Bruce, it has been quite cold lately here for California; so lets get doing on the desert vehicle to warm things up around here.

Too bad I can't make it out there Lyle, I'd help you clean it!

It truly has been cold, Duke... and I have not forgotten about building a Maybach engine for this project!

I’d come and help but you’re what? A nine hour drive from New York where I am....

Duke, my friend, that would be epic. Probably not much cleaning up, though. Man, that would be fun.Duke Maddog wrote:Too bad I can't make it out there Lyle, I'd help you clean it!

To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

The desert can get pretty damn cold at this time of year...Duke Maddog wrote:Too bad I can't make it out there Lyle, I'd help you clean it!

Yes, indeed! My apartment is basically heated by a mobile home (what the hell call it a trailer) heater located in a hallway. The hallway is a nice 70 degrees while everywhere else is so cold I am wearing a coat. Not a joke.

Yeah, it was just above freezing (literally) at first light here today. Now it’s in the low 40’s. I need it to warm up just a tad more so I can airbrush some.... yesterday’s temps were the same, so it really slowed down my paint drying time. On the plus side, the humidity is pretty low as well...
