 :(  No new posts in 12 days.  " A new track record " I believe.

I continue to do a little at a time on my  Salvinos modified.

I'm working on 3 or 4 different cars right now and not getting much traction on any of them.  Maybe time to start something new! <<<< not even joking about that

I just spent 62 days in the hospital. Too shaky to do much modeling, but have started back on a short track '56 Ford. Slow but sure is my way of doing things for now. I've had to learn how to walk again and my muscles are pretty week. Looks like Lupus got me. One day riding my Harley Trike, two days later, in the hospital and couldn't lift a finger! Home now, and getting better every day.

  Still working on the Mustang II dirt late model....
  Had a computer issue a few weeks ago.....I may have lost hundreds of pictures that I had stored on the hard drive.... most of them dirt track stock cars and reference material :'(  going to have  an I.T try and restore things...finger's crossed.  Still dont have the ms programs that I used to edit pictures, so posting pictures here are out of the question for right now.

  This is our busy season at work, so 10 - 12 hour work days are common...been working more and more Saturdays as well so build time is at a premium once again.
  I still check things out here at least once a day....

  Figure out which one your getting the best traction with and go for it.....personally, I'd like to see the Ed Sanger Monza get some bite.

 :) :(  Well, glad I chimed in.  So sorry, Rett, for your problems.  Wishing you all the best.  You and I have been around here as long as anybody, I guess. 

My energy level is extremely low.

Real life does get in the way of our hobbies from time to time.

Thanks John, I'm getting better every day. Should be walking on my own in another week or so. Maybe a cane, we'll see.

I know I haven't posted for quite awhile.....got 2 cars in the making, but lately I've been hooked on rebuilding & hopefully racing my old HO slot cars.  Gonna try to go back-and-forth with these projects.

I check every day, sometimes twice a day. I've been busy with my other hobby, bass fishing. Made a modification to my boat late in the winter, been fishing as much as possible this spring. I have managed to complete a NASCAR Buick Regal and have a T-bird on the bench.
