73 buddy!

I like field days.

SDR and internet radio repeaters kinda miss the point.

But antenna software and the cool things you can do with beam forming now are amazing.

Yesterday it was a Bowie anthology.

In honor of Apollo.

Today I've got 60+ doors to run through the SCMI panel sander, so it's loud and I need to keep up.

Old school drum heavy metal/thrash (D.R.I., Sepultura) and early punk/industrial from Danzig (Misfits) to Killing Joke.

Today I passed this guy on the Alpharetta Autobahn:

It’s a worn-looking but still solid 80-81 F-100 Custom. And I give it full credit, it was holding its own on one of the fastest highways in America.

I see the missing taillight, but what's going on with the black stripes on the gate?

Sorry, I'm on a phone.

Both taillights are there...it's not a great picture, I took it on my phone at ~80mph. Don't tell my mom.

That black stripe is actually a patch of rust on the tailgate - not sure how it ended up like that, whether it was a previous attempt at repair gone wrong or what. I know it's a F-100 Custom because it still has the fender badge on the passenger side (he passed me while I was getting off the highway a couple of exits later). It also has the letters on the hood, but a later grille.

Sightings are cool.

I saw a guy in a resprayed '85 or '86, white with blue stripe stopped at the rail crossing in Glenbrook the other day.

As they say "pic's or it didn't happen"

Do we need a 'sightings' thread somewhere?

We already have THIS thread.

It's supposed to be a catch-all.

Just do like I did and change the title, post, and edit it back.

Scene, Seen, Spotted, Sightings, whatever you like

There are 3 bullnoses sitting in a company parking lot just down the street from my customers office. One guy onsite drive a pretty decent looking bricknose. And down the street at a transmission parts warehouse are two daily driven bullnoses.

The ones behind the fence, two are swb 4x4s and one is a long bed 2wd. The others down the street are all long bed 2wds.

I could mention the camo-painted Bullnose I saw in the hardware store's parking lot this morning, but I don't have a pic so it didn't happen.

And, when I went back later to get a garbage disposal it was gone. (Have you ever seen a disposal crack in several places in the housing?) Maybe it was a fig newton of my amalgamation?
