How to hide behind a pug...or how to properly hold a "big dog".

Here's a couple of me- The first one is me at 16 with my grandfather and the Model A A-400 we restored- the first car I painted. The second one is me a few years back selling some of my Corvette parts stash at an NCRS Regional show.

My brother in law posted this on a bulletin board at work when they had a competition at work posting younger pics of themselves.  He's a bigger person (350+) so I told him I didn't realize he used to be a good swimmer

With the ongoing '66 Chevelle project. Happy as a clam, as usual...  :P

66 Chevelle... a car that I've wanted for 40+ years. Well, wish in one hand and... in the other and see which one fills up first.

Drop in a 396 or a 427 backed by a Muncie Rock crusher and headers.

If that's addressed to me, the car has a normally aspirated (FAST EFI) Smeding/Jenkins 572, dyno'd at 750HP on a single 4bbl, backed up by a built 4L80E, fabbed Strange housing and 9" out back.

It's not mine, but the last customer build I intend to do.

It started life as a real SS396, was used hard, drag-raced, rusted, wrecked, and left to rot. Nothing was retained from the original car but the main upper body shell, doors, hood, and deck...and the VIN.

Nice way to leave the biz, and the client is one of the best guys I've ever had the pleasure to do business with. And on this one I'm getting the credit for what parts are mine. :D

That is me in the middle of my "granddaughters"; at least they call me Grandpa.  They are our last year's fast-pitch softball team - broken nails or dirt in the face did not hamper any of these girls, they came to play softball.  They got knocked out in the third round of state finals.  (I'm the one in the back with a beard).

Somewhere on the site is a rather extensive Members Faces thread, but maybe it is worthwhile to have an updated one from time to time.

Here is one from last year, doing something I really enjoy.
