  1. Two John Wayne movies I would consider watching again if I have to self isolate and can't make it out to the garage...The Searchers" and "The Shootist".
  2. A couple of other submarine movies that come to mind that I found entertaining and also thought-provoking were, "The Enemy Below" and also,"The Bedford Incident"...
  3. I had the opportunity to work on the refit of the USS Burrfish SS/SSR-312, (HMCS Grilse) and the USS Argonaut SSR475,(HMCS Rainbow). Both were on loan to the Canadian Navy. During the time I worked at the Navy Dockyard I had the experience of working on a number of ships that had been in service during WWII as well as working along side a number of veterans who had served. Das Boot (German subtitles or dubbed in English) is also a movie I enjoyed watching.
  4. Back in 1968 I was in a downtown bar in small town outside of Chicago; they featured an exotic dancer on stage whose performance included fire-eating while in the company of a live boa constrictor,that and the theme music to "The Good,Bad and The Ugly" playing loudly in the background. Whenever I hear that music,it brings a smile to my face.?
  5. The Hurt Locker (2008) Casino Royale (2006) Unforgiven (1992) American Graffiti (1973) Hud (1963)

  10. I made the trip to Indio,CA. by myself..(no need to cater to the comfort of others on the journey)..It was quick trip and when I pulled into Barstow,CA it was rather late in the day. While the motel where I stayed the night didn't have a 5 Star rating,my truck and trailer were still intact the following morning. lol...The quick meal I had at Del Taco in Barstow wasn't bad.The place was certainly busy, the parking lot was full and I thought to myself - the food and service must be okay.?
  11. Like the winter scene photo. I have it as the screen saver on my laptop.
  12. Could be the place I stayed a night on my way down to Indio to pick up a car some years back... that and a quick meal at Del Taco.?
  13. Todd, Nice to hear that your father-in-law has your support.?

  24. Also interesting is that the engine no. (motor no.) appears on the data plate. Is this the engine number presently fitted on the car? forum member, @B-Watson has a lot of historical information on Chrysler vehicles..?
  25. Nice car...Interesting the serial no. 9835367 is on the data plate. Serial numbers of 1942 Plymouth P14's built in Canada were, 9829856 to 9836986...
