Nearly complete, the 1967 Dart GT given to a friend of mine, by a mutual friend of ours before he died from cancer.

We took a drive along the waterfront Friday after work. This is at the city boat launch.

I need to track down family photos of the Micro-Midget race car my dad made back in the 1950s. Midget racers, the next size up, looked like very small versions of the Indy cars of that time. With the Micro-Midgets. having room for a driver and a motor made it hard to maintain those same body lines and proportions.

Interesting little jet, the BD5J.


I have a shot of one back in 1981. Interesting note that this particular plane still has a valid airworthiness certificate, and is still flying.

BD5J, N21AP, at Paine Field, 1981. A search of the FAA N number registry shows this airplane is still registered and has a current airworthiness certificate.

Shot on Kodachrome, with a Ricoh XR2S, with a Pentax M40-80mm zoom lens.

Copied with a Pentax K5IIs, and A50mm f1.7 lens with a Pentax Auto Bellows M and Slide Copier For Auto Bellows M.

One oft those great little curiosities that just makes me happy that such a thing exists. After seeing the shots of it I thought I had seen on in a James Bond film and sure enough I had. It was in the opening sequence of Octopussy for those who are now starting to remember it and also wondering.

Pulled my 1972 240Z out of the back of my shop the other day. 22 years of dust, dirt and insect mess.




After a quick wash.

Thanks Paul.

I still need to spend a day and clean up the red overspray, and detail the whole car, interior, door jambs, underhood.
