    Ever since I can remember I wanted a red '57 chevy. I had several '57's over the years but it wasn't until 1992 that I got and built this one. Ok, red 57's may be a dime a dozen but underneath and inside it's unique.lots of blood,sweat and time have gone into it. I bought and built a few other car over the years, but I'll never get rid of "Betsy"

    I've probably drawn different versions of a wheel standing 49 chevy "gasser" 20 times over the last 35 years. this one was just a big pencil scribble I did who knows when... came across it a while back and filled it in with a sharpie pen, then manipulated it in photochop and there you go...

    my first avatar was just a boring 1949 factory photo. the only way I'll ever change this one is if I ever re-do it with more detail.

    My Avatar is my "23 T roadster. Its the only action shot that I have of me cruisin' down the road. I didn't even know that the picture was being taken. Its off of "HotrodHotline" a few years back. It happens that I know and have a great deal of respect for the lady who is the photographer. I feel honored that she took the picture and included me and my car in her work :)

    I just snapped a picture of the picture in TRJ and put it through a filter on my iPhone and really liked the result.

    I thought the 55 Plymouth Polysphere engine in my 35 Ford pick up was fairly unique so I ran with it. I'm in the South so I'm thinking fried chicken LOL .... really I meant to choose POLYFIED 35 and messed up so I let it ride.

    Drew it in Visio then finished it up in Illustrator. I think it's kind of cool. :cool::D

    My engine on the dyno. We had already started unhooking hoses, etc. when my wife took the picture. This is for a Bonneville roadster now under construction.
