CAR THREAD ( ..wheeee) :)

This looks like a journey to the past. Thank You for sharing Ernie. That last one totally feels like 182HP car

Canopy arrived yesterday.

New winter project today. Just a case of touch ups and reassembly. A guy worked on this 20 years, but lost all interest 2 years ago.  Now he’s gonna go buy a Tiger Moth with the money he just got. 
Should be a simple 1:1 kit build  🤣  Just not sure of the color scheme  he used 56 Fiesta Red instead of Black and Coral Mist . Bottom pic for reference

This car is screaming for black, not pink or red, BLACK

Now just needs some desert tan and some chocolate chips...   and some carelessly applied USMC stencils...  then it will look really tough.

Anyway...   not to change the topic...

Started out the day doing some work in the F-16A but around lunch time I said no more.  
 

I cranked up the old ‘66, found the new plate, sticker and registration and installed them and went for a ride.   I’ve never heat cycled the ring and pinion all the way since installing them almost 2 years ago.  Went on about a 5 mile ride.

Yea, that’s garage dust I’m trying to see through…

Got it home and realized I was driving on tires that only had 14 psi in them. Oops!  Aired them up and gave her a bath. 
 

In the morning I’ll go on another drive for a good heat cycle again.  Might stretch it out a little further though.  I’ve got to either drive it or sell it. Tired of seeing it sitting in the garage all the time.

I have been remiss in my duties...

Very nice, that mustang too.

[ScottsGT]

What Mustang?

I Owned one Ford in my entire life.  A 1976 Maverick 4-door with a 200CI motor and three on the tree.  The most dependable car I ever owned, really.  Rust ate the body.
