I had a great time today and got paid for it to boot. One of the largest collection of B-25 bombers since the Doolittle Raiders bombed Japan after Peril Harbor was just up the road from the shop. Since we are helping a customer restore a B17 WWII bomber I have a real appreciation for what our country went thru back than. You youngin's look it up.

 

More pictures

 

Some more plus a few vids.. The camera doesn't do them justice. The sound of these planes is unmistakable. And you could fly in one for 30 minutes for $400 bucks.

Nice Scottie

 

Very nice Scott

 

hey darrell, how are you liking the color and quality of your valve covers? randy the powdercoating guy wants to know.

 

So are you mustangless now Cody?

 

The seem to be ok, no problems. The wife liked the deeper Blue color. I never realize that there were 3 Ford Blues. I painted some of the engine bay a lighter Ford Blue thats called old Ford Blue. Wife though it was to turquize (sic). This was a deeper darked blue. So for the last week I've been repainting the engine bay again. Also brought a air brushed Radaitor cover. First show is today.

Also for Nick and Cody May 8 Z-Ford in Elkhart is having a all Mustang and Ford show.

 

I though you said you were still in school?? If you READ Coty's sig you may find your answer.

 

Nice pictures Scott.

I'm going to the track today, I'll be back on later to post my times.

 

 

that's really awesome!

Id have had to get out the check book!

 

I ran a best of 13.49 @ 104, pretty much learning to launch the car all over again with the new rear tires. I'm sure I will improve on that in the future.

 

I don't remember what your best time from last year was before the new tires. I assume they helped some?

 

My best run was about three or four tenths better already than what I usually ran last year. I think with a warmer track I should be able to grip well and get better 60 foot times. Best 60 foot for the day was a 2.0 but I think I can do better.

 

Morning Fellas

Off to the landscaping job cuz the Deans crew must not want me lol.

 

Don't feel bad Lance, they don't want me either.

11 years next month, but I was let go today due to salary cuts. Time to start over I guess.

 

wow sorry to see that Tom. thats f uped. Maybe a salary cut ok but cutting the whole job just sux big time. On the good side there seems to be some steam building in the job market.

 

Sorry to hear that Tom.

 

Are you serious? That's BS.
