    My avatar is the prototype Shelby CSX7000 car right out of the ***embly plant here. This was the day of its first "sea trials". The airport (VGT) was a great place to see and be seen and make a few early am p***es down the long taxiway. Weber 4x2 intake on a 302sbf and a toploader. Took it out to Mesquite and back - aside from some problems with cooling (some things never change) it was a major treat.

    My avatar was my first Hot Rod build that started with just the body. I did most of the work myself, but has since been sold (I'm a Dumb***). I do have it tatooed on me so that I always have it with me. !:(:mad::(

    I own one, just not this one. (I guess it could be mine!) I'm embarr***ed to show mine in its present condition.

    I've had mine since 1977!

    Guess this says it all :D:eek:

    From the slang expression having one's head up one's ***, thus, wearing the *** as a hat. The term is extended to people who are clueless or bumbling, who don't understand what is going on.

    Here’s my coupe in my old avatar, I own it, drive it, and sometimes race it.

  7. The Five Window in the avatar gets driven lots. Not a daily driver as that is a plumbing truck.

    Added my avatar just to participate. This my '65 Rambler I've had for 17 years. I just turned 31 so I have had it a little longer than I haven't had it. I drive it almost everyday in the spring, summer, fall, but don't take it out in the snow when they're laying salt down

    I drove mine once w/ the original flat 6 and suspension - then I took it all apart. I hope to have her running in the next few months. She's real close to being road worthy :cool:

    Go to the profile section of manage your account there is an avatar section. You grab a pic from your computer, see sizes reqd., and load 'em up. The camera I use came with simple software to fiddle with (re-size) the images.

    Oh...you're not digital yet...well...:(...nevermind....
