Just cuz I'm not the brightest bulb in the box, what is a "Day 2 Vehicle?" Day 1 vehicles are those that are built as "stock" like the day they rolled out of the dealership. Day 2 vehicles are those that were modified from stock the second day they were owned and refers to what kind of equipment/ mods were available in the time period that any given vehicle was built. Time period additions like wheels and tires, carburetors, exhaust and things of the like are examples of what could be added on "Day 2". |

Thanks. I've received criticism because the fuel pump isn't prototypical. Well, the kit had no fuel pump, a glaring error on the part of Revell, so I used what I had. My scratchbuilding skills aren't the best, but it's better than no pump being there.

Wasn't my idea, lol. We had damp unseasonably warm weather then it started freezing. Went out to adjust the tv antenna, hit some ice, down I went the rest is history.

I hear you on the fall. We all think we're in control and all of that stuff and then the rug gets pulled right out from under us and puts us in our place. lol.
Good to see that you're doing ok and back at the bench Lee.
