  1. Guess I missed something here. I thought the reduced flight golf ball was only for the pros. Sounds like it will be for everyone?
  2. Where are you playing with those yardages?
  3. but remember when we did the kicking. 17-16, Bo over top, Marcellus Mostellar fumble or kick six. Granted I have no clue what the defense was supposed to be. They could have put six guys in end zone and covered everything.
  4. Yes - thanks. It's Iron Bowl - for the last 50 years there have been outstanding ending like this. For both sides. I have been kicked in the gut and done the kicking.
  5. Same here about 1990. Skiing was great but it was absolutely freezing. And that was the week before Christmas. Can't imagine January/February. One thing I do remember and hopefullt they changed it. It seemed like every run ended way below any chairlift. I was in really good shape and got very tired of hiking uphill 50 -100 yards with skiis to get to the lift
  6. If that front bar isn't from Toyota you might want to try to figure out how it affects the front airbags. Not sure anymore but 10-15 years ago it was an issue.
  7. Not exactly a classic yet but late 80's early 90's Mustang or Camaro might be worth looking at. Not outrageous price and can be modified. Plus you get some safety items that the older models don't have
  8. About 20 years ago I thought I had won an M5 from BMW Club raffle. They posted the first name and city. It was my name and the city before Austin which caused me to try to figure out if I joined before after moving. I didn't win
  9. And that's quite an understatement
  10. Standard black - interesting that the seats we had made in 1980 are still pretty solid. Under that tarp in Georgia they didn't get wet. Definitely new carpet etc. If I put a top on it it will NOT be white. Dad did this and white only looks good for a week or so
  11. One more since it timed out. I think I've what I mentioned how difficult it was to get the Iris Blue close to what it should be. And as you can see - any light makes it look different
  12. And it's back in the garage doing the work - not in body shop anymore. Here's how it looked when I acquired it from my twin brothers estate - just a little crusty. Paint job was done in our garage in 1980 A lot different now
  13. Well today just about every one of those buttons still exists on a touch screen - not sure which is better
  14. No one has suggested "The Great Escape"? McQueen, Garner, Bronson, Coburn, Pleasance, McCallum and Attenborough at least deserves a place at the table. I still like Mad Mad Mad World only because most of the stars were comedians.
  15. And we are getting closer - paint is done. Just for reference it's a 1962 MGA MkII. And nope I am not doing the body work. It's up in a specialty garage in Michigan. I did body work on my first MGA in 80's as a poor student. I wasn't very good at it and didn't like doing it. Not a good combo
  16. No idea why but Mom had BCBS Federal which must have been golden. In 4 years at nursing home she took ambulance to hospital probably 6-7 times. Never saw bill. Never saw a bill for anything from the hospital either.
  17. Long story but you can - just not like it was in 80's. IIRC the issue is not using tritium - it was disposing of the dial ten years later. To avoid dealing hazardous waste a lot of manufacturers went to Luminova. One or two still do tritium with tubes which I guess you can dispose of.
  18. Anyone know what Bulova is using for luminescence? Looks like aged Tritium but that really isn't an option these days. The website did not say
  19. and that is getting more difficult on new cars. My Lexus has somehow integrated the emergency brake into the maintenance system so you need a Lexus computer to disengage it during a brake job
  20. My potato is 14" laptop with 1920
  21. Featured products sidebar is still grabbing about 25% of my laptop screen.
  22. well they also had Lemon twist with the Mod Top. That was out there also. A good friend in high school had a Cuda with it. He raised all sort of mess in it - like it couldn't be identified. Probably was only one yellow Cuda with that roof in the entire state.
  23. I know the 60's were full of crazy stuff but a Panther Pink car just doesn't do it for me.
  24. over/under 5 million. I'll take over
  25. Rocking the early 90's IBM classic keyboard. have a couple from Austin IBM surplus store. They go for a lot on the bay. Easily the best keyboard I have ever used.
