And . . . thirty years later the cute boy turns into this (this was taken about fifteen years ago when I spontaneously got into my car one night with my golden retriever and drove to Memphis [a selfie from a sleazy motel mirror]).

Amazing how that slicked down hair turned into an afro. Reminds me of my second brother. He has a strawberry blond afro if he lets it grow.

Yeah, never had a problem with balding, even today, it may be gray but there's a lot of it.

The Chrysler B platform was the basis for rear-wheel drive Chrysler cars from 1962 through 1979, and the front-wheel drive Eagle Premier / Dodge Monaco 1988 through 1992. All of the B-body cars in a given model year for either make were built upon the same chassis.

ok bored already with mortdecai after only six minutes, not much of a fan of unfunny silliness, so you'll have to endure me until I find something better to watch.

Very nice. I had to lay off the new toys for a while...today's my Friday so I got bored and did a custom paint job on a zero mod sleeve :D
Stressful week, of course lately seems every week is lame at work
Please post it. I do decorative painting on the side and would love to see what you did:)
