Boss JD Hogg

I hope it works.

Thanks Skipper for letting us know.  Her Daisy tribute is great.  It would be great if she joined here.

Boss JD... I'm trying to convince her.

Hi Boss JD Hogg. I have a Tribute page on Facebook called Rob "Skipper" Broadhurst, Alan Hale Jr. Tribute Artist

Thanks Skipper for letting us know.  Her Daisy tribute is great.  It would be great if she joined here.

I am Alan Hale Jr.(Skipper's)Tribute Artist. I do lookalike/recreation/reenactment/pose/tribute scenes of him and myself together on Facebook.

Thanks, I'm doing fine. I had a good night last night except for making a mess on my pillow because the bandage didn't stay on. It's been over 24 hours now and I haven't even had a headache or anything. In fact the whole experience wasn't even that painful except for the time they cleaned out the wound and put the staples in.
I'll never forget the white light though. It's something that will always be with me. Even though I enjoyed it I hope I go another 50 years before I see it again. LOL

I had a little accident at work today. A heavy piece of metal fell on my head and cut it open and knocked me out. I came back to the real world before the ambulance arrived but then fell unconscience again. I woke up again and got loaded in the ambulance and barely remained awake but was confused on the way to the hospital. Luckily the cat scan showed no serious damage and I was released under the watch of my wife. I feel fine but she's going to have to keep an eye on me for a couple days. I have a severe concussion and 7 metal staples but things look good.
Here's the amazing part. I've always heard stories like this but never thought I'd experience one. For a while I saw the white light everybody always talks about. At first I was really scared but then I felt a really deep peace like I've never felt before. I was a little disappointed when the paramedic yelled at me and woke me up because the feeling was so soothing.
Okay, I'm being a little dramatic with the headline of my post. I don't really know if I was close to death or not. I probably wasn't but I'll never really know how close I was. The deep peaceful feeling was an emotion I've never felt and something I'll never forget. When I'm fully recovered I have a lot of people to thank.
Every once in a while we get a reminder how precious life is.

Besides the holidays at Christmas and Easter, we have these bank holidays in Ireland:
Saint Patrick's Day (17 March) First Monday in May First Monday in June First Monday in August Last Monday in October

You too JD. It's great to hear from you. Happy Thanksgiving to everybody. I always feel bad for Hoss.....on July 4th too. Hoss, how many holidays do you have that we dont? 

It's been a while since I've been around here.  I want to wish you all to have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanks for posting the pictures!  That's a lot of General Lees.
Your Cooter 1967 Ford wrecker looks amazing, like it's right out of the show.   

CONGRATULATIONS HossC for being elected the 2020 fan of the year!
He was extremely nice and shared some art work for a Dukes project with me a few years ago.  I haven't gotten to it yet but eventually will.  As Roger said above he is a true Sonny Shroyer kind of person.

Last I knew I was still in charge of this section so until MM fires me or throws me in the HazzardNet jail I'm going to violate the rules and give credit to a moderator, even though moderators aren't eligible. Hoss has been around this place for well over a decade and has logged in over 5,500 posts. It doesn't matter that none of them made any sense, that's a lot of posts. But it's not the time or posts that make Hoss special. It's the fact that he has the heart of a Duke. The majority of Hoss's posts show you the kind of person he is. Not only does he help people, he goes out of his way to help people. Not only does he go out of his way helping people, he goes out of his way looking for people who he can go out of his way to help. He may not be from the South but he is truly a Sonny Shroyer kind of person who treats everybody with love, respect and dignity and for that we give him our love and respect. We appreciate all you do Hoss. You are truly a cornerstone of the foundation of the greatest website on the internet.....and I'm just kidding about none of your posts making sense. I think I saw one in 2011 and another one in 2015. Oh yea, another thing about Hoss. He has a great sense of humor....um, I mean, humour. CONGRATULATIONS HOSS on being selected the 2020 Fan of the Year!

Yeah. But my admin friends who help me run them got me back in and at the top position again.

Boss JD Hogg... Roger Duke has to add me as a Facebook friend again and make my new Robert Broadhurst account an admin of the group. I was hacked/stolen on my original account Robert John Broadhurst II(Bobby John) and it has been reported and closed by Facebook and I was admin on that account. Roger needs to make me admin again on my new Robert Broadhurst account so that I can approve you Boss JD Hogg.

Happy birthday Monday Boss. And happy birthday to HazzardNet's "Boss JD Hogg"

I just put in a request to join your Hazzardnet Reunion group on Facebook.

Yep it sure sad news Boss JD Hogg!

This is sad news.  

This is sad news.  

It's been a while since I've been around here.  I want to wish you all to have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Here's another update!
I painted the interior and used embossing powder for the carpeting. The interior is painted Tamiya XF-59 Desert Yellow. The dashboard and speaker tray are painted Testors Acryl Leather with a few drops of white added. The center console is painted to look like wood although it doesn't show too well in the pictures. I painted Testors Acryl Leather over Testors Flat White with some Radone Tan added. I used BMF(Bare Metal Foil) on the door handles and trim.
The chassis is done. Since it's a snap kit with molded in exhaust and drivetrain, I just painted it Testors Acryl Aircraft Interior Black. The Exhaust and drive shaft are brush painted with Citadel Leadbelcher. The engine oil pan is brush painted Testors International Orange and the transmission is Tamiya XF-16 Flat Aluminum. The gas tank was airbrushed with Tamiya XF-56 Metallic Grey.
The body was clear coated with Gunze Mr. Super Clear and polished.
I have to apply BMF to the moldings and install the windows.

That's a nice model of Jesse's truck!
On the show when they gave a description of a car they would describe it as a blue sedan or a red truck or something generic instead of using the cars actual names.
