He is ready to go !

The Doge Omni (Plymouth Horizon) in the US was a shyte imposter of the Golf!

I miss those two pin brake calipers instead of the garbage sliding caliper on most of today's awful consumer buckets!

The added "Iron Maiden" type of belt cover that was around it was unnecessary too - but someone thought otherwise in the 100 year old welding shop that it was in. People add some "interesting features" at times to machines and vehicles - some are useful and some leave little to be be desired...

Thanks for this - I found it in the catalog - and will double check the model number this weekend.

I Your garage builds are fantastic & your tin worm repairs! If I was in the market for another type 181, I would prefer on from the Bundeswehr with the reduction gearboxes - as they came from the factory with limited slip. My other un-boring car is my 66 VW doublecab Cheers!

This would be every car maker and consumer appliance maker these days - sadly nothing is made to be end user serviceable.

Fantastic decals! I might have to borrow a few of those! My Type 181 fits the "why drive boring cars" nicely.

How does one date a Champion Blower Forge ? Is it worth cleaning up? It runs great. The 3ph motor is probably overkill though.

My ex jarhead brother lives no to far away from Barstow (20mins). I have a pair of those cabinets in storage - never been outside.

Thanks ! It was leaning up against a wall buried in filth. The guy had four vintage Sioux valve grinding machines set up along one wall - also covered in decades of dust - a scrap metal guy tossed those into his dump trailer.

The only significant Proto item I have other than a few odds and ends is this puller set I bought/rescued from a home based shop that was going to be razed for "progress/development" in a nearby city.

First classified add here: I have a few, more than a few index card cabinets, flat files(map cabinets), a couple of 1980s military tactical medical storage chests, two military amorer's parts cabinets with some cleaning tools in them, two heavy duty shop tables by lyon? Six Wilton woodworking...

Thank you for the suggestions!

Monte, do you by chance have a Hazet CL-4590 available? This should be the 150th anniversary tin sign.
