wctransfer, I took a long look at your photograph and you know what? you bear a startling similiarity to a three unit lashup of EMD locomotives.  Do you ever get any comments on this singular fact?

Actually, it would not do anybody any good for me to post my photograph; there are millions of idiots in this country and we all pretty much look the same!!

My other hobby is my 95 year old house.  The great thing about living in the Historic District is the historic plumbing...

I raced go carts years ago (early 60s) and a friend had a wreck on a Triumph 650 so we mounted the engine on one of my carts. We never knew how fast it would go for sure but at 60-70 we still had two gears and throttle to go. It was unbelievably over powered but fun to drive. 350 CC was the highest class in cart racing at the time as I recall.

What a camera! But, maybe you should spend just a little less time painting your models, and just a little more time painting your house.

He weighed around 250 on the hoof i am guessing, My dad is a Taxidermist that is why we have all the stuff in our garage.



Dang, nice buck! What a rack. Thick. How much did he weigh? I'm used to shooting does and spikes. I wish my garage looked like that.
