It's a very cool vintage dragster.

Yes, it certainly is. I wish I was wearing a hat so I could take it off.

I need a flathead in my life.

It's amazing the difference new headlights make. The driver's side was even worse but I didn't take a pic. I had previously restored both sides but they turned cloudy again.

I’m guessing I snapped a photo when putting away the phone.

One of my neighbors was widowed about 15 years ago.  When she sees me doing fun stuff with cars it brings back happy memories with her husband.  Yesterday she sent me this pic.

You'll have to take my word for it - but that bright dot is the ISS passing overhead shortly after sundown during a Pink Floyd tribute band concert (called "Signs of Life" - very very good band)

Sometimes, the nail can just be a jerk.  Hard to fix the bulge in the sidewall.
