pulls in next to me and says...This is for disabled people only people that need or deserve it very rudely...I say kindly look on my dashboard i have a parking card. He goes off threatening to kick my? and says my dad is disabled! I tell him I am sorry he is I am too...but it does not stop he still wants to fight me so i am waiting for him to through a punch now. After many words i just got in to the store....Why do i and others have to deal with these un-informed or un-educated people????...one does not get a parking card here easily at all so if you have one you qualify and the state paperwork says(place on dash or hang from mirror while parked)I wonder how he would have felt to loose a fight with a disabled guy??? Just never could figure out why some people open their mouths without thinking or knowing what there talking about???
  11. CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When is his first model...?
  12. Id buy them....even parts...
  13. Nice Jim...I had one when I was a kid cant wait till they show up around here...figure too.
  14. Amazing weathering...!!! very nice work!
  15. Hi Glen!....Welcome!
  16. Very COOL...!!! Great weathering!!!
  17. I usually will start at the top and work my way down the page but always have to check out the wanted and trade posts then the builds of others.
  18. Rob...the 71 to 77 vans had basically the same body where in 78 they got ugly...at least in my opinion. The 77 is a good kit remember building one when I was a kid...think I built all the Dodge vans back then...would love to again sometime. I have the 71 window van and Chevy motor home ones but they need a lot of parts to rebuild or replace missing parts to them. I once owned a mid 70s factory custom Dodge van...hoping to build one I have like it once the needed parts are found to. The Chevy motor home one needs all the raised roof parts replaced must be a tube or two of glue just on whats left of the top parts???...these are VERY cool kits.
  19. Nice...I like the big wing cars.
  20. Those sound cool Rob but for me it would be a HUGE load of happiness if the MPC 71 to 77 Dodge vans or the 70s Chevy mini motor home van made a comeback....would have to have several of each!!!
  21. I would love to but rarely can... For me it would be... 60s Station wagons campers 4 doors early to mid 70s Dodge vans Johan kits..even snap tite ones Any 60s long big bodied cars Never get tired of them.
