    Maybe you're one of those drivers who should stay home when the weather turns bad. ;-)

  13. A COOL STORY. (Sloppy jalopies ) sent me a PM. He wanted to send me an old diorama that he had built years ago. I wanted to pay him. But he wouldn't let me.:) But I Really didn't want to restore it. But just put it in my show case as it is. It's of modified racers from 1955 to 1959. They even have their same numbers and paint schemes. The tower is made from a pencil sharpener. The 34- 5 Windows were made from filled and drilled 3- windows. Nice job, and thanks alot Smitty.:) RON....[​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    We've got a few Garage Scenes around the house. Do you know what the tower and yellow arrow represents?[​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    Speaking of red ... I brought a Studebaker out today for a photo shoot , before shots , it's getting torn down for a rebuild to resemble the real one that I'm currently building...and I couldn't resist bringing the Corvette out for the shoot because the Studebaker is getting some of the same , sort of , type of modifications......plus the vette just looks damn cool......[​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    Well Dean after a little research I see that there's no need to repaint the truck...... I was not aware that your truck had gone yellow everything I have run across is from the early years , the red years , but I guess if you have had it as long as you have its bound to follow along with the latest trends....it's a very cool truck no matter the version.....

  26. There are two trucks! The original is still red. Unfortunately, it now lives in England. I've had the yellow one for 23 years. So, I'm happy with either color.
