  1. Got this on the bay . I needed it to replace the one like this I used to make the VW powered Cobra I posted a few days ago .
  2. Thanks Steve and Gene !
  3. Landing at Sky Harbor ? About 30 min. from my house. Been there many times. Prescott is about a 2 hour drive from the airport more of less and the old town there is nice. The building from Back to the Future is there . Have family there. How long will your trip be ?
  4. As much as I love Cobra's I could not have one of those.
  5. I like that rod made with a Pontiac Tempest ( I think ) ?
  6. Looks real good Vince. Perhaps a little weathering on the canvas ????
  7. Thank you guys. I had no idea that someone made "real ones" . That's just not right ! Hey Jim, I quit building every week it seems. I will always build Cobra's. Being retired I find I do need something to do besides doing stuff around the house.
  8. Wasn't there a kit to turn a 90's Thunderbird into a 49 or 50 Ford ? I think it had a front and rear clip ???????????
  9. Nice looking model.
  10. Thanks guys. Eric, if it made you smile that's great. I am always trying to think of different ways to build a Cobra for my collection, silly or not. How many ways can I build a Cobra ???
  11. Thanks a lot guys, you are too kind.
  12. I don't know Tom, I'm guessing you didn't have to pay to go to your meeting.
  13. Can't say i didn't warn you. Used a built Manx kit I had and just made pan longer.
  14. OK , as most of you know I like Cobra's . I do have a collection but I am always trying to build one different than the normal red or blue ,etc . I have built a few that are not the norm . I came up with this idea so I went ahead with it . Remember I did not say it was a good idea . In fact to be honest I think I had a moment of stupidity . I decided since we are all friends here I would post it anyway . Look at your own risk ! You have been warned ! Just for fun .
  15. Hey Jim. I went to Sedona last year. Had a great time. We liked the open bus (trolly ) tour which was nice. Pointed out many rocks that looked like Snoopy for example. We ( wife and I ) were on the last tour of the day and the only people on the bus ! The driver was great very informative. The church in the rocks was nice to visit. Also the Jeep tours are fun. I think we were on the Pink Jeep Tours one. I would email for free information packet. Nice little town to walk around in. Good places to eat. We only stayed about a day and a half and can not remember the motel we stayed in. You mentioned going to Surprise. I have a sister and also a BIL ( not a married couple, two different homes ) and while it is a nice town I can't really give you any reason to go there. If you have friends or are looking to relocate there that's a different story. I was just there yesterday as a matter of fact. You could go visit the lake. Lake Pleasant it's called. Been going there every couple of weeks for 7 years or so. Perhaps someone who lives there knows some places I am unaware of. I also hiked in the White Tank Mountains. Not sure that is Surprise but if not it is fairly close. As I said its a nice clean town that has a ton of shopping and many, many place to eat. If you go have a great time ! There is also a nice zoo off of the 303 not far from Surprise. You would also pass a zoo most likely going from Sedona to Surprise. Can't recall the name but we stopped there also. They have a nice zip line at that one but it was closed when we were there.
  16. Saw that movie a couple weeks ago and posted about it here. I agree with what you said, Movie was too long and boring and the music ( if you can even call it that ) sucked. It was very loud but would have still been bad even at a lower volume. Just one mans opinion.
  17. Nice job on all of them Bob. Never seen those kits look any better.
  18. Today my sister and brother in law took my wife and I to a birthday lunch for my wife. We went to Cracker Barrel in Surprise. We did get a surprise in that we were informed that some unknown person picked up the tab for our table. We were told the people had left but that the man was a Vet and had noticed my BIL who was wearing one of his Marine Devil Dog hats. A stranger picked up our bill which I guess would had been about 60 bucks. We all felt bad that whoever did that was gone and we could not thank him. What a guy this must have been. We were very grateful and we agreed we will need to do the same thing in the future for someone.
  19. Very well done.
  20. I agree, good looking Jeep.
  21. Nice room. Lots of natural light.
  22. I like the gasser idea !
  23. That scooter is clean and cool !
