Here's a pic of me a few years back at an antique boat show. I'm posed next to a similar boat that I had when I was a kid. I'm also probably a little grayer and less sparse on top today.

Greetings Guys & best wishes for the new year. I just realized that I have few pictures of me & even fewer of me & the Bronze Brick! Holding the broken main cap back in 05. The result of more torque than stock caps can handle as I have two like that. Note it's cracked into the bolt hole. Four bolt caps usually crack into that same area as their's a stress riser where the bolt flat meets the cast area. Anyway back in 2011 drivin' the GuTOo. And the most recent 2014 picture standing beside the Tucker at the museum of speed out in Lincoln Nebraska. The unusual usually grabs my attention?? Take care Ole' Bob.

Bob, you have that sh*t eating "this is expensive" grin going on, love it! When my old 355 died, i was laughing as I told the wife and she couldn't figure out why I found it funny lol! I had to reassure her I was pissed, depressed, etc but laughing was helping me get through the painand agony inside!

Alright, I'll play too despite my extreme adversion to pictures of myself.

My buddy Tucker and I sharing a beer last summer. Of course I got first dibs, but he was more than happy to help me finish it off!

Cheers,
