I did my first vehicles in acrylic enamel. Reading about the Centari reminded me that Dodge I painted with Martin Senour Nitram. Does anyone remember that? First of all, Nitram is Martin backwards. Makes it better paint, right? It was their version of Imron single stage. I was going to use lacquer and they told me about the urethane. That paint was tough.

Yup and Imron was tough on the body too . They rolled it out with no real advances in respirator technology. We didn’t use it but I know guys that did big trucks with it and they had serious health issues mostly lung and liver damage years later .

A school mate had a stock 67 Camaro 327 2 barrel with 3ott from factory. I have never seen another Camaro with 3ott.

I believe three on the tree was the standard transmission everything else was an option .

Another odd ball I owned . 1970 Delta 88 with a 455 ci a/c buckets and center console with floor shift . We owned the car from 1971 until the 2003 . Took it out of my dads barn and it felt like it had a flat tire . No flat the frame rotted so bad the transmission was hanging and the shaft was whipping around .

A guy I grew up with had a 67 Firebird with a 3OTT and a bench seat. I have seen bench seats in a few other Camaro/Firebirds over the years with column shift automatic's, but 3OTT is pretty rare.

At least it looks to be low voltage.

And that is exactly why I shouldn’t post before 7AM. I meant to say he still shoots with his Binks. The ole brain wasn’t warmed up yet and had a miss fire. That gun has painted a lot of stuff thru the years, a 71 k10, a 74 K20 two times, an 81 K20, an 87 S10 blazer, and the interior on my 3100 just to name a few.

Where was this? Not your house I hope. Some call that gutter. I call it a poor excuse for it. That stuff is a bad idea. I wonder if this light is even hooked up. I don't see a wire run. Looks to be wedged into the hanger, no screws so not to cause leaks. I have to give whoever did this enough credit to not run the wire up into the gutter. I 'have to', right?

A Better Idea! Built in Xmas lights, don't have to put them up or take them down...win, win!

As you can tell been going through old pictures . This one has three of my favorite vehicles . My 81 J10 plow truck 96 Jeep Cherokee 2door and my 87 Suburban way out on the street . Always had nice AMC products as we would go to the AMC dealer auctions . Suburban I stumbled on for sale at a train station .

That’s my dad getting in the Jeep he wasn’t a tall guy .

^^ that light is on my buddy's back patio down the street..

we were drinking tequila and picking avocados

I took the picture when he went inside so I wouldn't embarrass him LoL

and in my ahem 'condition' I thought it better not to climb on patio furniture to look inside

his tree grows magnificent fruit - look at those beauties!

That tire pattern is exactly like the Kelly AWRs I used to run.

It has a military tag on it, from England I think, and now it's in the middle of Missouri. He bought it at auction, he buys and sells a lot of cars, trucks and parts.

I've been missing my wrecker. I used to love taking that out for a country drive. I'd get lots of smiles and waves.

Another nice sunrise at work this morning. It was cool to catch the St. John's Railroad bridge in the up position. It's the smaller bridge upstream of the big bridge.

The clear, cool weather made for a nice commute and a nice view.

Going to or coming from BJ Auctions or Mecums?

[Warrens69GMC]

Going toward Texas

Twin tornados are rare.

I am moving things around to get to where I can gut out my bedroom. I keep my beloved steering wheels there, so I had a chance to snap a shot. I still have to get the trucks but I already have their steering wheels

[Warrens69GMC]

Six more trucks for you? I love the ambition.

[special-K]

Well... two are for the trucks I own now. And the saddle Olds comfort grip is an alternative for the OEM factory wheel. I had nine on the road when I started to reduce, so maybe work my way back to 3 or 4. I found yet another that was separated from the rest, a red Impala wheel from around 71/72
