Explain why you chose your avatar ......

I use it in every forum just because it is easy. I started using it years ago in a forum where there was a lot of discussion of wanting pictures of the members. Driving a convertible in the mountains with my wife by my side is a great activity so I used a picture she took of me during a club mountain drive.
 
Because it's my car and a restoration I did myself. When I complete the '31 roadster that one may become my avatar. Here's the roadster as it stands now... yeah, I know... whitewalls ! :D

It's my Dad driving the '31 Roadster that he and Mom carried me home from the hospital in in 1936.

Because this picture just didn't work out as an avatar. The one I use is my latest restoration. This one is my older brothers and sister with my uncle and I. (I was the youngest in the picture.) This was in a junk pile on our property for many years.

Mine is of three friends of mine who are very early 1928 guys.

From left to right...Ron Rude, Mike Gooding, Steve Ciccalone (May God Rest His Soul), and myself. Mikes very early 1928 Sport Coupe is behind us all. Picture taken in Wilder, Idaho about 2009.

Our 1930 coupe (since February 1977); my wife Jean (since February 1965) and me at Napa County July 4th parade a couple of years ago. Avatar pretty much says it all. (February is a good month.)
 
28-29 woodies are among my favorite Model As. Mine is one of the first 5 prototypes built 12/10/28 with original wood and no finger joints. Perhaps the only one restored to show quality.
 
My 8 year old grandson looked like he was heading out to pick up his favorite girl, and it brought back memories when I was his age and sat in my dad's model A.
 
it looks similar to my first A car, ( my first was actually an AA), a 29 coupe that was even more rough than the sedan in the avatar. It had been converted to a plumbers truck, with a box in place of the trunk lid, and pipe racks screwed to the pass side fenders. The visor was missing. There was about 5 square inches of paint left on the entire body. It had new tires and battery and ran quiet and cool, but had some electrical problems.... Cost me 125 bucks in 1972. I spent a lot of time under the hood like these guys until I got it running very well and drove it as my only car until 1980.
 
Mine is 2 favourite old snaps, one a picnic with my late Mother & Dads '30 TS about 1957/'58, I am about 3 or 4 yrs old.
Other shot of first day I got my '29 Tudor ; Oct. 1969, 15th birthday.
