Here is the secret to a good shine
These were developed to polish aluminum aircraft skins in the 1940's. They are heavy!

Jetcone, do you like the Ford Ranger? I am thinking of getting one - or maybe the Toyota Tacoma.
Great pics Jon! You said in your message that you were out to polish the truck, who knew you had such a great machine to do it with?? How much does that 1947 beauty weigh?
Love the lunch - I wish I could have a chocolate shake every day!

Hi Neptune Bob
I love the Ford RANGER, my first one saved my life in a head on collision on a Freeway!
Nothing like a vehicle on a steel frame!
My second one was terrific, but now I have the F-150 as I need the room and the four doors for the family.
I love the F-150 as well!
cheers

that Cyclo buffer must weigh in at around a good 8-9 pounds!
The casing is solid cast aluminum!
You need to use that bakelite handle with your other hand when you are polishing the doors as one hand can't hold the thing up!
Also with its contrary action it leaves no swirl marks.
The Bosco is delicious and lo calorie too!

Jon! I never knew that those Sharper Image vibrators could be used on a car! So versatile!
hey Mark
I use Maguiars Gold class too. That is an '01 F 150 and I didn't get to wax it last year! So that coat lasted almost two years!! I used to be a die hard TurtleWax then RainDance but Maquiars is too notch in my book now.
Peter you will be publicly slapped at the next convention in DC next year!! Then I will use my Cyclo Buffer on YOU!

That's a big rig you got there bud ;-)
I did mine over the last 2 weekends. But I prefer to do it by hand.
Wash and einzett metallic polish/wax 2 Sunday's ago
Wash and einzett Hartglanz synthetic wax last Sunday. Also used the einzett Tire Foam on the rubber.
Really feels smooth and looks wet!

I have seen those Cyclo polishing machines sold in aircraft supply catalogs for polishing airplanes-esp ones with the bare aluminum finish-gets it so shiny!And won't damage the finish.Sporties I beleive it was!Now if they could make sort of a miniature one for polishing Kirbys!
Glad Bosco is still available-remember it from when I was a child-besides putting it in milk Bosco was SO GOOD on ice cream-esp the homemade just out of the ice cream machine!Remember it came in a large glass jar-one time one of those Bosco bottles fell off the table it held its shape-than oozed into a blob on the floor!my Mom was so mad!We didn't get anymore for awhile.

Bosco was great but what ever happened to Cocoa Marsh? In the Lion container? I remember it came in Chocolate of course but also had strawberry for a time too!
Wow Steve
You just solved a huge mystery for me! I remember that Lion and chocolate milk but I always thought it was for Bosco but it was Cocoa Marsh! I couldn't remember for the life of me!
I remember the brown jar too! It was GOOD!

My parents always bought the popcorn in a round tin you put directly on the stove, that had the expanding foil top and would catch on fire half the time.
This one's not quite a old, but my favorite as a kid was Pillsbury's "Space Food Sticks". It was the original energy bar, and tasted like a cross between a Tootsie Roll and Apollo exhaust fumes. What's strange is, I remember developing a real taste for them. Especially the peanut butter ones.

I have a 2007 F-150 XLT and I love it. Great for hauling washing machines when the need arises.

1947??
The style of the label seems much newer. Also, it has a zipcode for Denver. Zipcodes didn't happen until when, the late 50's?

Yes Nurd
ya caught me, they have not changed since then, I missed out on quite a few 1947 units on ebay but then I found out they were still manufactured in Colorado! The design and execution are the same but this one is a newer unit.
have you got any pictures to share with us all?
