For the last couple of years I've searched the world over for a streamliner in 1/43 scale- but no luck. :cry:

Andre, which storm are you thinking of?

Any other hobos managing to find Labatt 50?

No Labatt's, but enjoying some Flying Dog IPA. Andre ought to have that brew available down his way. :wink:

Andre, I only mean there are many kinds of storms: emotional, physical, psychological, sexual. financial, three-rail scale, and of course natural. We did have some rain and wind but nothing unusual.

Is "alley" a marble reference?

Jon, nice boulevard blaster!

Image

You stuck on shovels, buddy? :wink:
That whole engine looks like S&S. Do they make a shovel long-block?
Lots of other goodies. Love the turn-outs. Those rear brakes look serious, too.
I'm having trouble spotting the turn-signals. I wonder where they're hidden, unless they're under the rear lamp and out of sight. I've seen some tucked in the ends of the swing-arms.
Got an oil cooler too. Come in handy, the way Jon goes bombing around. :D

But no rear seat? Hell, sometimes I like to ride with the redhead's legs wrapped around me! :wink:

Pete, The bidding ain't over yet, so's I may not be the lucky owner. But that's the style I'm after. She's a beauty, no doubt!! Yeah, I'm a "Shovel Nut"!!! Maybe my age is showing but I love the "old school' look.
Gorgeous Fall night down South! Perfect for our Almost-Annual-All-Saints-Day-Bonfire!!!!! Grab a beer and snuggle up!!(just not next to me.) :wink:

Jon, that's one inspired photograph. Beautiful!

I'll have some bitchin' bonfires myself, once there's some snow on the ground, when I burn several huge piles of multiflora-rose bushes. Send those bastards to HELL, I will!

Been working on a pole-shed, someplace to put the tractor, wagon, brush-hog, lawnmowers, bicycles, and whatever.
And finally reclaim my garage.

Above and below, my "help" giving the 'Hev-sign'.

Having this kind of "help" actually slows me down by a factor of 2, but pays me dividends in other ways.

Today, the steel roof went on, and half of the back. Hope to finish the back and sides tomorrow before work.

Pete, did you dig out each individual root? If not, they'll be proud to go to hell 'cause multiflora rose is the Devil in disguise. And, they'll be back again.

Bet you laid some DNA just cuttin' that stuff! An old rabbit hunter like me would know. :lol:


Man, what a bunch of shit stirrin' over on the 3 rail forum. I think they need another 10 or 15 post-war threads. I'm so sick of readin' that term I'm ready to puke.
