Ol sheep piss the grINCH !

Down by the Lotus guys ?

Spent 3 days plodding the  swapmeet, saw the QCR van but no old school stickered vehicles out in the club spots. Got a few goodies to cart back North tomorrow.

I’ll stop and say hello.

Give Fastway a try. They seem to be pretty good with pricing.

Cool build. Is the wagon an ex Steve Hildred car ?

Anyone heard of/used Meiji guns?

Picked  one up today at the tip recycling shop. Saw 'Japan' and thought it seemed well made, and feels nice in the hand, prob better than the supercheap  ones I'm using now?  Has a 2.0mm tip , suction type with 1 litre cup so may be useful for primer? Really don't know if it's good or garbage but thought for $7 it was worth grabbing...

Searched for info on MC model but seems it's too old to feature on the website. Will see how it looks after a clean and maybe give it a go...

Yeah, good guns. Used to use them to spray the caskets back in the early 80,s.

Yeah, not a bad day, good temperature for walking, talking and carting shit round. Had to do a few laps to convince myself to buy a pair of aftermarket 3 1/2 gallon fat bob tanks and a single Hustler mag to go on the wall though ? Not so much old bike and model A stuff anymore, must have run out finally. Did yabber to Highlux early on too, didja sell anything else ??

Not raining or cold yet which isn't right

Have we got the date right ?? haha. Will look out for your wagon tommorrow.

How's the weather looking ?

When I first started working, we were selling and mixing Automotive paint. There was Dulon, Duco and Dulux spraying enamel. i don't remember mixing much Duco even back then in the late 70's. The Dulux rep told me it was being phased out then.

Isn't that the old Duco ? That went out in the 70's.

Have you tried Dixbro?

ooh err.

Chrome is shit now, the chrome nuts from Nice usually need a wipe over to take the flash rust off them from new, just so we can sell them. Some we got awhile ago looked like they had been out in the weather for two years at pick a part.

I have a boob calculator thing on a hard drive somewhere, drop down boxes for blower choice/pulley size/boost target etc.

 I'll dig it out and upload it when I remember.

Yep, I use the Molasses, works well for me. 

Aw Jeez !! Thought we could sell the box full of these shots we have at work. We do actually still sell them quite regularly.

Dat sun, looks mighty like an Imp to me. A local guy in town done a few Datsun engine conversions and they went very well.

But actually yes repco used to sell them and I bet there are a few stores out there with them sitting out back on a shelf getting moved every stock take.  Hit up a repco and see if they have an old listing.  There used to be a catalog supplied by someone that had all thst sorta stuff,  including wild cat steering wheels etc.

Griffith Equipment probably have them still too.

Anyone know who that good looking bastard was that took 3rd place in the beard competition ? Had a bowler hat on.

Should see some of you guys over the weekend. Watch for big whiskers and a bowler hat, or a Purple Townace van.

Great boobs, and what about those legs !
