    I've seen quite a few of those vintage car junkyards pictures but very little is worth restoring relative to its rarity versus the cost of doing it considering the value once finished. :(

    Before the dominence of ball caps

    Bal caps didn't become "dominant" until the 1970s when scads of cheap "once-size-fits-all" caps flooded the market from one of the Chinas. And the main problem was that they were knock-offs= bogus insignia not paid to the teams and sanctioned by them. Before that guys were wearing, yeah...

    THE OFFICIAL INDIANA JONES HAT

    Sheesh! Saw a $65 all wool Indy hat advertised somewhere the other day that 99.999% of the average persons would say looked fine.:)

    What WWII games really need right now...

    You really know a game is a piece of crap when it won't even install.lol I loved this RTS game called Commandos 2. When the eagerly awaited Commandos 3 came out it was done by different people and not at all playable. The worst thing was that most people couldn't even install it! It would...

    How we dress and what we drive

    The thing about all automobiles and their vices/virtues is that people ultimately buy what they want despite input from others solicited or not. If you want to complete your perceived picture of being full vintage there are legions of vintage cars available for $10,000 or less. "Real vintage...

    What WWII games really need right now...

    Twobar- your additions simply cement the fact that the entertainment software corporations couldn't find their butts with both hands. All the things you mention are so typical and what's worse have happened years before with other titles in other genres! Only very occassionally a company...

    The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford

    Then there was the contemporary song- The dirty little coward, That shot Mr. Howard, Put poor Jesse, In his grave.... Jesse was living under the psuedonym of Mr. Howard at the time. I have read so much about the actual James and Youngers no movie can do it justice. I won't be...

    Fiction set during the war

    Know what? Best thing you could do is actually interview people in their 80s. Believe me it is the only way you will get past the jaundiced view we have imagining we know what the times were like and what people were thinking. Ask the actual people what they were thinking and feeling! You...

    What WWII games really need right now...

    Game companies are like TV networks- when there's a hint of popularity of a certain show everyone else copies them and airs their own version. No originality. No bold lead. There were times in the past couple decades when I was involved in combat sims where 4 of the top-named companies put...

    Vintage watch repair

    It's probably not permanent. If you ever had a degausing tool to use with tape players it demagnetized the head. A few care passes with one might help the watch. Yeah, a place that repairs music players, VCRs would be able to do it.

    1:6 Scale World War II Dioramas

    Believe me it is easy to become immersed in a hobby like that. I remember creating a bunch of weeds near the railroad track by applying singular shafts of selected dried grasses for the effect I wanted. Wish my eyes was still that good for close up stuff.:o

    Cannot wear stingies anymore?

    I like 2 1/4- 2 1/2 as in my Hughes avatar. Most often when I wear anything less than that I turn the brim down all the way around for a completely different look.

    The Pocket Phone- Cell Phones

    Of course the Army field radio back pack does give that vintage feel. Might be somwhat problematic with the 3 foot antenna.
