Not much has happened on the Heirloom Austin lately. There's been a few reasons. I'm back at work. Have been for a couple of months. That, of course, cuts into the Austin time. One other factor is my annual calendar project. I like cars. There is a company called Factory Five Racing, based out of the eastern USA, that sells kit cars. They have multiple models... their mainstay is a Cobra replica called the Roadster. They also offer a 65 Shelby Daytona Coupe replica, a 33 Hot Rod and a 35 pickup. Those are their classics. They also have a Subaru-based modern car called the 818, and the granddaddy of them all, a mid-engined, Corvette based GT-M supercar. Anyway, I have a dream of building one of these cars one day. Over the years, I became active in the Factory Five online community, and at some point I wound up doing calendars for each model's respective owners' group. So I spent much of Sept and Oct designing the calendars, and November getting them to print. This takes up quite a lot of my time, so not much has been dedicated to my Austin project. Oh, and we had a COVID scare. I was negative, but I've been sick for much of the autumn, and it still hasn't fully gone away. Some days I pray for Murder Hornets to show up and put me out of my wife's misery. How do those Murder Hornets work, anyway? Do we just send them a list of names, or what? Sample images from this year's calendars....
