Going old school

Sub'd - I'll have to get some pics together. I have the same emblems on mine with the Land Cruiser on the front too.

 

@scocar why? Because Tacomas don't fly!
And it's a Corsair!

Was really sad to have lost Race 74 a couple years ago with Bob at the controls. That leaves only 2 Super Corsairs in existence, and only one of them is flying. The other on is in a museum in Washington State.

That Sea Fury isn't bad either. IIRC, it's getting a full restoration at the moment. Fly fast turn left.

INB4 flying Tacoma pics

 

Yes, I crewed on it for 20 years.

Helped them hang the engine a few years ago. They ran it late last year for the first time.

@ Need to drop a radial into my Tacoma. Wanna help?


Maybe instead we should just go flying.

 

Incidentally, I'm a warbird guy myself. Not at your level, but a huge fan. My brother won the silver ranch back in 2010 at Oshkosh for his warbird restoration on Seafire PR 503.

Search "KOMU Seafire" on YouTube for a cool video of the project. That's my little brother.

 

That's awesome. I love Spits. Both my folks are English and got bombed by the Nazis.

 

My old man passed a few months ago, left me his '40. When I want to row my own gears (curses to Toyota engineers for offering a manual on the DCLB), I drive it. Took this pic with my DCLB the other day.

Love the thing, but wish it were still his and not mine. Miss ya, Dad.
