Rodent

I snagged an original one a while back on the 'Bay for dirt cheap, possibly because the seller ended the auction when nobody in the U.S. was awake. It looks like a nice kit, and I am glad they are bringing it back.

I did NOT purchase several kits that seemed interesting after watching HPI Guy build them. Nothing to do with his build, I just decided that the kits weren't appealing after all. On the other hand, I picked up the Revell 1/16th scale Porsche 356 after seeing it built. I wouldn't normally have interest in that, but it is overall a nice kit.

It is fun to see Madonna treated like that since Guy Richey directed it. I also enjoyed "The Ticker" (I think that was the name). Much of it was filmed around here.

are you sure?

I looked at your build thread, but must admit that I TL;DR a lot of things. I would like more info on the air cleaner, since the 1967 390 GT/GTA Mustang and Fairlane have kind of an oddball unit with the two screens and no snorkel.

Sorry, no '67-'68 coupes other than some (and some not so well done) resins. I would love a '68 coupe kit or decent resin or 3D. Owned this Diamond Blue one from August 1977 to May 2001. 302-4V, toploader, disc brakes, AM/FM stereo. Gratuitous shirtless pic probably from 1992. Mostly original paint on a car that had been garaged most of its life. Never ventured more than 3-400 miles of where it was born in San Jose, CA 4/5/68. Wish I hadn't rehomed it 😞

You can't say that on here Mike, LOL 🤭

In my case, part of the guy's sentence was to pay restitution and that is why the D.A.'s letter came some time after the event. I really don't remember what he was charged with or convicted of. He had meth in his car, he was drunk, and the damage he did to my car would have qualified for felony vandalism. Vandalism is "wobbly" in California, it can in some cases be charged as felony or misdemeanor. It was definitely enough monetary damage to be charged as a felony, but they may not have done that. The guy looked about 17, but the cop told me he was 22 so he was getting a ride to "The Big Boy Jail".

That's a 1st Edition. They start at $65495 USD or $69995 USD with 4 MOTION.

Just on fish

I went through a similar situation a few years back. A drunk was having a meltdown on a freeway onramp after having his car break down. He decided that throwing rocks was good therapy and took out my windshield and put a good sized dent in my passenger rear door. Cops were called, he was arrested, drugs were found, etc. It cost me my $250 deductible, plus I upgraded my rental car to something other than the brown Kia Rio that Enterprise wanted to give me. I think I was out around $325 or so. I got a letter from the D.A. offering restitution. I sent them my receipts and I got a check from them about a month later. My insurance company was out around $3500, so I told the adjuster that the guy was being made to pay restitution. They couldn't have been less interested in recouping the money they paid for the claim.

OK, that looks like a Ford Escape to me which isn't an electric car. It may be a PHEV (or HEV, or ICE), but the battery pack isn't the size of an actual electric car if it is a hybrid, and it has a dead dinosaur juice storage device (gas tank) in any case. Lots of things can catch a garage on fire, and the cars inside burn quite nicely when ignited by other sources. My best wishes to your neighbors. Please post if there is a Go Fund Me for them.

stoner in college

This was a while ago. The Ranger had non-remote flag-style mirrors. The more I think about it, I think that I gave Dad two Crown Royal drawstring bags to cover the mirrors with 🙂 Dad's next door neighbor had an F250 with color-matched steelies and dog-dish caps. They weren't overly shiny or anything, but the crows would parade around it, stopping to look at their reflection, pooping on the driveway.

dipped in mustard

Dad had the same issue a long time ago with his Ranger. I have forgotten what kind of bird it was, but it would sit on the mirror, lean forward, and peck at its reflection in the mirror. It got so excited that it could just....... well, you know the rest. Dad started wrapping a towel over the mirror and the problem went away.

The most random piece of discarded trash I have ever seen was a clockspring from a vehicle steering column in an alley in Monterey, CA. The alley smelled strongly of pee as well.
