  1. This reminds me of a story my grandfather told me. In the middle 50's he got a job in New Jersey (we live in Pa) and he would drive there on Sunday nights and stay over and come home on Friday nights for the weekend. He still had his first car at the time which was a 1950 Buick super, and he had my uncle install an air horn under the hood just for fun. One of the friday nights when he was coming home late at night, and was going pretty fast in the left passing lane when he came upon some guy fooling around and going slow in that lane. My grandfather blew the air horn and scared the guy out of his mind because he thought it was a tractor trailer behind him and he moved back in the right lane very fast and my grandfather got home quicker that night.

  3. Maybe you could use tin foil instead of bare metal foil. It will be easier to work with.
  4. I always shop online. The nearest Hobby shop or Michaels is at least twenty miles from my house. But if I get a chance to get up there, which is not ofen, I will always buy something. Plus, sometimes it seems you can get better deals online.

  14. Hi Over the weekend I built this amt Ford Taurus. I wanted to do something a little bit different so I put an abandoned sticker on the windshield like it was sitting on the street for a long time with no inspection. I see these cars on the side of the road all the time and that is why I wanted to do this. I also weathered it a little bit. It was an easy build and only took a few hours.
