Very Nice! :-)

...Most recent were the ones "Guyman" did last year: http://californiaspecial.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9703&highlight=t-shirts Jon, I wish you were still doing the polos. I wear mine at every important event! I don't produce the T's anymore, but would be happy to help with some designs...

...Interesting Mike. Either a plant staging area of sorts, or a more recent photo of Neil's hangar after placing a large order with Ron ;-)

...I've had good experiences with these guys... http://www.intercitylines.com/

Rob, in that context and era, anything with a propeller was a "flying coffin". I won't bore the gang further with the huge losses in all theaters of the Big One, or the courage of our greatest generation in pulling us out of desperation into victory on all fronts. But for the stories and...

...Naw, you're thinking of the TBD Devastator, the TBM's predecessor... The TBMs were a lot more stout. 'Flew well into the 1950s for the Navy then as tankers / sprayers up until a couple of years ago. Around 50 are still flyable today. Grass Valley nested scores of them during the 1960s.

...Grumman TBM-3 Avenger, Rob. Star of the Battle of Midway :-)

...Yeah, I've had that happen a couple of times. Overhaul the entire "electrical" in a parking lot until there was nothing left to change, then Dayam! I carry spare condensers now...

...Well, it's that time of year again when I put away the cars & get busy with planes. Not totally off-topic with "Mustangs" though. Rather six of the legendary P-51 types are scheduled to arrive here in Grass Valley for our show (and my 14th year as director :-) Here's the line up...

...May drop by if time permits, but I have nothing MCA would care to see...

...First person who sees it will grab it Marty I'm sure! I'm downsizing myself otherwise I'd be in touch!..

Hear tell that's a BAAD neighborhood! I'd worry about it getting "Robbed"!

...It can be an issue when a car is covered on an open cross-country transport, otherwise no big deal with reasonable care...

Happy Birthday Steve!

...I thought I read as a matter of policy that Ford deliberately avoided convertible and fastback CSs so as to not compete with Shelby models. That's not to say a dealer wouldn't do it, but likely very few as the option was not a hot seller...

...Indeed and thanks Joe & everyone. Y'all know where he got started, but he did the rest on his own :-) My problem now is I have to schedule and pay a premium for detailing!

... That's very nice Doug! Thank you! Funny, but long before I ever imagined having an adventure with this plane, she was a regular visitor to my hometown airport fighting the war on forest fires. Here she is (same B-17) at Grass Valley around 1971 :-)

...Karen & Ralph, That's precisely what I meant when I said "our boy". He's as much a product of your generosity and influence as anything I have done with him. I doubt something as this would've materialized without the enthusiastic knowledge and gatherings we've enjoyed here over the past...

Now playing at Jay Leno's Garage! I couldn't be more proud of our boy. Tell us what you think :-) http://www.jaylenosgarage.com/video/detail-your-car-with-steam/1432696/

...And here I thought Ron was mad at me 'cuz I made him drive the last car in the morning lineup. But HEY! I got to drive Renee's "Foster/Stevenson Special", so I was on top of the world all day!! :-)
