    See you there. My username is my actual name, however: DakotaSheets.

    My New Wheels.....................

    No, I didn't know that. Looks like that fella with Hagerty (365 days of A) must have really got the bang for his buck then. I settle with the coupe any day.

    My New Wheels.....................

    Turn signals are seeming more and more like a good idea. I just joined the Ford Barn -- looks like they've got everything covered, again, thank you for the recommendation. I am not sure what I am going to name mine yet, I have always liked Effie-Mae. The name seems to conjure up the image of...

    My New Wheels.....................

    The Ford Barn sounds like a good deal. I plan to make the car my daily driver and have a reasonably good mechanical aptitude, along with that, my Dad turns wrenches for a living. "I love it when a plan comes together."

    Certainly. Although, NC state law doesn't require adding seatbelts if the vehicle was not originally manufactured with them, I suppose assuming that the vehicle was made well enough that it did not bother the manufacturers. If the beauty is skin deep, I'd say Sarah wears it well. Thanks.

    My New Wheels.....................

    Gee, if that ain't a pretty paint job. I've been sniffin' around for a '30 Model A myself. I had found a few, but I wont be able to make any purchases 'till the beginning of next year, so it's a bit like window shopping without all the exercise and fresh air you would usually get. The winters...

    Have you found Hidden Treasure?

    Sure, sure. I will soon, the only camera I've got is another hidden treasure, a 50's Polaroid Land camera, so connecting it to the computer is not an option, and thanks, very glad to join. Scanning the photograph, however may present opportunity.

    Model 5 Westclox Alarm clock.

    All nickel and steel it seems. There were two later models in the other bedrooms, oddly. They were made from 1980-2000, and mostly plastic.

    Model 5 Westclox Alarm clock.

    It certainly is, and wakes me up each morning on the dot.

    Tobacco Field

    This thread seems to be the meeting place for North Carolina loungers, so I may as well pop in too. In the front and left of my house are a few fields with tobacco, they've just about put in most of the tobacco so you can see it going along the side of the road from Pikeville (Where I am) to...

    Have you found Hidden Treasure?

    I found a Royal Futura 800 typewriter from 1958 in the house next to my aunt's (Which she purchased upon the owner's death). It was sitting in a television box that looked around 90's. It was in a beige trunk. All of the keys worked and still do, all it needed was a new ribbon and she was good...

    Model 5 Westclox Alarm clock.

    My Great Grandfather passed away recently. He was a pillar of the local community, town chairmen, and head of the local POW's as well. Being a POW himself he was cursed with a problem that is rather common with those who had to struggle to keep what they had while in the camps; he was a hoarder...
