    Back in 1991 I went with a friend to Oatman AZ along the Route 66, several years before he was riding his old Harley through there and saw a RT 66 sign down in a gulley/ ravine/ culley (depending where you're from) he went down and hid the sign better. We went in his Toyota truck to find it, It was still there and it hangs on the side of his body shop currently. Oatman was a fun town with donkeys everywhere.

    Mike I totally agree with you on the justice system, I hear it every day from my wife witnessing it. And your solution with a rope should not be limited to low lives but the 🐍 lawyers that get them off.

    Careful for what you wish for, When I get to cleaning out storage this summer - I still have your address 😄

    Dang that is sad to hear, he was a regular contributor to the Big Rigs column. I think he lived in West Virginia.

    Anthony - that's gonna be a super color combination and the tire /wheel combo is great . Truth be known the gold flame decals twisted my arm to buying this kit. 😄

    Thank you both for the valuable tidbits of information. I'm not stressing this build for much accuracy - its just for total fun and not let a plastic kit get the best of me. I agree the front end is outrageous, kinda like the inspiration of the "Carolina Squat" Once completed it will be in my opinion of a model that fits in with the "weirdos line" !

    My most favorite Allied jet to build as models. They were such "bad bootys" 😄 - Thanks for the link!!

    Very Impressive and even more bonus points since they are not resin bodies , I love the colors. 😎

    I'm pretty sick of everything you buy saying made in chi'na whether it be models or appliances.

    After 8 years of renting this place we just signed the paperwork to buy it. Now everything will go to principle, and we can make the place look like a loved home instead of a rental. Its small but I have a hobby room!

    Bob - Its cool you have found your way back to the hobby. There are a lot of us here on the forum who still love the old kits you mentioned. Don't worry about your first few messages being approved, Quality forums do that to weed out spammers that just want to post links and other garbage.

    Oh I knew better than that as there was no mention of airbags and a firm chassis 🙄
  14. Old Buckaroo
    Now that was definitely worth the read and watch !! 😎

    Carl - Those old square body cars are really what I was after. But it was buy all or none, also included was over 100 bottles of new paint, spray booth, compressor, ect ect It was a good haul.

  17. Old Buckaroo
    Fabulous build and what a Clever Heading - it caught my curiosity!

    Technically not today but Wednesday, I just brought them in from the car. Not shown is the Double kit Nascar's, and the 1/16 kits.

    Niko - What an Impressive model, Ive really enjoyed following along on this project. I doubted your sanity a few times especially when you did the clutch linkage, and for such a detail you made it look not intimidating. Top Notch work all the way !!

    Bill - I'm really happy you like the book and a really impressive review you left for it. That Colorado Midland RR plan is dangerous to me every time I look at it.

    Shipping containers - the reason most towns/ burgs/ wide spots on the map don't allow them as they are not a taxable structure. If you buy or build a storage shed that is "stick built" the county or town can tax it. Shipping containers they haven't figured out a tax for them.

    My son and I always watch the 1980 movie "Used Cars" when he comes home, we pretty much love every car / truck driven in the high school driving class convoy.
  23. Old Buckaroo
    We have some moron that does that in our town also in the middle of the night. My wife thinks they are trying to hide the smell of them cooking meth.
  24. Old Buckaroo
    Now that is cool and you did a great job with it. I need one of those relics on my shelf. 😎 We had CO2 cars when I was in cub scouts. After I got older I found out that model rocket (Estes) engines were way funner !
  25. Old Buckaroo
    You are very welcome If you can honestly say you don't like that book, Ill send you a Vintage HO kit! 😎
