Thanks! I'm about to run out to work so I'll post more when I get home later.

Yes, it's a '73.

Man, it's been a long time coming, but we finally got the Mustang started and out of the garage on Saturday. Cleaned it up yesterday.

I have to check the rear wheel cylinders because the rear master reservoir was dry. Also need to put the rear valance and bumper back on, as well as some trim items. But it's running great.

Your beautiful car, Scotty, could well pose for Ian Guy, he's a specialist artist whose subjects are motoring. UK based but his work is in demand just about everywhere. Here's a few of the Mustangs that he has done, the last one has his website detais. You can buy any of his prints from about £25, that's currently just $33US.

Awesome Scotty! Congrats! She looks great!! Has she been painted recently, or is that an older paint job?

Haven't been around much lately because I have been in Europe for a spell. [emoji14]

Yeah, I was kind of wondering what happened to you.

That's the paint it came with when we got it about 20 years ago. It's amazing what a garage can do for automotive preservation!

I'm not one to take photos of my cars--just not my thing--but I dug through my archives and found these low res photos from Halloween 2007:

2007 Honda Ridgeline RTL, about three months old in these photos. It's not vintage, classic, or flashy, but 11 years later it's still my daily driver and hands down the best vehicle I've owned.

Those are really nice. If he works from photos, I could have one done.

Pic from 1984, I bought this 1963 Corvette Coupe from the original owner. After a two yr restoration it Top Flighted at the NCRS Nationals at Copper Mountain, CO. I sold it in the 1990's.

Like the paintings above, this painting was done from pictures in abt 1985. If you are familiar with the 1963-1967 Chevrolet Corvette you might notice two things different & custom ordered by the original owner: it is a radio delete car, & it has an extra outside mirror on the passenger door. Daytona Blue with Saddle interior.

If only I had a chopper license! Coolest motorhome I've ever seen!

 

[3fingers]

If you could afford that motor home you could afford to keep a pilot on your staff.

No kidding. I'm familiar with the make and model of that helicopter (Robinson R22) because at my last place of employment we processed parts for them. Fully loaded (which ain't much) and with a custom paint job the bird alone would currently cost you about $315,000, and approximately $150 for every hour of operation (not including insurance).

I looked hard at a Revolution Helicopter for a while which came 75-80% preassembled which qualified it as a kit. You finish it yourself & it qualified as homebuilt. That got it around licensing requirements. My better judgement took over & so I never bought it but wow, what fun one could have!

Finally got to see the new 2017 Campagna T-Rex's with the BMW 6 cyl engine. Red on red!

This reminds me of the Morgan 3 Wheeler:

Powered by an S&S 1979cc V Twin engine. They're probably both fun to drive and the Campagna is probably quicker and faster, but for my money the Morgan gets bonus points for style and looks.

I love the T-Rex with the BMW engine. I hear Jay Leno has one in his collection. Like climbing into a race car!

Of all the motorcycles on the streets & in the museums at Sturgis, if I could pick just one to bring home this version of Captain America would be up near the top of the list.

If you're a bike guy there's nothing prettier than a panhead.

Much as I love the chrome work on the engine, I've never been able to fall in love with the long front forks, if I could pick one from that showroom it would be that green 1940's WLA. At least that what I think it is. My friend bought one, some years ago, from a fellow who had planned to restore it. (Uncle Sam left 100's of them behind at the end of the war.) When my friend bought the bike the restorer had stripped it down and then lost interest. It must have been an expensive mistake, my friend bought it on the cheap. He re-assembled it, but didn't try to make the finished appearance immaculate. He did an excellent job, here's my missus posing in front of it.

Hardtails don't ride like a Cadillac but the fork makes it very stable at highway speeds.

This reminds me of the Morgan 3 Wheeler:

Zombie_61, I like it, too.

Got a chance to meet the "godfather" of the new Morgan three-wheeler, which was birthed right here in Seattle before hopping the pond back to Merry Aulde England. There are a few notes on it here, if you're interested:
