    Pretty nice day today so I ran everything out of the garage and wiped up oil spots, knocked down cobwebs and straightened up in general. Had a bunch of people stop for the "car show" lol ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1462047486.009364.jpg ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1462047508.191658.jpg ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1462047554.140902.jpg ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1462047572.591281.jpg ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1462047599.424942.jpg ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1462047618.724785.jpg

    Revell the model car company had it built in 1971 to promote their line of deals wheels model kits. it has a fiberglass body hinged like a funny car and runs and drives, but it is not exactly street legal

    Some of your neighbors probably think you have a 60s GM custom/ show car addiction? But they could be wrong, hahahahahaha

    How big is that garage?
     
  10. This comes to mind:

    Except in your case, do a voice over.
    "Ah, whose cars are out in front?"
    "Mine... the cars I always wanted and now I have them."
    "I rule!"

    I'll say the same thing as last year.

    Though, I think time is running out!

    I think you need to hire me to just pull all the cars in and out so you can clean up the oil spots and cobwebs! Joe

    That must get the kids in the neighborhood excited when you put all your big hot wheels outside. Quite a sight to behold.

  15. How deep is that garage? Do you stack all that inventory on lifts?

    I've been to Moriarity's......
    That ONE found oil drip was the size of your pinky finger nail that probably dripped into a sterling silver tea server tray ;) and the cob web :eek: in the corner was one Mark found with a magnify glass.

    Cool Dude - Cool shit. :cool:
    No oil drips, dirt, dust or cob webs anywhere.

    It's a tool and die maker trait.....
     
  19. Is the green car a recent addition? I don't remember seeing it in the past. HRP

    I'd stop if I saw all those parked in somebody's front yard too.

  24. I don't know how I missed it but I went back and found your thread about the acquisition of the famous custom.

    I thought it might be a custom from the early 60's but couldn't remember the builder/owner.

    Congratulations,albeit late. HRP
