Yep it's a Catlin. It is nice to have friends. I was running late to the auction so a friend bid on it for me and I got it for 35 bucks. I have hundreds of radios but only a few catlins.

"Some" hardly describes a wall of radios! Where's the rest? Like the Crosleys.

I have a collection of a few hundred novelty and transistor radios stored and about fifty floor model radios. I should get the floor models gone. They all need work and take a lot of space. I only have a half dozen in my house to enjoy.

I have a few fire extinguishers and figured I needed a sign to point the way to them and an alarm to tell me when to use them. Thanks to the OGers that made them available.

Here's a couple of my Beer Tappers. The PranQster is new, the Skip Jack is one The Keeper got me for Christmas last year. I finally got around and made up a few bases so I could display them in the Man Cave or the Production Room. Later . . . Jim

Been after a 1955 F100 for as long as I can remember... Finally found one that wasn't hacked up or had a 350 put in it! I brought her home last Thursday now I can start making her mine I'm going to give her new suspension, brakes, steering, interior and paint it's gonna take awhile but eventually she'll be a show stopper!

Very Nice Truck and it's wonderful to see that distributer up front and center on the engine! It is also a perfect parking space for it!

I really like and respect all the classics and antique auto manufacturers but it still stings every time I see a pretty Ford car and pop the hood to see that distributor at the rear of the engine close to the firewall. The worst one was a beautiful Candy Apple red, 68 Mustang GT/CS (Original California Special)! Someone put a Chevy 350 in it. I was more of a purest back then but I still really appreciate Beautiful Blue, classic Fords with a Ford power plant, even if it is a 6cly like this one was that I put together. When I was more of a purest, I was going to get my hands on a 71 split bumper Camaro and put a complete Ford drivetrain and accessories in it but I've softened and am way too busy to do something like that now. No workable shop for that yet, either. GREAT BOTM!!!

Thanks for the compliments, it's been a long 22 years of wanting and 4 years of serious looking to find it. but the right one finally came along me and my youngest Robby are looking foward to working on it together and maybe someday it'll be his. Only time will tell...
