@keithjenkins7952 thanks, old friend 😊🙏

@modelcars2978 thanks much, my friend 🙏 Yes they are ✌️😁

@papasmodelcarroom8450 thanks, Rob, I appreciate it 🙏 I ran an errand today (ok...I ran to Wes's Model Car Corner 🤪), struggling with worse coughs and breathing now, should've waited more days 😮‍💨 (but that sale...lol)

@@seamybmw thanks, Seamus, I appreciate you, brother 😊🙏

@Ratdaddy2023 thanks, my friend, I appreciate you 🙏 I'd taken it for granted because I'd had it so many times (about once per year from 2001 through about 2018 ish), I'm learning that that was a mistake to do so 🤦🤣 I went out to buy something earlier and am suffering for it this evening, and I have an appointment tomorrow, but looking like I'll be extending my time off from work next week 😮‍💨 Me too, especially the Cutlass and the Malibu for me 😁👍

@BigSkyModelWorkshop thanks, Joe, I appreciate you, brother 😊 I should've stayed home today (I'm suffering niw because I didn't), but Wes's Model Car Corner has a sale going...🤦🤣

@olezippi thanks, Zippi, I appreciate you, brother 😊 Fixing to finally get a little now, and kick start that Olds later today 🤪

@ronstewart9792 thanks much, Ron, I appreciate you 🙏 I'm hoping to get started on it later today 😊

@linkpoison5511 thanks, Link, I appreciate you, brother 😊 I used to get it every year after 2001, but hadn't had it for a few, apparently this one was actually the worst I've ever had 😮‍💨

@@DonnieGriffin-eo2eo thanks, Donnie, I appreciate you, brother 😊 Hoping to start building today 😁

@ramblers69 thanks, Tom, I appreciate you, brother 😊 Hoping to get cracking on it today. Haven't been to sleep yet (coughing fits kept me up), heading to nap now, lol

@JP1970 Thanks, Jason, I appreciate you, brother 😊🙏 Slowly (getting better), I have to remind myself not to push it (I'm dang anxious to get back to working out, for example, because I've not been consistent for tge last 2 months between this and covid last month 🤦🤣). I was just about to watch your sandal review when I saw this comment 😁

@brucek3217 Thanks, my friend, I appreciate it 🙏 That's me too, aside from liking 64-65 GM cars, I dug the box art, but I can't remember seeing anyone actually build one 🤔 I remember Luca Cee did one video about mini tabbing the rear for cheater slicks, but that's all I can remember seeing 😆 I guess we'll find out together 😊

@nickarvanites9409 thanks much, Nick, I appreciate you, brother 😊 Me too! 😁 I'm thinking, put lots of emphasis on "the look" I'm wanting, add a few extra details 🤔🙂

@theintake8961 I appreciate you, Mike 🙏 It's getting there, yeah (scary) 😳🤣 I guess now that I'm over 50 it's time to stop thinking I'm a young and invincible super soldier and brushing everything off when I'm sick or injured 😮‍💨 Having had covid last month probably didn't help this much either, and I know nearly two packs of smokes per day (because I'm just sitting around doing nothing) isn't. I've half heartedly tried to quit a few times over the years, but I think it's past time to start a new year smoke free, especially since I'm obviously getting older and want to see my granddaughter grow up 😊 I've been wanting to build a mid 60's Olds for a while, just needed a kick in the pants, hopefully it goes together the way I'm picturing it 🤞🙂🤞

@@Olskooldime thanks, brother, I appreciate it 🙏 Trust me, I'm taking this more seriously than it looks, taking it easy, and changes are starting now and coming (more cardio in my workouts, less bad foods, smoke free 2025, etc) 🙂

@@SteveTina1992 I promise that I'm taking this much more seriously than I let on, for lots of reasons, not the least of which that Feable loves and needs her PopPop 🙂👍

@@thescalemodelcarguychannel8681 I really appreciate that Shawn 🙏 Prayer has saved my life more times than I want to count over the years. How're you and the wife doing?

@DisabledCyclist thanks, my friend, I appreciate you 🙏 I am actually still pretty sick (I guess old habits of trying to hide any weaknesses are hard to stop), but I'm taking it more seriously than I let on 🙂👍

@LarrysModelShop yep, drowning in your own mucus and fluids, ugh. I would get a moderate case of it every year after damaging my left lung in 2001, but I hadn't I tge last few years. Apparently, this has been my worst case of it (I've never been told "we need to ventilate you for a couple days" or "you may had suffocated and died within another day" before 😳). I kinda figured it wouldn't be a problem if any of us was running a little behind, I just wanna make sure mine doesn't turn into another 2021 Dodge Charger R/T (my last year's entry, that's still barely started 🤦) 🤣 I appreciate you, Larry, I hope your week is going well, brother ✌️😊

@@SmallADVentures1973 Thank you man! Hope you have a positive week and an outstanding weekend!

@timcarson8146 thanks, brother, I appreciate it 🙏 That's Tamiya TS-50 right from the can, no clear, no polish 😮

@@SmallADVentures1973 Nice! Might need to get some of that :)

@timcarson8146 thank you, my friend, I appreciate you 🙏 I'll go check your channel out too 😁👍I just finished shooting footage (literally, just 5 minutes ago) for a hopefully-tomorrow video, updating on the pneumonia and what I'm building for my #under1000gb24, to be started on this week 🙂

@theintake8961 Thanks much, Mike 🙏 We weren't really affected much in our household, just flickering power for maybe an hour. A few neighbors had serious damage, and neighboring towns had some damage and flooding. We were blessed and unscathed, thankfully 🙂

@marsgarage8217 thanks, brother 🙏

@davidchin350 thanks, David 🙏 Spent a couple hours at the Dr today, she wasn't happy with me (for going all last week without coming in) 🤦 It was actually really bad (lots worse than I'd thought, or else I would have went sooner), under their treatment I'm already feeling noticeably better, but I am taking another full week off to recover 😊

@davidchin350 thanks, David, I appreciate you, brother 😊🙏

@@KimHong-iq2ll thank you 😊 🙏

@@kyledehartsscaleworks I didn't get notified there was a new comment, just now seeing this 🤦😆 You orta build it, they're fun kits 😁 I scored another off ebay over the weekend, so I'll have 2.5 of these kits in the stash now 😏 I appreciate the kind words, I'm really happy with the way it came out (except for the missing parts 😆)

@@SmallADVentures1973 no worries at all brother!! Sometimes these comments slip through the cracks! I really do need to build mine sometime soon. Hope it turns out as nice as yours!!

@@kyledehartsscaleworks I have no doubt that it will be nice, brother 😁👍

@@tiktokcomps8918 me too 😮‍💨

@keithjenkins7952 thanks, old friend 🙏 You remember back in those days, we'd be sick as a dawg 1 day, then dropping into a hot area out manned and out gunned and feeling back at 100% and going at em like a pack of hell hounds in like, 3 days? Whatever happened to those short recovery times and bouncing back like that? 🤷‍♂️🤣

@@SmallADVentures1973 we got old, OLD buddy, haha! Be grateful for that, we are older men who retired from a profession that claimed many younger men before they could become older men. God has His plan for us all, who can know it?

@@keithjenkins7952 wise words, brother, yes He does. 🙏

@Terry-390 thanks much, my friend, I appreciate you 🙏 I thought that I was subbed to your channel already 🤦 I just rectified that and subscribed ✌️🙂

@scaleffect thanks much, my friend 🙏 I'll be trying to get back into my regular Dr's office tomorrow (I really don't like, or trust our local urgent care, and have legit reasons to not, but I have no doubts on their pneumonia diagnosis) and I'm taking things really easy (no weights, MA, or daily workouts of any kind, staying home as much as possible, etc). I hadn't seen that, 902? Wow, awesome!! 😯😁 I think I orta start pre-planning what kinda g-away to do if I make it to 1K 🤔😁

@@SmallADVentures1973 give away your urgent care bill to lucky number 1000 🤣🤣🤣

@@scaleffect 🤣😆🤣

@seamybmw thanks, Seamus, I appreciate you, brother 🙏 Definitely taking it easy for a while longer, it's been brought to my attention that I'm no longer a younger fellow, and it takes longer to get over things than it used to 🤦🤣

@@SmallADVentures1973 Getting older SUCKS

@modelspeedshop thanks, Mike, I appreciate you, brother 👊😊🙏 they say "no rest for the weary", but at this point I'm weary of that expression 🤣 We're currently deciding whether or not that job (as much as I really do like my coworkers and crew there) is worth the continued risk, medical bills have already piled up higher than what I've earned from working there for just under 4 months 😳🤦🤣

@theintake8961 Thanks, Mike, I appreciate you, my friend 🙏 It was my pleasure! 😊 I was thinking, "my friend Mike's been going through some personal stuff recently, I hope I win this and can surprise him with a little piece of good news for once!". Joe's an awesome guy and this was a really cool giveaway for him to do, I really enjoy his channel, too 😊

@@Olskooldime thanks, brother, I appreciate it 🙏

@@LeftCoastModelCarBuilds thanks, Paul, I appreciate you, brother 🙂🙏

@@SteveTina1992 it's still pretty rough 😮‍💨

@BigSkyModelWorkshop thank you much, Joe, I fully believe in prayer, and despite my sinful nature, my faith in Him is firm 😊🙏

@keithsmodelsandrcs6593 thanks much, Keith, I appreciate you, my friend 🙏 It's been pretty rough 😮‍💨

@@SmallADVentures1973 I get ye bro sure is but I'm glad you're over the worse of it 👍

@ramblers69 thanks, Tom, I appreciate you, brother 😊, me too (I'm sick of being sick)

@nickarvanites9409 thanks, Nick, I appreciate you, brother 🙏 I enjoyed talking to you as well, my friend ✌️😊

@linkpoison5511 thank you, brother, and we're still lifting you up in prayer too, my friend 🙂🙏
