Aw, heck!! I started a Lindy Loony and a TD style Snapper (without the "snap-together" part)! I also felt the need to take pencil to paper - and those of us used to the computer age know how hard that is to get back into... no UNDO key (I know... it's called an "eraser"). I was thinking about those great Car-toons magazine pages where Trosley showed us how to draw a Rod with stance and style. I loved those! How many of us filled up school notebooks with elaborate sketches of rides we would get if we got rich off of our paper routes??? Sounds like some Fun Kits Jim!!! I still fill up those notebooks with sketches...  I Started a Deals Wheels Ranchero & bought a "Leaky Boat Louie" that I might start too! |

It should be a Snap Draggin' something out for this little shin dig. I don't want to come off as a Wierdo, after all. I mean, am I a man or a Mouse? I'm not a Rat Fink, and I can 'Toon in as well as the best of them, so Deal me in, I'll give it a Zing 'er two!
