. My Dad has been very ill since April, I have run the road (18,000 miles back and forth) since spring. Things have been kinda sorry in our life. No time for ourselves or much fun. My wife came home from Hobby Lobby this afternoon with this 32 model....... I have not built models since the 60's BUT I am really thrilled....... GOD..........I love that woman.......
Very cool of her, I built many models in my younger years, did one for our carshow a few years back and it was RELAXING!!!!!!!
Yeap, she's pretty cool, I like her too. It's a shame we don't live closer to each other, I love to shop at Hobby Lobby, they have a nice selection of s****booking stuff. Please tell her I said "hi" and I sure hope your Dad gets better soon. I'll keep him in my thoughts and prayers.
Ouidasue is one of the nicest people I have ever had the pleasure to know! Ya gonna build another roadster ain't ya! BTW,,,call us if we can help,,,,,,,you know we have been there Danny
Very sweet of her to think of you. I always tear up when I hear that kind of stuff -- reminds me of my wife, who surprises me with stuff a lot too. Hope your dad gets better, and that your life improves with it. Dave
That is such a cool kit. I wanted to buy it but the local hobby shop wanted around 100 bones for that deal. You are a very lucky man!
Looks to me like your wife saw exactly what you needed. With a sweetheart like that, you're a lucky guy.

[/ QUOTE ] Hobby Lobby sells the kit for $80 She told me today that she was looking at the kit and the saleperson walked up and asked if she needed any help. She asked the salesperson WHEN it was going on sale?? The salesperson asked if she would buy it then at 40% off ? 40% of 80 dollars is 32 dollars off......... ....get it ( 32 ) .............it was a sign............so she bought it .
<--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------> Flatheads ain't dead yet! But I have a small block Chevrolet in mine...... <--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------> Since your not a flathead guy. Can I get the flatty from you so I can put it in one of my older big deuces? Greg
Sorry to hear about the pops awesome wife and shows she loves you very much! which style are you going for...the rat rod? he, he great looking model, makes me want to go down to the local hobby store to see if they have one for sale, looks fun! Best wishes and good luck on your build, CAB
First of all, Best wishes to you and your father. I understand what it's like to have a sick loved one. (My ma.) My GF is wonderful; she understands (and tolerates?!) my p***ion- Our first Christmas together I got the Franklin Mint Hirohata Merc to display. This year, for Sweetest Day, she gave me a subscription to the Rodder's Journal. (She doesn't make a whole lot of cash, and has lots of tuition bills to pay, so I consider both of these items quite a sacrifice for her). I would never have bought either of those things for myself, but I have wanted each for a long time. When you guys find the woman that puts up with our stuff, hang on to her!
