1922 Indian Scout and books associated with the marque. Next project is to build a trailer using the 21in A rims that I can tow behind the Tudor. Anyone got some pictures of what trailers looked like in the late 20's and early 30's".

I am new to my second love but I have a 1983 fl harley for 23 years and it was my love till my A hope to have as much fun with my tudor

Well...being raised in an auto salvage yard and body shop formed me into a life long car builder...but only as a hobby...not my career. I was a private pilot for 25 years, accomplished construction builder of homes and shops . I enjoy woodworking and at one time built and sold 100's of unique birdhouses (wrens only). I also enjoy flying RC airplanes and choppers. Always had auto shop nearby. Oddly enough my career was in law enforcement and corrections....from a beat cop while attending college in 1972 after military to the Director of Correctional Services for 28 years...retiring from same in 2006 at age 57 to play with my toys. I am now enjoying my A and T restoration. Quite a leap from 500hp to 20 and 40!

BobK · 08-28-2014, 12:22 AM

In no particular order. My interests are: Model A rod bangers, Sportfishing off of the SoCal coast. I used to run a passenger carrying sport boat, Vintage 356 Porsche which I still have one, Ceramics, I have an MFA in ceramics and still like to spin a pot or two. My last hobby is steam locomotives, 12" to the foot scale. I am the mechanical officer on a 1942 mainline Santa fe Steam locomotive of the 4-8-4 wheel arrangement. www.sbrhs.org. I am looking for another hobby to fill in my free time. Whoops, forgot my 16 cat buddies. No dogs right now.

I enjoy collecting antique pocket watches and antique pistols. But like my antique cars, I can only afford the cheap versions. Thats my hobbies.
My interests are pretty women, but at my age, its a one way street..

rwiegand · 08-28-2014, 08:07 PM

Woodworking, fly fishing, and antique mechanical musical instruments, eg http://www.carouselorgan.com

Paul_nz · 08-29-2014, 01:12 AM

Is anyone interested in the Can Am series from the 60"s, I have some interesting memorabilia from that era.

nickair · 08-29-2014, 05:50 AM

Model A's for three generations in my family.

Driving and working on my Model A is my fun hobby.
Flying my high performance aerobatic RV7 is my exciting hobby.
Rebuilding our 1934 farm house is my expensive hobby.
Running our mini-ranch is my responsible hobby.

The Model A is a regular at the feed store.

Kids are grown, so it is me, my wife and our Australian Shepherds.

I love it all, every day.

Bob Bidonde · 08-29-2014, 06:31 AM

Staying alive, O-gauge trains, guns, street rods, and fishing.

Bertha · 08-29-2014, 08:38 AM

Seems a lot of us like 'toy' trains...interesting.

Gunmetal blue2 · 08-29-2014, 09:59 AM

Besides owning a 1929 AA CCPU I am totally restoring the truck. My other hobby is Drawing parts of the truck that I have not been able to find drawing of. A to find out if parts are able to be repop in better quaity than the parts that are being made.

bobusnick104 · 08-29-2014, 10:20 AM

I have a couple single engine airplanes and enjoy driving my '29 tudor to the airport to get a different view of life. Also ride a Harley and a Corvette convertible. Toy box is just about full!
