RE: BAD ME! - 12/17/2008 4:48:11 PM    whitefish   Posts: 21 Joined: 6/29/2007 Status: offline Hey ajohn Here's one I dug years ago, it's damaged but it was already half-way to looking like this so I kept it. I put it up on the roof and turned it every few weeks, and at the end of the summer it looked like this. The glass itself is kinda satiny in texture, really odd. Makes a nice window bottle.

Georgia Status: offline Imagine this:  Finding a dead on original A model in an old barn, orginal upholstery, correct engine, everything just like it was 80 years ago, just a little dusty.  You take it out, clean and shine it up, then decide to paint it purple.  That's how some here feel.  Just the mood I'm in today...
