And putna banana in it. Or something.

PUTNA????????? Roger, Lay off the Egg Nog!

Wish I could use that excuse but I am allergic to eggs. Just old eyes and fingers.
I should change it but you apparently got a good laugh from it so I'll leave it.
It should be put a banana. I'm also allergic to bananas.

Roger, There are options to ENLARGE the print on your screen! I make typos all the time...I'm not laughing at you, but with you! Rich

Rich,
It's not a matter of making things larger. It has more to do with brightness and clarity.
Hard to get around macular degeneration. But I will read as long as I can.

UNDERSTOOD, BUT GENERALLY, IF YOU ENLARGE THE SIZE, THE BRIGHTNESS AND CLARITY COME WITH IT. IF YOU USE GOOGLE CHROME BROWSER, THE 3 HORIZONTAL BARS AT TOP RIGHT, WILL GIVE YOU AN OPTION TO ENLARGE OF SHRINK THE STUFF ON THE SCREEN BY VARYING PERCENTAGES BY CLICKING THE PLUS OR MINUS. IT IS THE 7TH OPTION DOWN (ZOOM), ONCE YOU OPEN THE MENU. MIGHT KEEP YOU READING A BIT LONGER!

and builds this:

Looks great! If all they give you is the lumber, I would be tempted to freelance the whole thing. For certain if I did a second one. Again, VERY nice!

Rufus, you never replied letting me know if the Pabst reefer was for sale or not!

I'll have to look for it! Stuff has been moving in/out of the shop and off the shelves into a "For Sale" pile in another room to get sorted into tubs for Strasburg. It's probably over there.......

Yes, pretty much my conclusion on the kit - just as easy to grab some strip wood and have at it. Fortunately I have the rest of the parts in my shop,

Again, VERY nice!

Thanks! Really does show that working from fairly minimal stuff that a decent looking car can be built in a few evenings. I even managed to use that old pair of Fox trucks,

Rufus, I like the car and everything about it, but isn't it a bit too modern for the CVRR? PS: I won't breathe a word.

I keep a CVRR "anachronism train" of that survived on available for when I have an open house.
