Folks Of Interest H.A.M.B.er mug shots.. Let's see yours!

Me back when I was a hippy painter standing in front of a buddies 55 I painted.

 

Look at the bright side @spanners , even after all of that you're still prettier than @Lloyd's paint & glass

 

Hahahaha! I see the resemblance

My ex wife said I looked like Ray Liotta when I met her.

The imposter ....


The real one .......

 

Have to agree with her there........lucky you!

 

Wow, built in welding goggles.........

James, did the rain hold off long enough for you to get the right rear panel painted too? My son just north of you in Columbia said he's been getting some moisture today.

 

"Lucky" was a bit of a double edged sword.
When I was younger I certainly had no trouble finding those with qualities that only a "shallow man" would appreciate
But for intellectual stimulation most of them had "Budgies with knives" floating around in their heads.

People skills are far more important [my greatest skill was looking them in the eye and keeping a straight face while listening to their drivel]

But unfortunately age and treachery catch up with all of us.
Here I am trying on a new hat at Punta Arenas in Chile [the Strait of Magellan]

 

No I was a slacker today, think I ran out of gas. Didn't have any rain my way today.

 

Very busy at work here...

 

Changing the plugs in the Roadster.

 

Here is Chandler getting buckled into Steve’s 57 at Lloydfest for his first ride in a really FAST car. I think the Hot Rodding bug has bitten him hard! Randy @High test 63 is doing the honors.

 

The smile lets you know the kid is going to be one of us.

-Abone.

 

You seem to have survived adolescence quite well and rounded out your values quite nicely these days...........

 

YES!

"Little Truck Doctor" was already talking about a 41 (I believe) Chevy within hours of his wild ride in Steve's 57

Chandler is a good kid & I was impressed that after the 1st day, he came out as soon as Laura & I pulled in to help me unload her wheelchair, so I could concentrate on getting Laura safely from the parking lot through the grass & in to the pavillion! Also the more he hangs around Me & Lloyd once in a while, we will toughen him up a bit.....Don't tell his Mom we will be telling him stories from our past. LMAO

God Bless

Thank you Bill! Don’t worry about stories from the past, those are Golden! I wished we all lived closer, we love spending time with you guys!

 

Two current and one back in 53 when I was hiking my dad on my scooter...

 

Thanks guys!... Glad to see this thread back up.....

 

IF YOU'ER YOUNG, DON'T BE A REBEL : When I said " give me yer best shot, He did.

I made it thru the 70's, if I can make it thru the 80's, then on to the 90's

It's not often I have a current photo so this one is fresh from last weekend when I was discussing the finer points of horsepower with my boss-lady.

 

^^^That's funny, Danny, @HOTRODPRIMER. Is that at Hanna High School?^^^

 

Me and Roger getting ready to order breakfast at Leo's coney island on a Sunday morning.....
Damn, I'm lookin' old....
Pretty soon I'll be like him...

 

^^^^^^I think Roger needs 2 breakfasts!!!!^^^^^

 

All he had was a salad with extra olive oil.....

 

This photo was taken back in 2016, when I foolishly thought I'd be on the road with the '29 AA within the year. Well . . . I'll take another photo soon (ish) showing some progress over 8+ years. The project is the only thing that helps keep me feeling young. Everything else is aging me.

 

More recent than the last one.
