I am working on an old Model A truck and have always loving working on vintage machinery of all kinds. When I finish my truck it will be my new avatar but the current one reminds me of the goal. This isn't my truck but it is what it will look like when it's finished.

 

Mine should be self-explanatory.

Mine is the top for the 2x4 setup I made from extruded aluminum.

 

Just the engine in my hot rod

 

My car before I owned it, but was on pit crew. Island Dragway circa.1964.

Just my '59 at a Sunday morning swap meet - after a bad ass breakfast from the Pig Stand

 

Only plate my car has had since I built it in 1980.

 

This one is an inside view of my McCloed Clutch and flywheel on my 11 sec. HA/GR. Slant 6. You can see that 6 into one header.

My 50 Buick Sedanette special, we call it the Buidillac, all Cadillac underneath.

 

Right now mine is my car. Sometimes it's my grandson or what ever other neat picture I find.

Why Charlie Brown, Will he is not the smartest or biggest kid, he doe's not get valitianes in his mail box, rocks for trick or treating, a goust outfit with too many holes in it, Thanksgiving dinner cooked by his dog and the sorriest Christmas tree ever and has worn the same shit for over 30 years.
Be he never gives up and never quits.

 

Mine is my attempt at a historic style early rod... the kind ya ran at the lakes.. (streamliner class)... a "roaring roaster" on the track... and an early form of stripped down weekend drag strip duty... a ticket collector on the street... now its just a dust & rust collector... but, its an on again off again project that will eventually get done...

i aways liked Mighty Mouse.......my small block wanta be.....

 

Mine is currently a '42 Mercury Hood Ornament I shot.

 

Because I don't have anything to take a picture of yet

 

Dont think mine needs one......But its my 1845 Allen Thurber pepperbox

 

Mine is my paternal grandfather. I called him "Papaw". He was a south Texas law man, rancher, politician and also owned a garage on the main street in our little town.

He was my absolute hero when I was a kid and it just devastated me when he died.

The photo is him in 34 with his new Ford....just before he married my grandmother.

She told me about how they took that 34 coupe from Brownsville, TX to San Antonio, in 1934 for their honeymoon and how it took them two days of driving the dirt road that ran next to the railroad tracks (deep south Texas was still pretty much frontier back then), and how they slept in a tent on the side of the road that first night. Cool stuff.

I miss them both so much it hurts.

 

the engine in my 63 CHEVY II. when i get my engine done for my 50 starlight.....i will change it.

 

First trip to Bonneville.....

 

Lets see, Phineous, Freewheelin Franklin.... what was the third one? My mind gets kinda fuzzy trying to remember those days. lol

 

It's a caution to youthful drivers.

 

Me with the OT Lola T163 Can Am car I worked on and crew-chiefed for a few years.

I had a love hate relationship with that car, culminating in a life-changing horrible weekend at Road America in 2006.

This picture was taken at R/A in 2010, where we went back to the "scene of the crime" and won it all...

 

Yess. Well.

My Hot Rod in progress

 

Mine was taken a couple of years ago right after my motor, the original numbers matching motor, was finished and I was able to get it installed.

Just thought the angle was cool.

Looks considerably different now.

I should mention that here in Louisiana if you don't primer all your bare metal it will flash rust overnight, so primer goes on even if you have to sand it back off again just to protect the work you did the day before.

 

Mine is my id badge from work
