"Destoted"?? Do you mean destroyed?

[Guest Gramps-xrds]

It'd help if you posted the pic. lol

oops

How did your ex-wife destroy your collection? I ask because it's my worst fear. It's probably why I stay married and give her whatever she asks for.

:lol:

[Dr. Cranky]

Yes, "destroy" is a scary word. What happened?

Great model, BTW.

[ewaskew]

Nice truck.

As for the X I've been there.

I just had the chance to get my model's away from the house before I gave her the new's that I would be moving.

I did forget a set of high performance plug wire's under the couch,went back to get them and her girl friend was on the

couch.

I ask her to move off the couch so that I could get them.

The X told her not to move, The friend agreed with the X.

I said no problem and dumped her in the floor when I flipped the couch over and got the plug wire's.

Me and her friend bacame friends after that,go figure.

It's not this hobby.It's anything that takes attention away from them.

I just let mine know it's been here before you and it will always be no mater what. Be strong lol

And yes very nice truck !!!!

Good looking truck. No comment on ex's.

That truck looks real nice, and it makes me wanna start one! Welcome back to the hobby. Life is full of frustrations, and I have personally found that a couple of hours of model building really helps to ease them. Here's hoping that you'll enjoy a little 'you time' in the hobby.

No, he meant Destoted. Trust me, my wife has done that to a couple of mine.

Nice truck!

Nice looking truck, what wheels are they ?

That sucks that the X did that, but glad that you came out of it all and are finding time to build again.

[gray07]

Great looking truck, love the stepside trucks any year.

Man, if it's not a real word, it aughta be. Great looking truck Jim and welcome to the forum.

[surfjunke]

Welcome back to the hobby. Very nice clean build. I say your skills are still there.

Being single (never been married) does have some advantages. I could not have a girlfriend now anyway because I am a full time care taker for my 86 year old mother.

Been there , done that . This is why I started again in 1984 . Talked out of "things of a child , you lay down as an adult ." I gave myself up . I moved from Youngstown , Ohio to Angola , In. during 1990 . I only was stolen from after I moved here when I had my collection in a Storage Unit . Women should be glad to have you in the house , enjoying their company and involved in a Hobby that keeps you home with them . IMHO .

Great build , now please keep them coming ..Thanx ..
