Re: Small collection for sale (local)

Please let me know if no one else wants them, I will come over while I am at Spring Thaw next week. Thanx. Will do, thanks. It would be nice if some of them make it to a good home. Any idea what day works best for you? If it's before the show, maybe some of the Rusty-Family will want some of them. ...

Small collection for sale (local)

Hey folks. I have a small collection to sell. It's about 300-400 cans, nothing that special as far as I know. I'm going to be moving in the not so distant future and need to streamline the process a bit. So, this is the bulk of the cans that my father and I collected from the mid-70's thru the early...

Re: The new tow pig

That's really nice. I concur with bodean though, it's big, really big and I feel old just saying that.

My 'new' truck would make a nice hood ornament or dangly rear-view mirror bling for it. However, I do get 22 mpg.

Re: My newest "Andy's" Hillmans OI

Collecting something, anything, seems to me to be a mind-set or even a heart-set that isn't based on some standard set of rules or guidelines. Collecting is it's own thing, and I'd offer the argument here that for every unique collector there is likely a unique set of rules and guidelines. No one bu...

Re: Ever actively dislike a can?

This conversation seems to be pretty backwards looking, however if we're honest, I think most will agree that there are some pretty hideous cans being produced now by the smaller, newer, microbrew-ish type folk.

Okay, I have to admit...fake as it is, it looks fantastic.

If it wasn't such a bad "practice" generally speaking, I'd love to have shelves full of holy-grail cans faked that well, just to have 'em and play make believe.

I mean, there are dudes that still wear toupees. Am I wrong?
