Re: What Other Hobbies & Interests Do You Have?
So, I got to thinking about my hobbies - and the list was long - so I pared it down to the ones that drive my wife nuts (just kidding - after 25 years, she figures it's just the way I am.)
So other than the Model A Hobby

Re: What Other Hobbies & Interests Do You Have?
My first hobby since the ripe old age of 1, Toy Trains, got my first electric train for my first Christmas. Still have it. I am in the process of unpacking my trains and building a new layout since being on a hiatus for the past 6 years. I threw together an quick 4x8 layout to get the juices flowing.
I also enjoy "Blues" and playing the Blues Harp(Harmonica) |

Re: What Other Hobbies & Interests Do You Have?
My favorite hobby? When? I Loved working in a mine for a while. I loved restoring old Chris Craft, Mahogany speed boats. Until there were no more cheap, easy to be had ones. The same is true of flipping houses, suddenly every body got the idea. Funny, I was never bitten by the motorcycle bug. And then there was flying and my own C-172, till a student crashed it, sigh! Guns and gunshows? Love em', but Jersey de facto ended that! I reallly loved operating a small organic farm for a while till the land, much of it I didn't own was built up and I couldn't shoot the deer that were eating my soy beans every night. The I restored the two tractors, a Ford 8n and a AC mod B. All in all, A lot of great memories. Many of which no one will ever experience again.
Regards, Terry |

Re: What Other Hobbies & Interests Do You Have?
I try to collect original Model A parts that other people take off of their cars and replace with chinese junk.
Also have a 1926 Chevrolet Touring that I have been collecting parts for what seems like decades. Darryl in Fairbanks |

Re: What Other Hobbies & Interests Do You Have?
I am very varried in my interests! I work for a Harley Davidson dealer and antique motorcycles are probably my #1 addiction. I am also into old Jeeps (I have a CJ7 a CJ5 an M422 and a M38), old Johnson outboard motors, AMX's, guns, guitars, old farm engines, and pretty much anything with an engine!

Re: What Other Hobbies & Interests Do You Have?
Growing up my Father owned a hobby shop so you can imagine how cool that was.
Plastic models, then radio control air planes, then motorcycles, then beer, then women, ect. Now antique tractors (1935-36 John Deere B's and 1940 Ford) Harley flat heads ( 1934VLD-37ULH-46WL-47U with side car) And anything else old including: Gas pumps, pictures, guns, farming tools, and my 1929 Model A sport coupe that I cant wait to finish.

Hey Pete, Thanks for the kind words! Actually, I would invite you to stop in for a root beer float or chocolate malt from the soda fountain and a few games of pinball. The fun of having the Hot Rod Grille is having friends drop by for a visit! Jim |
