Re: Day 2 ZL1
That's a neat picture in front of the B-17. Those old war birds are cool! Where was that particular pic taken? Dan https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gif

I am glad that you were not upset by my suggestions. They are some that I learned the hard way myself. My only problem is that that was back in 1972 and the pic of my 70 Baldwin motion vette are too far away and I used a polaroid which don't offer much to show the car and now I would give anything to find better pic of my cars from back then. If only I had been able to learn this from a forum like this then I would not have a pic like this one that you can just barely tell what the car is. Live and learn. I just wanted to try to help you not make the mistakes I made way back then. Glad you took it in a good way. Digital cameras offer the ability to get better pic that ever before. I am looking forward to seeing the new pic you take. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

Re: Day 2 ZL1
Yeah, that B-17 was a VFW war memorial that was first put on display in the 1950s. Since day one vandals and scavengers have taken damn near everything of value out of the airplane. The airplane was moved to the Tulare airport several years ago and placed in a more secure display. I seriously doubt it will ever fly again but you never know. I fly the west coast alot and I've seen the polished skin of the Tulare B-17 from 33,000 feet up on a sunny day.
As for the blue COPO, what a great car. I prefer the steel wheels with the hubcaps but it is nice to have an alternate set of wheels for a change of look. I'll bet it's fun to wring it out on those valley farm roads eh? |
