and another picture of my ugly mug… [http://i41.tinypic.com/20qn7vc.jpg](http://i41.tinypic.com/20qn7vc.jpg) I’ve ridden Harleys since I was 20.

Here’s my 66 GT Mustang… [http://i37.tinypic.com/23h6s74.jpg](http://i37.tinypic.com/23h6s74.jpg) the little mustang is no hot rod, as it’s running a 289. This 67 SS Chevelle, though, is a hot rod. It’s a 396 car, but running a 454 bored and stroked. Both of them are 4 speeds. I never grew out of loving to swap those gears… [http://i47.tinypic.com/3149qnt.jpg](http://i47.tinypic.com/3149qnt.jpg) [http://i38.tinypic.com/20gk5mq.jpg](http://i38.tinypic.com/20gk5mq.jpg) So that’s some about me.

oh. I should note, though, that I’m not one of the Brave New Harley World types. You know what I mean. The silly Harley uniform with the azzless chaps, fingerless gloves, too cool “skid lid” with all the goofy stickers like “I’m the trouble your Mama warned you about” Those people irritate me. In fact, most of us old farts really don’t like that silly crap. Here’s 3 of the type I’m talking about. Oh, and they never, ever, smile. I wonder how long it takes to learn that new Harley scowl.

Welcome, welcome! > [@elbows](#): > > Welcome **Mr Natural**! > > Nice to have you with us. Many people join up because they have a burning question that needs answering. Some just stumble in… And some get captured. But that’s neither here nor there. This is one of the greatest boards around, with a very high quality of discussion, and very few people have completely thrown off its bonds once they have been here for a while. Please answer the following questions so that we may properly assign resources to you: Coke or Pepsi? Astérix or Tintin? Apple or Microsoft? Cats or dogs? East Coast or West Coast? Hot or cold?

My first car was a '67 Chevelle. I bought it when I was stationed in San Diego in the mid-70s. I paid $200 for it, then had to replace the windshield before I could register it. Sold it a year later for $195. I have no pictures of it and no fond memories other than remembering it was my first car. Next vehicle was a brand new '76 Datsun B210. Not that anyone asked. 😃 ---
