  1. A suggestion for you... add a black wash to the wheels, and the spokes will look a lot more realistic. PS: Your English is fine,
  2. I agree. Talent is innate; you can't teach or learn talent. Some people are born with artistic talent, or musical talent. They weren't taught it, it's "in" them. But you can teach and/or learn a skill. A person with musical talent can maximize that talent by practicing... by learning skills to make themselves a better musician. But a person with absolutely no musical talent whatsoever can still learn to play a piano, for example, by learning skills. He will never be a concert pianist, but he can learn to pound out a song or two. Talent is what we're born with, skill is how we can improve on that talent.
  3. Then there's the even lesser known Harley Davidson foray into automobiles...
  4. Remember... don't post any hints or answers here. PM me with year, make, and model. The answer: 2010 Gillet Vertigo .5 Spirit
  5. Carole King, It's Too Late.
  6. I don't know if this would have been considered a "full size" Buick back in the day, but this 1911 Buick 14B is the only model Buick I've ever built...
  7. It has nothing to do with being an idiot. The majority of people just aren't into cars. To most people, that car is a worthless piece of junk. Only a very small minority of the population sees it as something worth saving. Does that make people who are not into old cars "idiots?" Of course not. We all have different interests. What if you saw that your neighbor put an old "Speed Queen" wringer-style clothes washer out to the curb to be picked up by the garbage man? Well, most people wouldn't give it a second thought. They would see an old, useless, worthless piece of junk. But to a person who actually collects old washing machines, he would see a treasure! But the fact is, most people don't collect old washing machines and don't assign any worth or value to them. Know what I mean?
  8. A kit car is a real car. It runs, you can drive it. It woks. Not really the car it looks like, but a real car nonetheless.
  9. Why did the cross-eyed teacher get fired? She couldn’t control her pupils... Did you hear about the new restaurant on the moon? Great food but no atmosphere! What do you call a boomerang that doesn't work? A stick. I told my friend, “I broke my leg in two places!” My friend said, “Quit going to those places” Teacher: Susie, if your mother has 20 dollars and you borrow 10, how much will your mom have?
 Susie: 20 dollars.
 Teacher: Sorry, you don't know your math.
 Susie: Sorry, you don’t know my mom. A man shows up for his doctor's appointment with a piece of celery in each ear and a carrot in each of his nostrils. He says to the doctor, "Doc, I'm not feeling well." The doctor replies," Maybe you're not eating right." Did you know that five out of every three people have trouble with fractions? Why did the math book go to see a physiciatrist? It had a lot of problems.
  10. Correct and correct!
  11. "Well, I heard the crowd singin' out of tune as they sat and sang Auld Lang Syne by the light of the moon"...
  12. They'll be big buck collectibles one day.
  13. "(You're) still so young to travel so far... old enough to know who you are. Wise enough to carry the scars without any blame; there's no one to blame"...
  14. "Well you wake up in the morning, you hear the work bell ring. And they march you to the table to see the same old thing. Ain't no food upon the table and no pork up in the pan. But you better not complain boy; you'll get in trouble with the man."
  15. "We'll take it nice and easy and use my simple plan. You'll be my lovin' woman, I'll be your lovin' man"...
  16. This is the oldest model I could find. Twiggy is 65...
  17. Art, I just looked through the WIP. Somehow I totally missed it until now. Nice work! Looking forward to seeing it "Under glass!"
  18. Gotta love the Rally wheels!
  19. Now that's a Cadillac.
  20. Don't forget to post photos for us!
