AlleyOop had a lot of cars... Nice ones too

I've owned a few C-bodies in the past too, a Harley-Davidson, and not to mention all the brand X cars! I just can't find all the picture's, and some I never even took pictures. Dammit!
 
Then there are the actual "Toys"...about 14 R/C planes ranging from .40 to my last one which was powered by a 3.2 gas engine. My last "Toy" was a J class R/C sailboat which I raced nationally as a member of the AMYA. It was a model of "Shamrock" 89" long, 15" wide, over 10' high with a weight of about 65 pounds. Most of the on the water photos were taken at Mystic, Conn.
Craftmanship on the boat is amazing! Great Job

That deck took me months to build, each plank is hand laid with a small piece of black construction paper between them. The deck was then sanded and varnished, then polished with steel wool and varnished again. The center plank (King plank) and gunnel planks are cherry, the rest of the deck was white pine. These photos will give you an idea as to the size of the boats..

OMG, two K cars. All your street cred went down the drain with me.

Just joking. LOL.

Had to drive something in the snow. They were great beaters and never gave me grief. I had 500 000 kliks on each one before they gave up.
