Nonsense is the stock-in-trade of most of mainstream and social media.

Photos?

Please...if you're going to bag your dog exhaust, TAKE THE BAGS AWAY and don't just leave 'em on the trail for SOMEBODY ELSE TO REMOVE.

Kite building and flying is fun, and can teach many things

World problems are universally caused by stupidity, but most folks can't see the forest for the trees.

Soon there won't be anybody left who can tell time on those funny old round geezer clocks.

Beautiful truck.

Yup. Easy to cut into special shapes too, like curves, or V-shapes for making a peak.

Bone density decreases with age if you don't get enough calcium and do weight-bearing exercise; use it or lose it..

Life goes by too quickly; make every minute count.

Attention to detail is important in every creative endeavor.

Yup. I'll see a set of wheels...or something, anything...they trigger an idea, and I'm off on a buying spree again. I share your malady...though I've decided to begin offloading some of the trick real-car stuff I'll probably never get to, to help finance the cars I want most to build.

"Taken for granted" is what many of us have done for far too long, concerning the idea that reasonable and competent people were running things.

By hook or by crook, we will.

Infomercials provide gainful employment for D-list, past-it celebs nobody's heard of in 30 years,

One geezer (and old model railroader) to another...welcome back. Congrats on your enduring marriage, too.

Especially if the real object of going electric is to "save the planet" by reducing energy and material use all through a vehicle's life-cycle, and not just posturing with virtue-signaling, ignorant hypocrisy? This little car is perfectly adequate for what most people do with their cars most of the time...carrying one butt from point A to point B, on short trips (like to work, or the store, or general errand-running, etc.) Leave your energy-guzzling heavy pickup or 4+ passenger car parked when you don't need its much larger carrying capacity, which is most of the time. EDIT: Take me, for example. I often need a truck in my daily life, but not every day. Driving a full-size pickup for daily transportation is, frankly, wasteful. I'll be the first to admit it (and that goes for gas OR electric). This little car would serve me perfectly on most days I don't need a truck, but just need to get myself around. Relegating my petro-burning dinosaur to occasional use when I actually need it would have nowhere near the negative environmental impact of replacing it with a 6000 pound electric truck, and continuing to use it for daily transport.

Uses that are new, for an old invention, can sometimes be patented.

Aloof rearranged is a fool.

Exactly what I was going to suggest. And the real '34 had separate lights, not on a crossbar. What's the issue with the running boards? I thought the ZZ Top car had black ribbed ones, like stock. There are several versions of the kit with louvered hood sides. EDIT: Or the AMT '34 5-window louvered hood sides can be reworked by adding a little material fairly easily, too. I just pulled the kits to check.

"Thinks critically" can't be said of many people.

Small tiny itsy-bitsy intellects are running things, which is why everything's going off the rails.

Algorythyms...hmmmm...think I'll sit this one out

Real nice save. One of my favorite things to do in this hobby is rework somebody's bodged mess into a decent model. I really like what you've done here, and appreciate the reminder about the Q&D Silly Putty/Bondic parts replication trick.
