There should be music set to that one!!!!!

Pete, your wife had better have pointed out that coffee to you or you are in serious trouble mate!

Static electricity, a truly amazing phenomenon!

Hard a starboard, she won't answer the helm captain! holy crap - did you see that poor guy cranking on the wheel to make that first turn! wonderful to see that much history rolling down the road again! thanks for posting that.

definitely does NOT mean beautiful!!!!!!

Thanks for the replies everyone. I've often wondered what that day would have been like for him. We have the good fortune to have 2 B-24 liberators flying here in the US on regular tours. They both come to the Santa Rosa and/or Napa airports at least once a year. Last year I took a ride in...

B-24 J Liberator: SN; 44-41171 (J-200-CO) (CO designation = built at Consolidated Plant in San Diego Service 15th AF, 376th Heavy Bombardment Group, 512th bomb squadron Plane # 24 in squadron (to the best of our research) Plane named “Crusader Rose II” no other nose art Crew...

That was a great find! My father was a B24 pilot. Always pissed him off that the B17 got all of the glory in films - well, it was a better looking plane than the B24 "flying boxcar"; but was, at best, only it's equal in performance. David, I promised to type up a copy of my dad's war diary...

Jac Mac really needs to chime in here but I've always heard "I beam for road racing & H beam for drags" - - - cant' remember all of the logic, but it had to do with the I beam handling the rapid / constant acceleration / deceleration of road racing. Dave

Larry, look closely, it's very dim, but the car DID signal the lane change! motorcycle guy should buy a lotto ticket - cuz he's never going to have a lucky day like that again!!

Ok, I sold my GT40 to an out of state (out of California) buyer. I still have the Vanity Plate MK1 GT40 on our truck. As soon as the illegal alien rush for driver's licenses dies down, I'll be turning it in and getting a standard plate for the truck. If anyone is interested in this...

that's plenty of space! Hell, the Sheik built both of these in this garage!!

Car has sold - many thanks to all who inquired about the project. Dave Harris

Ahhh, thanks Pete - read the other thread & the light bulb came on (granted it's a dim bulb I have, but it did come on!). Dave
