Along those lines.. the local oil change place sent me an email that I was surely in need of an oil change based on the time from my last one.. checked the car.. only 1000 miles!

That does look nice! Great job!

Old crusty Toyota Land Cruiser hopefully on its way to being restored

Great model! The simple bed is perfect!

On social security

On my way to work on Friday. Same garage I posted earlier had moved some cars around.. love the Scout! Pennsylvania Turnpike on Saturday. MG goes for a ride!

Licorice flavored gum?

Rick- there’s a big shortage of school bus drivers. Check around. Here in PA and NJ they’re advertising in the $20s per hour plus sign on bonuses.

Bob- my trick on hood fit is to tape the hood to the body. Then glue both the radiator shell and body in at the same time. Once in position, tape the hood to the radiator shell as well

Collecting pandemic money ?

Right down to the Tamiya stand in the paint booth! Was scale mentioned?

Hey, my father was an army officer!

Many years ago a friend at work was looking at an island beach scene on a calendar. She said something like, “I’d rather be there than in the office.” I replied, “There’s nothing stopping you from being on that beach this time tomorrow”. Think about that one! I’ve sat in the airport watching the thousands of people scurrying by.. thinking how incredible it was that they’d all be sleeping thousands of miles apart that night. Of course that was pre pandemic!

Ya know.. there’s that poetic justice that he got to go into space for real. Me? I’m happy they brought him back! ?

Well like la-dee-da!

Looks great! ?

Hmmm.. I thought all the Microsoft reps were named Skippy

Totally screwed! Im hearing the same in my other hobbies.. multiple categories people depend on smashed. And we’re all getting emails with new mandatory fields in “item specifics” that must be updated that make no sense at all. For instance in my selling category of stamps/ historic covers (used mail of historic significance), I’ve been ordered to add an attribute of “Color”.. um, envelopes are generally white and nobody would ever search this category by color! So do I update 400 listings or bow out? And the thing that absolutely makes no sense is that eBay will auto fill these fields without telling you! For instance I listed an item with a Blue River, Kentucky postmark. EBay decided the color was “blue” and then copied it onto my next 20 listed before I noticed. My user name has “turtle” in it… so they started filling in the theme field with turtle. Then I had people asking me what my item had to do with turtles. Their work is being done by people who no doubt have no experience in the hobbies, nor have ever sold anything. And I’m believing it’s by off shore people who don’t even speak English!

Try an ATM

Welcome! I love the PT! Then again I own a 1:1 PT Turbo Convertible in red. Your model makes me wish mine was yellow

Absolutely correct.. not a political statement, just a fact. 100-200 years ago people weren’t as mobile as today. Back as early as the 1500s it was realized that the plague spread through inter port travel. Sailors on merchant ships were bringing it home with then. The Italians decided that incoming ships would sit at anchor in the harbor for 40 days. If nobody got sick, they’d allow the ship to dock and unload. Thus, the word quarantine actually comes from the Italian word for 40.

Then shake profusely

I have a new client and spent the past week at their location.. actually since I’m on Lap Two of Tour de Pharma, it’s an old employer of mine.. I actually have a pension coming from them! Anyway, it’s a nice drive on backroads and through small towns here in PA. Old repair shop had a 49 Chevy in the lot Same place.. there’s another flat front bus behind this one. Calling card for a barbecue place! Made a mental note to try it someday as we don’t have a decent rib place! And in town.. this was just a photo waiting to happen! And an artsy shot of my company car with neon.. I saw the glow and just wanted to see what my iPhone camera would do with it!

OR a Nostalgic Racer with a fiberglass body either wrapped or painted weathering! ? Funny thing... that comment led me to build my rusty Corvette. I've had a lot of fun with that one!
