What is your claim to fame?

[chargervert]

Ain't no fame in my game!

 

[Cranky]

I always thought a good measure of fame in that department, for me at least, was how long between the first meet of your partner did it take to get to home plate, so to speak, mine was 45 mins, and we are talking no professionals involved.
I was not a musician; I was a rock & roll sound man.

Never was much on 'playing the field' and my GF's were usually long term but the majority of them fell in love with me on the first date. Eh, not a bad thing early on but later on it got to be a bit of a pain. Some latched onto me at first glance even though I don't think I'm good lookin. One begged me to marry her but found out too many years later that she was mostly looking for an avenue to move away from home. We did get married many years later after both of us married others and then divorce. 31 years later me and her divorced and my life couldn't be better for it! Claim to fame....naw.

I am the guy who made it necessary to make a rule that burnouts must not extend beyond the tree at our local strip.

I thought yours would be Guinness record for most elevator rides.

I had a couple fantastic ideas...only to find somebody else came up with them before I did.

Me, too. One was the chip clip.

And your lives are better for it.

It's on my bucket list, Mark

What's the definition, great wife, money, a bunch of cars or the people you know or have met. The older I get, the more none of it matters, except the one person I share all of it with. I've done it all and none of it makes me a better person. Counting your blessings, big or little is the real goal.

It is www.loudmouthtim.com and the LoudMouthTim youtube channel! The website is the longest running web series in the history of the internet. Really!

On the website, in episodes 74-75, I drove my broken down, rusted out, beat up, but with an excellent drivetrain, 1971 Valiant 2400 miles across the country to someone who bought it for the drivetrain. A well built /6, wide ratio 904, and other parts! And as the date at the start of the episodes shows, that was in 2004.

EDIT - for some reason, clicking the URL here doesn't work. Got to type it in.

Zero claim to fame. If there is anything…it will be spoken at my eulogy.

I would have to say having a car that you've personally built/restored and owned for 48 years was selected as a featured car at the Carlisle Chrysler Nationals 50th Anniversary of the Plymouth Road in 2018 is a moment I will never forget.

I built a One-of-None 1967 Coronet R/T station wagon. When I sold it, in 2001, the wagon went to the Detroit area for a couple of years, before returning to Ontario. A couple of my friends saw it at a Detroit collector car auction, where it was being pitched as the only 1967 R/T wagon built for a Chrysler executive to tow his speed boat! I am sure that while in the Detroit area, some Chrysler designers must have seen it, and my wagon inspired the Magnum R/T Hemi Sport Wagon. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it! Cheap buggers at Chrysler never sent me any royalty cheques, however. LOL
