Lucky guess, saw the 56 in the background and took a shot.  Todd was close...Troy :cheers:

He is old so ya gotta cut him a little slack Troy...  :roll:

If anyone deserves some slack it's Frued, that kind of stuff never bothers me and I'm used to being called Todd.  Many of my ex co-workers used to call me that, a little ironic.   :cheers:

It started with T and had 4 letters.....close enough for someone who's still at home while the salt is being groomed.

Wouldn't that picture of the roadster been "68"?  According to Al's bio on his site, that was the first year for the STB. I didn't remember, had to look.

Life is an abrasive. Whether you get ground away or polished to a shine depends on what you are made of.

This photo looks more "race car" than "museum piece" -- that's how I remember it.

Kent got me all excited -- then I reread it.  I thought I could get another A-bone!

Your shirts don't have the HALO.

That foto has been in my garage, next to the darkroom door for at least 20 years.

probably 30 .... sign went missing in 80 or 81. 

Some of my shirts have the halo... some have a reverse halo... depends on age and use....
