I think it looks good, Dale...... I wouldn't change a thing....

WOW.................. looking good John.................... I'm lovin this.................

This is SO much FUN to be able to offer some information and details to what i KNOW will be an awesome build .....

Did you guys know the 'zipper' was invented here in Canada.................... Carl will be fine, we KNOW Zippers !

All the very best Carl, my dad went thru this in his 70's never looked back..... said his chest clicked for a while though.... you will do fine and I will be thinking of you, hang in there bud, you will do just fine.....you will be chasing the cute.......................... oh maybe you won't if Mrs. Carl is there LOL!!! Take good care, and we will talk on 'the other side'...... best wishes.............. Jeff

Now that's funny, what a great idea !

I heard they just GPS in our local snow plow trucks and graders..... the company I used to work for...... I wouldn't have ever had a problem with that, but I know a few guys had better watch out !

Well, there is a possibility, I DO LOVE Cheezes !!!! LOL!!!! Thanks pal, most interesting......

OK, I need a little advice here............ I was just reading on a Chevy Tahoe site, that a fellow just had his Tahoe stolen in the Dallas area and is rightfully pissed about it, and it sounds like there is a lot of that going on these days...... and it was a truck with 'keyless' entry and ignition, same as what I have and I'm sure some of you guys as well................... one of the guys on the site suggested getting a 'Faraday bag'............................ do any of you guys have one of these for your cell phone , key fob, lap top, or credit cards? Which one did you get, and does it work and was it expensive? I see on Amazon ( yes I will add to Jeff Beyso's fortune, he is down a couple billion due to his divorce) most are fairly reasonably priced...... from the write ups I see they work or seem to work quite well............... can you guys give me your experiences and advice, I really don't want my truck stolen................ and for the record, I think if one steels a car or has stolen a car, it should be a hanging offense no questions asked, as like in the old days, when a guy stole a horse...... my Tahoe is my 21st century horse................. so I hope you guys can fill me in here..................

A 63 coupe is on my list too......

Yeah, Tony, I agree........................ just a bunch of good old boys (heavy on the 'old'?? ) sittin around shootin the S**T with a few dozen cold ones ( Brewskis) and some good BBQ wings and ribs !! Good call, and that is why I for one hang around here like a bad smell.................

Like all the guys have said, this is a very cool place to hang out, all friends here... I build cars and large trucks as well, I am looking forward to learning some of your techniques, as I'm sure it will help me do much better...... welcome aboard... Jeff

It's ALL in the details............. looking good Dennis....

DON'T look down Cadet............... I picked up ALL the quarters an hour ago ! ...................... a quote from an old RCAF DI I had...... ah, the good old days!!

Welcome aboard Curly............. Harv is right there are some real good folks here that know lots and are most willing to help out.... Jeff

Ernie.................... Like Carl, I can't add much that hasn't already been said by the other guys............... just know, we are here for you, if you need to chat or or let loose, you know where we are....... do what ever makes you feel good, give Joy some extra hugs, and talk to her............. she of all of us understands...... do something different together if you can and want to..... go into the mountains for a few days and camp out or something on your list of cool things you never had time for before....... just know we love ya man and we are here...... when ever you want us. Jeff

I'm here to visit Carl................... hows it going today? Typical crappy hospital food too??

Which one John, and on any particular op??

Geez, Carl.................... glad all is well, and you are in probably the BEST place in the world for treatments...... I had one of those about 14 years ago, had to go through all the BS with stress tests etc, but have been taking my meds as prescribed, rarely miss, I know it when I do though.. LOL, but have not looked back, also keep in mind that the treatments and meds and all the tech is getting better and better every day, I think you are in good hands, and remember RED WINE is good for your heart so Red Wine is ( in my book ) classed as 'medicine'....... good luck, I know you will do just fine................ please keep us posted............... I KNOW what you are going through... all will be well.... cheers buddy Jeff

EXACTLY !

Rog, that is VERY cool, I REALLY hope for a WIP on the Hornets, and would love to see inside the box of the Spad....... I am so envious.....

Yeah, I sure thought so......he wants NO money for it, just a gift.... my 97 year old dad will be surprised to see it for sure....

So this will be my first post on this thread... as I have purchased stuff in the past and not thought it was really worth talking about, model stuff that probably isn't all that interesting............................... BUT.......................... today was a bit different...............there is a little bit of a back story here and I will try to make it short..... Cathy and I were on a 'camping' trip through Alberta about 12 years ago or so....maybe longer..... you know how memory serves, but , I digress... anyway, we went into a MacDonald's restaurant in Innisfail Alberta, and on the wall was the most awesome art print I have seen as it was a very close subject to me, personally. It was a print of some RCAF Transport aircraft from the squadron my dad was a founding member when it was formed in India in 1944.... 435 "Chinthe"..... the print was really cool, and I found out later that it was a print of a cover for a book about the squadron...... I HAD to try and find a copy for my collection.... I searched and searched, so much so I even contacted the Commanding Officer at the time from 435 squadron in Winnipeg Manitoba, to no avail................... the search continued , and continued, and continued...... I tried searching for the artist or author of the book..... and lo and behold about a year ago I found the author, he was a member of the squadron and wroth the book, now LONG out of print..... when I contacted him he was still flying with Air Canada, so contact was rather hit and miss, mostly miss........ he said he 'might' have a copy of the cover of the book and if he could dig it up he would send it to me...... I was so excited................................. then nothing for over a year....... not disappointed, but understanding that the man is busy, and may certainly have forgotten......................................... totally understandable................................... so TODAY, i go to the mail box and there is a package for me................... I open it and there it is....... a brand new perfect copy of the book 3 extra book covers with the print I can frame, and a card saying for me to enjoy the book.............................. there are some GENUINELY considerate and most GENEROUS people still living in this turbulent world................. my day has been truly made !!
