Yeah, all the ones at the museum were built and not original. The scaled down versions still looked fun to fly. This P-47 is a 70% reproduction ![]() ![]() One exact 70% reproduction down to the rivets, was the Stewart 51. An advanced builder experimental P-51D. Even was powered by the Falconer V-12. Talk about a sexy kit plane..... ![]() ![]() Mind the cheesy 1994 promotional music https://youtu.be/tURCGSdcEK8 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Decided to get away from Florida and the heat for a relaxing weekend in the mountains.
When we arrived at our Home Away house I was having a hard time with the driveway. ![]() ![]() ![]() When we initially arrived I scraped over this lip. Then I walked around a figured out how to beat the lip and never scraped again. ![]() The old girl tucked in the driveway, another 1500+ mile trip without a hiccup. that is over 4K miles in 2 months over 2 trips in a 27 year old car and we pushed this poor girls limits this time. ![]() The owner lived next door, he was super cool and had a real Morgan in the garage. ![]() When out for our morning walk we found this house up above us, it appeared to be a rental too, I just found it online and booked it for next year, the views from it are more than amazing. Plus I loved the mid century architecture. ![]() ![]()

Indeed,sadly I will most likely be in a rented Mini van next year.
That 318 / 328 was flawless. I love that car.

Much deserved after the weather you had yesterday. I drove thought it and endured the 95 closing as a result.
Should have just found you and spent the evening drinking.

-A low outside safety wall/edge to also keep the rain from washing dirt over the strip and onto the side of the house, -A slightly wider exit, -Repave to allow a flat resting spot before the road exit. I know they tried to split the drive grading and added the bump to keep road water away but it doesn't seem to work overall. |
