  5. Ron,<BR> The snail picked up the article today so it it on the way.<BR> Yes, it can be fun, but also frustrating, tiring, and the monthly deadline seems to come around twice a month. However, it is well worth it though when someone come up to you and says "that was a great issue that you just published".<BR>later-jac

  7. James, I purchased shoulder straps for my '46 Ford from <A HREF="http://www.andoauto.com." TARGET=_blank>www.andoauto.com.</A> They have seatbelts/shoulder straps for many antique cars.<BR>later-jac
  8. Ron,<BR> AAh, the old Moire pattern, well there is good news and bad news. Tod is correct, most scanners purchased in the last year or so have a "descreening" function. The good news is that you have Photoshop which has some way of dealing with the problem. The bad news is it is not step by step process. Some times one way works and next time you have to get a bigger hammer. I will list a couple of things you can try and if you are going to Hickery Corners MI I will give you a write-up on solving the problem. 1. When you scan use a much higher resolution than you need, then in photoshop reduce the resolution to your requirements. 2. Another way that works sometimes is to use the Despeckle filter in Photoshop or the dust and scratches filter. 3. Some time the gaussian Blur works when all else has failed.Just go easy with the Blur for you can loose some of the details.<BR> If you are not going to MI I will snail mail you a copy ot the article on Moire patterns.<BR>later-jac
  9. HVS, I had to chuckle when you mentioned rocking the car to free up the starter. When I went to college I had a '46 Mercury that in my freshman year I had to rock ocasionally because the starter would lock up. By the time I was junior most of the time I would walk up to the car , rock it once or twice, get in and start it. It just became a part of the standard proceedure of starting the car. Why did I not fix it? danaro,dinero,dinheiro,dengi...etc.<BR>later-jac
  10. Sounds good to me. I am looking forward to the tour since this is my first.<BR>later-jac

    Alan,<BR>I have signed up for the Founders Tour, however I am not bringing the Vette. I will be one of those back seat drivers. I will be on the look out for "Big Red" and "Puff" and during one of the refreshment hours I would like to hear the rest of the story. <BR>later-jac

  14. I will be there.<BR>later-jac
  15. hvs~~~Maybe we need Rick H. to go with us when we judge. He could lift one side of the car and we would not have to lean down so far.<BR>Not even one one knee!<BR>later-jac
  16. Not only that hvs the one knee is tough for us old guys.<BR>later-jac
  17. One knee--page 20 article 4. 1. d. The chassis judge shall---"lean down on one knee and look under the vehicle." This is per the AACA Official Judging Manual revised 2001.<BR>later-jac
  18. I am having the same problems that BruceW is <BR>having---very, very very slow and locks up <BR>fairly often.<BR>later-jac
  19. Rick,<BR> The shipping time alone is enough to qualify this car as an antique. I agree with one of the other DFer, you should bring this car to Hershey. All of the DFers have an interest in the car and have been sweating out the delivery.<BR>later-jac
  20. Dan, one is a matter of interpretation--<BR>one donut, one dozen, one gross, ...etc. Have<BR>HVS drive ONE big truck. <BR>later-jac<p>[ 04-24-2001: Message edited by: jac ]
  21. res1967, I know what you are going through. I have moved a number of antique cars and it has been my experience that it take at least two weeks longer than the quoted time. Yes, I have contracted every mover that advertises in Hemmings. All with the same results except one , Intercity who picked the car up and delivered it on the stated day. One of the moving companies is headquartered within twenty miles of the delivery point--how can I go wrong I ask? Well, after listening to every excuse under the sun I cancelled the pickup. You have to give them credit , they are creative in producing excuses. <BR>Keep us posted and take a few more tums and aspirin!

  23. Dan, <BR> As you know, there ARE 63,000 AACA members.<BR>I have not checked the roster, but could there be both a M I S T E R H o o v e r<BR>and the Rick Hoover that we know? Hmmmmm.... <BR>later-jac<p>[This message has been edited by jac (edited 03-27-2001).]
  24. M i s t e r HOOVER?? Man, I knew him when <BR>he was just Rick. <BR>later-jac
