Happy day after Thanksgiving Harry! I thought I'd let you sleep it off today, so I'm kinda late. But one thing Harry, IS IT a Volvo? I din't know they made a hot rod. Was it built for an exercise, or can some bucks up dude actually buy it? Either way, I LIKESES it!

ART, I got it! The Syncromesh tranny! I was too turkeyed out last nite, but I WAS gonna say that!( YEAH RIGHT!) Geeze Art not only are/were you one of the BEST resin casters out there, but Dang dude, you are one SMART /interesting Guy! Too bad you couldn't think of any tough questions! This IS a fun thread!

And he ain't jokin either!

Funny you should mention Fleetwood. I worked at Fleetwood Fisher body for the first 11 years with GM!Ya know that place had a warning on one wall in the body shop that warned employees to be ware of the heat from the ovens, and the ovens had been gone for 50 years! They used to build Curtiss Bi planes there for WWI! Hadn't bothered to paint the place since then! But you still got me on your question.Anybody else gotta idea?

All steel bodies and Insulation?I'm clutchin at straws here ART! Another hint maybe?

Wow Art, you makin me even Crazier than I ALREADY am! Any body able to answer these questions? A curious Cadillac builder NEEDS to know! I gotta give up Art, you sure got me!

Bein a Caddy, could it have been power glass an Cruise Control? ALL my Cadillacs have had that.

Art, could it be A/C? I know I really appericiate it!

Clay, Last year there was a guy out in Bloomfeild Hills Mich. who did the same thing on his street. It only took 1 nite for the BHPD to shut him down for "Creating Havoc" on a residential street. He took it to court, an they let him fire it up again, but for only 4 hours a nite, to keep the siteseers to a minimum. I think I'd hafta agree with Scott though, if I had something like that across the street from me, It'd probly make me even CRAZIER than I already am! Betcha he ain't the most well liked neighbor on his block! Glad you an Ani liked it!

Mark, you'll probly hafta get in line BEHIND Gregg, But DON'T mess him up TOO bad, caz I need my Sunday nite FIX from him! NO broken fingers! OK? ( Don't worry Harry, I won't let anyone hurt you!)

electric starter? I remember at work they had a big ol poster of Cadillac "firsts" an an electric starter was one of them.

Art, this is just a shot inna dark, but, was it because if it broke down, you could fix it with a stove bolt?

Todd, THANK YOU,THANK YOU,THANK YOU!!!! NOW maybe I can give it a shot! Doubt if it'll come out nice as yours, but at least now I can TRY! Your OK in my book Buddy!

Welcome Marty, Youv'e just signed on with the BEST forum in ALL of modeldom! You'll find we ALL have alot to be thankful for, This forum, for example! And ALL the cool guys who live here. Your really gonna like it here, so just sit back, let your Turkey digest, and ENJOY!!!

Bimmer, if I'm not mistaken that kit is 10/15 years old. I don't know if Hasegawa still even pops it. It was in 60's set that included a 66 Impala(which was really a 65) a 66 Buick I think, an a 66 sumpthin else.I liked it but never got it caz it's 24th scale, an I'm a bigot! wish I had gotten it now!!! Again, it IS a BEAUTIFUL build!

WoW Nick, that was cool! where was it held? looks like it would be fun!

WoW Mark, Thanks! That's VERY kind of you to say. I REALLY like this forum. Now that I've ACTUALLY met an had the chance to talk to some of the other guys, Yeah, I feel like we ARE a big family.I come from a big family, so I feel QUITE at home here.

Tonio, It REAL nice to see some of your work again! I NEVER get tired of seein em! This one's lookin GOOD TOO, as usual!

Yeppers! I just GOTTA agree with that! We got LOTS to be thankful for. We got our hobby,We got each other, we got this Forum, We got Gregg ( without whom we wouldn't even HAVE this forum) and we STILL got our freedom! Thanks to ALL you guys for beein such good frends to a guy who you's don't EVEN KNOW! I personally have ALOT to be thankful for, INCLUDING YOU GUYS! PLease MY FREINDS, have a GREAT, SAFE Thanksgiving! May God Bless US ALL!!!

ok, I guess I might be 3rd in line to say welcome! Yeah, try Jack over at "Model Roundup"He's a REALLY nice guy and he'll give ya a deal once he gets to know ya!( At least he does me) I prefer to deal with him exclusively as he is such a GOOD vendor! NEVER have had any trouble with Jack, an IF there's a problem, He'll make it right! Good man in my book.

Isn't the VW golf pickup sportin a Water cooler/air con? We called em swamp coolers, but I don't know what their real names are. And I'm paintin the kitchen, Harry, THATS THE ONLY reason my fat lil butt is still up!It's 11:41 Deeetroit time!

901 was the original designated name for the 911 Porsche, Fair Lane was the road on which Henry Fords Ancesteral home in Ireland was located.At least I think it was Ireland.

Ed's Idea sounds good to me, Bro. I would go with it. But thats just me,caz you the one whats gotta like it.

OOOOO, nice Irv! This one'll be cool! Is that a Modelhaus resin kit/conversion? This'll be nice to see done, caz it looks GOOD! so far!

GREAT JOB, K-Dog. We George's gotta stick together, so I'm in total agreement with him! 2 thumbs up, AND a SNAP!!!
