Nice looking shooting irons. My arthritic old hand needs a thumbhole stock. I bought this Hogue stock to check out the needs for a wood stock (cheek height, pull length). I have a plank of walnut with some wild grain in it that I'm considering using.

Super Tug working our local airshow several years ago.

I love that smell of green oak as well. That's the kind of log splitter I use

Random. I snapped these pictures at our local ATHS show last fall

Cool little tug! Good taste in wheels.

Question: Ya think it might be a little overkill running a supercharger?

Answer: Absolutely!

**Boog** · 03-28-2022, 06:17 AM

Perfect!

Yep! Gotta say it sounded great, but not as awesome as those round engines!

**special-K** · 03-28-2022, 08:39 PM

Nothing like the sound of an old radial

Saw this at the 2017 Rocky Mountain Street Rod Nats. Heard it on Jay Leno. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HADpy9bF2U4

Went from mud to frozen solid around the wood pile.

As a former owner of a real AMX not to sure what to think of this 77. He cranked it up for me, has a nice lopy cam. I’ll toss in a pick of my old one too.

It’s a quirky little thing the later AMXs . I still like my 69

Those two cars occupy two completely different places in my mind. I like yours for what it is as a representative of the muscle car era. Good photo, but looks like it was a little foggy that day? I like the green one in that it represents an era where the automakers were doing what they could muster in the wake of the gas crisis. The era of where the Mustang King Cobra shared its chassis with the Pinto, etc. I like that they were trying to do something to set those cars apart and that one is certainly eye-catching. From that era I think one of my favorites would be the Chevy Monza Spyder.

**FleetsidePaul** · 03-29-2022, 07:15 PM

In back of my buddy's shop today.

Another one from my buddy's place. I believe it's a 46.

You are correct. It's waiting it turn for a resto.

**Steeveedee** · 03-30-2022, 11:54 AM

Good thing you're in the high desert! Wet country that'd be iron like you find in a mine.

You don't see a lot of rust here. Maybe some surface rust. Upholstery gets fried though. The sun can be brutal on seats and your dash. You wouldn't believe the rust free stuff I see all over the place just sitting outside.

**special-K** · 03-30-2022, 06:43 AM

Wow, what a car!

Random shot of "stuff" in my barn before emptying it so I can move it

**special-K** · 03-31-2022, 08:17 AM

It's waiting for this

It sure is. He just has to finish his 55 T Bird first. He has them stacked up. He's got some beautifully restored cars in his shop. His work is top notch.
