This is a front frame car; Heim joint control arms, rack and pinion…I think it’s 495” aluminum headed Pontiac. QA1, 4-link 9” Ford rear end. Custom X exhaust.
Dude has $200k in this car. The body is terrible, gaps are junk, cracks in the upper corners of the window opening. I spoke with the guy that is fixing everything the last shop did wrong.
Paint and bodywork is next.

Waiting for recall work on the '23 Maverick hybrid, A.K.A. 'The Short Bus'. Rear camera software and windshield wiper motors, although I haven't had a problem with either. Too hot to bird watch the woods around the dealer lot. Tomorrow I take the 2019 Mazda CX5 for warranty work on the radio for 'ghost touches', as the service tech called them.

Happy 4th fellow Americans

I fixed what I messed up yesterday.
This is a $30 burger plate, all day long. Mixed Wagyu with 90/10 for a more stable patty…

Added a couple flag decals to the Jeep Willy’s today.

I saw this car again today. Probably the nicest 40 Deluxe I’ve ever seen. Flathead with two carburetors.
The paint and body, the interior, everything just so nice.

‘56(?) Bus

I saw a 40 Ford like that at an outdoor car show many years ago. The guy started it up and there was no sound coming out of the exhaust pipe. Engine and exhaust was unbelievably quiet.

And eleven long haired Friends of Jesus In a chartreuse Microbus

Yeah, I know the color isn't chartreuse but I get a 'Convoy' flashback every time I see this model.

Grandson has one of the first to come out. Neighbor just traded a Camry for a Maverick. Both say they love the vehicle. It is an only vehicle for both.

Gas or hybrid? I love my '23 hybrid.

Down at the ramp to card some units for YVR so took advantage of this A380 awaiting it's departure time.

This was a nice 57 post. I like a 150, 210 over a BelAir.
If I were to ever own a tri-5, I’d like a ‘55 post.

I got this little Mockingbird nest in my lemon tree. I keep an eye on them.

I assume Momma keeps a close eye on everything and everybody. Mocks are notoriously defensive.

She keeps track of me. She’s a little vocal but I think she knows I’m not after her babies.

Experimenting with some different camera settings today. Very pleased with this despite the dim pre-storm light.

What kind of camera you got, there, @BobbyFord

The colors are amazing, practically popping out of my screen and smacking me upside the head

I hit the auto adjust and it fixes all the shadows and enhances the color a bit

I have yet to take a decent photo with a phone and know nothing about the apps or software. I just got a new Galaxy A26, maybe it's time to learn.

I like that this phone camera has a macro setting also. I post a bunch of tech related pics on car websites and the macro setting comes in handy for close-up pics.

That may be the reason I haven't tried to do much with a phone's camera. My limited experience is they're not good for birds beyond a few feet, and I don't usually share photos of anything else.

Winter but so nice to get out

We had lunch at Wing and Fish Co. in Shallotte NC today. We're there regularly and I've been meaning to post this blast from the past gracing the Gents:
