that an early starlet?

 

Yessir. Was pretty clean other than the love tap on the drivers fender and a bit of trash inside. Rest looked pretty nice. It had a JNC sticker on the rear window so hopefully the car is well taken care of.

He's out of Datsuns for awhile. Still has his Z but it's a stalled project for the time being. He got into old Volvos for a while and now air-cooled VWs. Aside from painting my old fridges, here's a couple other things he's done recently:

Body prep and interior paint on this '67 Nova...

Started the body work on my '35 pickup...

Painted this '68 that our dad inherited from our grandpa...

...plus a bunch of other little jobs. He stays pretty busy.

 

 

Not sure what's up with some of my photobucket links.

spotted a monitor top fridge in my sisters garage. This is a high mileage fridge. ft wayne to los angeles, to little henry island to colorado.

 

Used to belong to our grandparents, bought new in the 30's and it still works.

At local Walmart. Didn't know they made a hatch of the MG, all I have ever seen is the roadster.

68 Impala, for sale at a gas station. Proud of it too... ONLY $19,000! Looked good from a distance, up close it has an awful paintjob, dents everywhere and bubbling rust and bondo.

66 Baracuda, owned by a friend of my daughters. I think even in it's ratty condition I think he has the coolest car in the school parking lot! And this school is like Beverly Hills High on the old 90210. Full of yuppie cars.

Walmart parking lot two weeks ago, early 70's Monte Carlo. He was adding some oil. Sounded mean too!

Ok I love that school bus! damn I'd rock that thing as a daily. I hope it's a diesel too so it can leave a nice fat black cloud

looked like chevy 350 motor had header exhaust leak too
