Stuka Replica


 This 7/10-scale Ju 87 B was built in 1977-78 by an engineer named Louis Langhurst from Carriere, Mississippi. It required 8,000 man-hours to complete and was patterned on the full-size Ju 87 B Stuka currently on display at the Chicago Museum of Science & Industry. The plane is powered by a 220-hp Lycoming engine (vs. the original Stuka's 1200-hp Jumo 211) and has a top speed of 137 mph. It is currently owned by Mitchell Sammons of Belgrade Maine.

Directores Mark Neveldine y Brian Taylor dicen que pueden volver para 'Ghost Rider 3'



Aún no han decidido cuál es su próximo proyecto, si las cosas van bien, podrían estar trabajando con Nicolas Cage de nuevo muy pronto.

El dúo dijo que está intrigado por la posibilidad de volver con el universo de "Ghost Rider", y que la estrella de la película también está dispuesto a repetir su papel como Johnny Blaze. "Se ha hablado acerca de [la secuela]," Neveldine dijo en una entrevista reciente, en lo que respecta a tomar reuniones con Sony. "Sé que Nicolas Cage quiere hacerlo, está muy emocioando al respecto. Vamos a ver que se puede hacer."

Pero ahora mismo, Neveldine y Taylor se debate entre  "Ghost Rider" al lado o una tercera entrada en la " la serie, que ha estado dando vueltas desde hace un tiempo. "Va a pasar, va a ser escrito, y será en 3D," Neveldine asegura a los fans, a pesar de que dicen que todavía están con ideas, alegando que está impulsado por "la cerveza, el tequila, hablando de las ideas, haciendo lo que queremos hacer, y tratar de empujar para hacerla ". Taylor añade: Está destinado a ser una trilogía. Y entonces tal vez vamos a ir para las precuelas de la forma como lo hicieron la saga de'Star Wars."
 
Así que amigos con esto esperamos que que Ghost Rider 3 sea una realidad, talvez ésta salga para el 2014...

1965 Chevy Sportvan


The vehicle(s) of my youth... I think I had four or five of them in succession. None of mine had windows but it was the height of the custom van craze, portholes and sunroofs were in! I bought them when they were 10 plus years old and tired, then ran them into the ground all the while aspiring to customise them.  As a vehicle they were basic, noisy, cold and rattly. They came with 6 cylinder engines but the small block V8s bolted right into place. Much better. Standard transmission- 3 on the tree, no power brakes, no power steering, no power anything.
They were much like a Volkswagen van but more useful, more stable with more power and a flat floor, you could carry motorcycles.

We used to make things in this country. #93


The Outboard Marine & Manufacturing Company of Canada was actually headquartered in Illinois and made Evinrude & Johnson motors.  It changed its name to the Outboard Marine Corp in 1956, the same year it purchased Industrial Engineering, Canada's largest chain-saw manufacturer   OMC moved this new subsidiary to Peterborough, Ontario, and changed the name to Pioneer Saws Ltd.  (Although gone now, Canadian-made Pioneers have earned a good reputation.  I've got a big Pioneer saw, and it's been good to me).  The company also bought Cushman in 1957.

a quick glimpse of the Desert Classic Concours d'Elegance at Westin Mission Hills Resort & Spa in Rancho Mirage, California






much more coverage of this past Sunday's show to come, it's going to take a lot of time to work the photos first before posting them.

Beautiful day, great venue, marvelous variety of cars, and I'll be there again next year. This was my first year there, and I am getting a bit farther from home a bit more now that I have a new car with 38-39 mpg to range  farther out into So Cal

Things I had to take home with me from the swapmeet. Doesn't being at a swapmeet make you realize you have to buy at least one thing that is cool, but you don't need?

 Hell no I am not going to work on Carter carbs, but I couldn't pass on this tool set for 20 bucks.

 I've never heard of Marvel Mystery Oil Company making anything but oil... so this had to find a home in my garage for 10 bucks
Starett is high quality, and this is accurate to one thousandth of an inch. Perfect for 20 bucks
