  1. Gregg deleted the Gregg threads because they are a bunch of nothing. He's still here, nothing has changed. That whole "what happened to Gregg" thing is a big stir about nothing.
  2. Which ones are you talking about?
  3. A lot of "deleted" threads aren't deleted at all... just moved to where they should have been posted in the first place.
  4. That's positively un-American! PS: I agree with the "no debt" philosophy.
  5. good line...
  6. The problem isn't being a gearhead or adrenaline junkie... the problem starts when you being a gearhead and/or adrenaline junkie impacts others who want no part of it, or are forced to breathe that stuff just so you can get your kicks.
  7. That's what living in SoCal gets you!
  8. What would you do with 24 Passats? Start your own taxi fleet?
  9. That's painting with a pretty broad brush, isn't it? Or even a roller! If you're building a model kit that has the correct scale ground clearance, lowering it because it "looks better" that way to you is a subjective thing, not a problem with the kit's accuracy. I mean, that's like saying pretty much any model looks better painted metalflake red. Or any model looks better with big aftermarket wheels. All subjective, nothing to do with the kit's basic accuracy... assuming it is accurate.
  10. This week's answer is 1929-33 Majestic. http://thevintagent.blogspot.com/2008/03/majestic-new-motorcycle.html Who got it right: wisdonm sjordan2 mr chips MikeMc matthijsgrit GeeBee otherunicorn Johnag4004 carsntrucks4you mr moto Don W 62rebel jaymcminn
  11. A human being needs room to get their fingers around the handle, regardless of the tension needed to pull it up or how narrow the tunnel is. You still have to be able to grab the handle. In your model, how do you propose a person would pull up the handle? Wrap a loop of wire around the handle and pull up?
  12. Or as Ralph Kramden would say... hamana hamana hamana hamana.....
  13. I hear ya! I don't get that "coaling" thing either. As it is, I spend more than enough $$$ gassing up my Mustang. I can't imagine spending even more $$$ just so you can waste fuel!
  14. When I was a kid we got out in mid June, and back the Monday after Labor Day (early September).
  15. Did you say hi to Wayne and Garth?
  16. That doesn't work in the real world. You need a lot more clearance than that. At the very least you'd need a cutout on the right side about 1.5-2 inches wide or more, to be able to curl your fingers around the handle.
  17. I pick B.
  18. Amazing work. Almost seems to be silly to nit pick, but the driver is going to need very skinny fingers to grab that parking brake handle!
  19. They're more a marketing machine than either a band or a show!
  20. Very nice foil work on those window moldings.
  21. I like to see that bottle of "idea juice"...
  22. Not so fast! He's still alive!
