 Great shot!

I've been super busy with the model trains this year, it's always fun!

Here's a couple.

This car is assigned to copper bullion service at the Kennicott mine in Bingham, UT.


Built in 1964 at Pacific Car & Foundry Renton, WA., this car would carry canned goods.

It needs a miniature Ralph Nader driving that Corvair.

Speaking as a "Photoshop" kinda guy, I hope there will continue to be people who take the time to learn to do this kind of stuff. Unfortunately, the digital age is killing this (and other) "true" art.

On one of the worst days of my life I crashed a real one of those Mustangs (an early 70's 2+2) into one of those carefully restored Corvairs.

 :mrgreen:

I saw a convertible Corvair yesterday and wished I could find Nader and kick him in the nuts. The later model Corvairs are awesome little cars.

It's always nice to have a goal.
