What are your other hobbies? - tomustang - 01-04-2009 Besides modeling HO Trains, I'm into cars. A lot more than my HO's. Power, handling, good looks as long as it hauls! two of the biggest toys we got are the cobra and trans am: We did eventually sell the trans am, and probably sell the cobra soon to buy a C5 Z06 then add a mild cam and corsa cat-back to it. Another is tools, can't live without them. They are the basis of my surrounding, love to tinker with anything mechanical, especially large/heavy equipment. So, what are your other hobbies? Re: What are your other hobbies? - LynnB - 01-04-2009 ahh is there any other hobby well other than RRing then riding the open road?

Re: What are your other hobbies? - Russ Bellinis - 01-04-2009 Mine is a 1987 Trans Am. It was originally a 305 with 5 speed and a carburetor. I swapped in a 350, installed a tune port injection system, rewired it, and swapped out the non world class t-5 for a world class t-5 with 1le gears. It has 2 sets of sub-frame connectors. The Alstons stiffen the chassis, and the home made fabricated ones below the door sills give me a good jacking surface on both sides.

I'm always amazed at the depths of that program and how far Adobe has taken it. hock: Re: What are your other hobbies? - iis612 - 01-05-2009 Beleive it or not, I am an accomplished musician. I used to be the lead vocalist in a country band called "Northern Boy Blues". We did record an album, good luck finding one. I play guitar, and I LOVE hockey. I played for over 20 years. I also like building model cars, but that has been long dormant. I am also a "Gearhead" at heart. I love classic power, and home made drag cars. Pro-street 1/4 milers. I have built and raced 10 so far. Not so much anymore, but I used to be a competetive pistol marksman. I also write, even though I have horrible grammar. I have at least 10 completed screen plays and 5 novel manuscripts sitting around. Matt Re: What are your other hobbies? - Puddlejumper - 01-05-2009 I am building a 1979 Ford Bronco. In the shop right now for the Bronco is a 521 CID Ford with a fully manual, reverse pattern C-6 tranny, and NP203/205 double transfer case and one ton 8 lug axles. I am also working on restoring 3 tractors, a 1939 and a 1949 John Deere and a 1939 Oliver. My inside hobby (besides model trains) I am learning to play the Resonator Guitar (aka Dobro) in a bluegrass style. Dave Re: What are your other hobbies? - nolatron - 01-05-2009 Also into R/C cars, though I consider Model Railroading my primary hobby as that's where most of my time and money go.

Re: What are your other hobbies? - ngauger - 01-05-2009 In no real order...... Photography, antique cars and Geocaching (google it) Re: What are your other hobbies? - ezdays - 01-05-2009 Writing seems to be my latest passion. I've been writing articles for two newspapers, The one in Tehachapi, CA is on trains (think: Tehachapi Loop), I've been doing that for about two years now. The second one is in Cincinnati, OH, and is all about how I view life in Arizona. I've been at this one for over six years. My other hobbies are woodworking, electronics and let's not forget shooting trap and pistols.
