Description

On The Turntable In 1946: 'To Each His Own' - Ink Spots
The Ink Spots were better known for 'I Don't Want To Set the World On Fire'.

Best Film Oscar for 1946: The Best Years of Our Lives. Three WWII GIs return home and find everything has changed. Probably a description of what almost all of them found back then. But the film starred Myrna Loy who is IMHO one of the sexiest female film starts of the day. [link] Myrna Loy also starred with William Powell in "The Thin Man" movie, and in one of my all-time favorite movies with Cary Grant in "Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House" - a story which I went on to re-live in my own life. My own experience is so close to that movie that I should sue for infringement or plagarism or something.

Myrna Loy was John Dillinger's favorite actress, in fact she starred in the movie "Manhattan Melodrama", the famous movie that Dillinger went to see and was gunned down by the police as he came out of the theater.

You've seen the butt, so here is the face of this 1946 Ford panel van. Looking pretty good, all the rust has been cleaned off, primer applied. It's missing the parking lights so this is obviously a WIP. I'll be looking for it at the local car shows in 2011 to see how it is developing.

Well, I didn't set the world on fire in my life either, although there are a few crispy spots here and there!
