Parts truck. To fix my GMC. If you guys need any parts, this one may get blown apart. Front axle is beyond repair I think. I need bumpers and spare. All else probably available if you need. Or it might become a hot rod? Ideas? Resto-rod! Got this one at a toy show a couple years ago. Just looks great in that color. Looking to add disc brakes without overpowering the clean look and de-chrome the engine

just buy a plane ticket!
HomerS replied to Spruslayer's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
After the luggage fee, take off/landing tax and all the recent Covid-19 add on fees, a $1,000 round trip ticket may be on the low side..... -
Saw a yard sale on Craig's List for miscellaneous stuff and found some ECHL bobbleheads for the local team. Of course it was after the time of the sale so with little hope I reached out to see if they are still available.....they were. Loaded up this a.m. and arrived at the sale. In talking with the home owners, the gentleman said there are some programs over in the book stack. Fanning through them, the holy grails appear! Programs from WHA and AHL teams of the early 70's to the early 80's. Not mint but very fair prices!!

What did you see on the road today?

Ever had one of those little corner that you rarely venture into and then see something that reminds you how long it's been since you've been there....

I may have to give it a go on the dogs. One is a Husky/Aussie mix and we had the typical one day of spring before the temps hit the mid/upper 80's, The groomer at his vet isn't open yet but others in the area are booked out several weeks.

Got a haircut so no longer look like a muppet. Great Clips were maxing out on their sign in at three hours waits this week. There's nothing i can think of that at this point in my life that I would wait three hours for! The local one had no wait and three technicians. She had it was a zoo last weekend as they had a two to three hour wait.

Etouffee made with shrimp and alligator andouille sausage. The only seafood the wife eats is BBQ salmon. I'm not a big fan of fish but love all the other creatures of the sea. My wife is a nurse so when her 12's fall on the weekend, time for me to break out the stuff she won't eat.

I was hoping to find a can of Pickle Rick Pringles but they never seemed to hit the shelves around here. It's been several months since these were on the internet but last week going through Meijers the wife found this one all by itself. My youngest can have the contents, I just enjoy the show...... I'm Pickle Rick!!

I remember this car from the opening credits of Hogan's Heroes as a kid. It wasn't packaged properly but got a reasonable settlement from the seller so need to do some door and side window repairs

Took piano lessons from 5th thru 8th grade as enjoyed watching him, Elton John, Billy Joel, etc play. The nun told me their form was all wrong as you should positioned over the keys like there was a ball in your hand. They made a well paid career of it while I never touched a piano after 8th grade graduation...... One last "Woo"....RIP

In salute of the first responders to the COVID-19 pandemic, A-10s performed a flyover Indianapolis May 2, 2020. (not my video)..They came in from Terre Haute, made the 465 loop and out 64. Took my teenager and we made the 90 minute drive over to Franklin, IN to see these. It's nice to see them at Wright Patt or just one flying in an airshow, but when do you get to see them in formation and not be the 'target' for the 30mm machine gun on front of it! Although the wife is a RN, this isn't her thing so it was just a guys trip.

What happened to real journalism? This is an actual story from a local TV station website: (I removed the person's name) Police said the shooting victim, {Name Redacted}, 21, was taken to {Redacted} Hospital where he was pronounced dead. {City} police said the investigation is ongoing. The victims name has not been released pending family notification This is why all the stories on Yahoo are videos as none of the 'journalists' can type!

Revell Trabant 601S 30th anniversary of the Berlin Wall
HomerS replied to GeeBee's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Thank you for posting this as I never knew this was made!! This afternoon may be spent looking to acquire it..... My father served seven and half years in the Air Force after high school (honorably discharged), including as a radio operator deployed to West Berlin, Germany during the construction of the Berlin Wall. However as his health declined due to dementia, he was denied moving into a local VA nursing home as that wasn't considered deployment to a hostile territory!! (That lead to a moment like Bluto in the movie Animal House when he went off when his frat brother said it was "over!"). Sorry for the rant.....very sore subject with me -
Yeah it was another one of those GM ideas where they get it dialed in and then pulled the plug on Pontiac (albeit Holden built). Because of the age I doubt they will rebuild it.

Jack Daniels Truck

That was the first thing that went through my mind as well.... Best build of this kit I've seen!! -
Until a couple hours ago, a mint 2009 Pontiac G8. The light turned green and the oncoming driver felt the need to make the left turn (there is no arrow light). Still got the smell of the airbag in my nose

Glad the foursome didn't have a vet appointment today as this was right next to their office...... Any landing you walk away from is a good landing!
