Of course, I'd want the wagon.

Yes, the Nomad is fantastic. Gotta love Harley Earl. He was a brutal tyrant at the head of GM Styling, and I pity the talented people who had to endure his behavior. But damn, he got good results! (Sort of like Curtis LeMay with SAC).

Doc, where was that pic taken?

The best part about that isn't the broken frame. It's the dog in the shade.
 


 

Yeah, black dog, long thick hair in the desert?  Good plan.

Must be something wrong with me, I think of David Wallens when I see stuff like this.

My son tapped a few maple trees on his property, hopes to make the boiling step more efficient by next year.

Done that many times with our kids.  We found the most efficient way of boiling down is to use crock pots / slow cookers on high with the lid off.  We have three that we ran 24/7 for days and days constantly topping up as the water evaporated off.  You'll need a fine sieve for scooping out the little bugs and stuff that find their way in while collecting.  It tastes different from commercial syrup, but it's awesome too see the kids face when they pour their own syrup on their pancakes.  We used at least three taps with large buckets to get a tiny amount.

My BIL has his maple trees tapped. I'm trying to convince him to make some maple liqueur and put it aside until August when he comes down to the beach.

50/50, put it in the fridge, let it age.

Can't remember if this was when Bruce bought the Speedster from Steve, or when Bruce sold it back to Steve a few years later. In any case it was poor timing on the part of the photographer.
