    I have never contributed before on this thread but I love Fridays beacause of this thread. You all have some amazing talent. I had to pull pretty deep to find anything worthy of sharing, this isn't as cool as your creations but I hope you don't mind.

    I am not a fan of fake patina but this sign was wiped out when I got it, paint on galvanized steel and heavily damaged/weathered. I could barely make a template of the lettering and design (and yes, that is how alinement was spelled, I guess paint brushes didn't have spell check). I pounded out the severest dents, primered and painted it base coat yellow and then laid the black and red lettering by hand. Then I went over it with 1000 wet sand paper where the dents and damage still were evident and cleared it with Omni using a dulling agent. I did this about 7 years ago I guess.

    That is all I have to contribute, I hope it is ok. But now that I have paid my dues to the art gods, I will give Larry another shout out, Feel better soon!

    This must be the one,eh? owned by a old school kind of guy who bought it with a 360 Thermobogger,put a 383 with 2 4s in it a long time ago. Interesting guy, he used to race a olds with a J2, he just put 3 inch mandrel bent tubes on this Volare. He once offered me a sheetmetal intake that allowed him to run TWO autolite inline carbs on a 440 Roadrunner. He couldn't get traction with it, I couldn't find 500 bucks to buy it in the late 70s when he sold it. And the Volare with the stripe package...must be stronger than the 80s Volare police car he had. He put a 400 in that tweaked it would run low 11s looking like your average 4 door Volare sedan. Some people are just good at being sneaky.

    Larry, we don't "know" each other other than here for a bunch of years, but I sincerely wish all the best in whatever you're trying to get through. US ol' guys gotta stick together.
    Get well Bud….. Get well.
