  1. How warped is it, Les man? Sometimes when you install the windows, it straightens a lot of that out.........
  2. Is this the Police bike? It looks great.........
  3. Graffiti has so far not shown up on the mural we have here of the astronaut that's from the county I live in........... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curtis_Brown
  4. Here's a really good song by moe. The guitar solo plays out like 'Dueling Banjos'................
  5. Gar are so ornery because they have all those teeth, but no tooth brush............ (to paraphrase the waterboy's mama......... )
  6. Finished up the interior for the little Plymouth that I got in a trade here........... (Thanks, Marty! ) The tach will end up on the cowl....... The car is gonna end up a pale yellow, hopefully.......
  7. You deserve it, man....... Anybody that deals with public kids.........
  8. I might, MIGHT, have a little S10 pickup becoming available to me in exchange for some work..... I'm a house painter by trade, and the guy has three houses that need painted. I wouldn't be doing all of the work myself, just being a huge help to him with it. If I do get the little truck, I'm gonna have to go out in the country where my parents stay to learn how to drive again, as it's been over 15 years since I've driven any.......
  9. After my hamster picks out what he wants from his food, I throw the leftovers out for the birds and squirrels to have......... These two male Cardinals started having a pushing match of sorts over it. They both lit up into a tree, where bird #2 started threatening the first one by edging his beak on a branch, like he was sharpening it! I've never seen a bird 'sharpen' his beak at another bird over something........ Almost like he was saying 'I'll cut you good, esse!'
  10. I wonder how difficult it would be to print that picture on a sheet of decal paper......... Then you could size it however you wanted!
  11. They're not oversized, but would look large on a pickup....... https://www.modelroundup.com/Big-Rig-Wheel-and-Tire-Set-p/moe-1010.htm You could order a set of these and then just find a set of Pegasus tires to fit!
  12. A fried bone-in pork chop and some boiled new potatoes with lots of salt, pepper, and Real Butter!
  13. Nitro Marty is a first-class trader, guys! Marty, I'm working on that Plymouth right now.................
  14. Can you even catch a MoPar without another one?
  15. Nine Inch Nails........ I think Mr. Reznor was/is brilliant........
  16. From what I was reading about this, the nitrogen WAS pressurized inside the frame........ There was a gauge that alerted the driver when the frame lost pressure, thus telling of a stress crack or cracks from fatigue.....
  17. Most likely has the 383....... Like driving a big, powerful, cushy hallucination!
  18. Recently learned that they used to fill the Porsche 917 endurance racer frames/chassis with nitrogen so they could tell when a crack had occurred.......... Probably common knowledge to some folks, but it was new to me!
  19. Does anyone recognize THIS Tool............. member?
  20. What is it? A Polara or something?
  21. Looks kinda like something you would use to pull a cable or wire tight..........
  22. Sweaters made out of reindeer would probably be pretty itchy........... (LoL)
  23. I can usually get fair results with the Rustoleum paints, but you HAVE to have a good even coat of Their primer on! Don't trust that because the can says 2n1, that you don't need a separate primer......... This is their flat black primer with two coats of their high-gloss black. I didn't need to polish, but it might wouldn't hurt for me to..... I'm using the 'oleum on this project because the depth of the shine is about right for a vintage auto..... If I was going after a more 'showy' paint job, I would use DupliColor's paint system........
  24. That's a cool car, Anton! It does look a lot better with the chrome grille and headlight surrounds.........
