Do you know what this unrestored machine would sell for? I am just gonna clean it up. Just curious I would never sell it. That maybe antique dust on it !! Mike

My Grand Mother was the last one to touch those pins !!!

Welcome back Tulio Mike

As of 2/18/22 I am RETIRED !!!!!!. Plans? I got lots of them. I am in perfect health so that is a wonderful thing. I think that good drugs, Heavy Metal music, and BAD girls (good girls are no fun) are why I am in good health. LOL I have not posted many of my builds because I didn't take the time to photograph them. Now I can set a side one day a week just to photograph. Get my bicycle tuned up and enjoy the rest of my life. So now I am in The Old Geezer Club and looking forward to be more active in this wonderfull community. Thanks Mike

We also watched Bosch . Good Stuff. I know that there is the Lincoln Lawyer movie. I was hoping that Bosch and Mickey Haller would team up for an episode.

The Who. Thier very first Chicago concert at The Chicago Stadium. The whole mezzanine was shaking. ,rocking and rolling. I think tickets were no more than $20.00 Mike

Reacher started streaming on Amazon over the weekend. It is very good and worth the long wait. They got it right this time. Lee Child fans are gonna love it. I like that on Amazon I can watch all the episodes at once and not wait a week for another new one. Mike

You belong here. For me this all 0's and 1's. Neutrons, electrons and protons. A touch of a button and all that is left is Cosmic Debris. Mike

You gotta pay attention to dimensions . Some are small and used to sample colors

What is your opinion of the bare metal Cobras ?

I have seen a lot of guys ask "I have screwed up my paint job" "Now what do I do?" IMO these Speed Shapes are the best to practice and experiment on. Better to screw one of these up than a body that you have painstakingly working on. I got a bunch off of Amazon $2.00- $3.00 a piece. I have only seen them in black and white. Mike '\

These Speed Shapes are the best to practice on. I have only seen black and white ones They are as big as a model car. I got a bunch of them from Amazon.

I ran across this today. These would be great for dioramas or photo reduced and used for decals Nostaligic Racing Decals (nostalgicracingdecals.com)

As car guys we really need thank the people who had foresight to keep such cars. Mike

We watched No Time to Die 007 James Bond last night. Excellent !! The Aston Martin DB5 stole the show.

I think Scott Brick is a great . For me Dick Hill is Reacher Dick Hill even narrated one of Janet Evanovich novels. George Guidall is another one I like. He did a fantastic job on Vince Flynns {rip} books. The Mitch Rapp novels are a great read. Mike

I also listen to audio books. I was so upset when Dick Hill retired. Scott Brick is no Reacher!!

Dwight There is a slot car track in Rockford ? I have been to Logan Ave 1 time to check it out. I am going to retire January 1st and I want to get back into slot car racing. I just wanted to connect with someone who races there. Are there any Slot Car forums. I know it is lame and you heard this thousands of times You are named after 2 Illinois towns ? Thanks Mike

Does anyone race at Logan Ave Slot Car Raceway ? Mike
