  1. Weevils usually live in cotton bolls, and are thusly named........
  2. Fast driving should be reserved for closed courses..........
  3. That's super cool what you're doing for your son and his friends............ I'm sure the cars appreciate it, too! Cool projects!
  4. These are all really good suggestions and ideas, Guys............. Espo, I wanted to show you the seats from the last Starliner that I built........ They're pearl white with gold ship rigging for piping. Your interior looks really good! I'm hoping with this latest kit I can go more pro-tour than the 'mild custom' of the first one.......
  5. Event Horizons are the outer rims of Black Holes where time and space begin to warp............
  6. Hey, Les my man....... What material could I use for the door cards? How would I make things symmetrical? Something I could either mold or carve...........
  7. Same body style my Dad and I had as a project when I was a teen.............. Ours was factory black with a silverish interior. V8 and 3-on-the-tree. We put a 351 from a '68 Galaxie with an automatic into the Fairlane. One of those 'wish I still had' stories......
  8. Guys, I recently ordered the '60 Starliner kit and would like to put a custom interior in it. The type of inside I would like for it to have is the pro-touring style sculpted interior...... Are there many, if any, kits with sculpted door panels and matching seats? or Is this something I would need to make myself? Also, how many of you have scratch made your own interior? If you have, please post some pics! Reference pics would be nice, too............ Thanks, Fellas.......
  9. Be mindful of how much guff you take from people...... you're letting them know how they can treat you.
  10. Anymore turkey left?
  11. I kinda mentioned to my Mom that the little lantern that I have really uses up batteries, and she purchased this rechargeable flash light for me........ It has a forward lamp and one on the side that both have two briteness levels. Also it has a pulsing setting in both white and red, like a distress signal. Really gonna come in handy walking the doggo on these cold nights to come! It really is a nice light..............
  12. This kit has pretty much that exact setup......... The kit can be built two ways, so you'll still be able to build it. https://www.modelroundup.com/1968-Dodge-Dart-Hemi-p/rmx-4217.htm
  13. Called Blondie on the telephone, and would you believe she left me hangin'?
  14. Yea, he could be treating those cars a little better......... When I was a kid, from about 8 to about 12 years old, I would make Dad drive me around the back roads of the county we live in just to check out the old cars....... Most folks didn't mind!
  15. It could have a lot to do with the generation T-bird that you might would be dealing with....... Some of the favorite body style 'birds among their owners would be, like, the 'baby' Birds, (the first three years) or the Rocket birds ('61-'63)..... My favorite of the T-birds is probably the least liked, as I like the '80s aero coupes the best...........
  16. I've had as real cars a Fox platform Mustang and a Thunderbird....... The Mustang was a '91. It had shaved heads, a shift kit, Flowmasters (of course....) and 3.73 gears. Black with a red interior, chrome wheels and a Saleen-type spoiler..... It was affectionately known as the Muscle-tang amongst my friends at the time......... They were both really good cars, even though the 'stang took a beating from it's previous owner....... The Thunderbird was my highschool ride, the 'stang I had at 19. If I had the two now, the Tbird would definitely have the V8 swapped in!
  17. Bill, aren't you supposed to eat some kind of greens, too? Prosperity I think.........
  18. Horsepower is how hard you hit the wall, torque is how far you carry it with you...........
  19. Bill, there's an old saying........ 'If she doesn't find you handsome, she should at least find you handy'......
  20. 'Sideways' is a pretty good movie, it stars Thomas H Church from the show Wings......
  21. Cats of the domestic type are all kind of wild still, as they've never really been domesticated.......
  22. Those are sharp builds, Johnny! I like the Plymouth below the S+H Torino best...........
  23. This one is still active..........
  24. 'Them' was a band that had as a member the great Van Morrison.........
  25. Best friend you'll ever have, your dog!
