    My dad had a 68 GTO when I was a kid, and I often remember him saying, "Son. This car is yours when you're old enough to drive." Then we moved to Arizona and he had to sell it--we both regret that move :happy102:

    Awesome video, Blair! It's almost therapeutic watching a razor that can top hair :D

    13 pages today? Catch up shavette fu....

    Very nice Keith! Love the Dorko.

    Super shave Randy!

    A little oops there Paul....better will come!

    Really nice Jim! Love it all. And that is an awesome haircut and selfie! My wife trimmed mine last weekend. Of course, it's just buzzing a Wahl with a 1.5 adapter around the bottom inch. The rest....well, it's long enough for 18-24 months of proving my caffeine intake.

    Great report and shave Joe! Love the big Friodur.

    Very nice Jeff! Great report and awesome variety in your image!

    Some great results there James! But...might want to rework a lather that doesn't meet expectations. It's worth the little extra time, imho.

    Great report shave and image Evan!

    TLDR...not. Great, awesome, incredible catch up details and images Tim! Wow! Congrats on the halfway point.

    Gary, dude....awesome image and report! Love the posts on the cars and the case! Very nice sir!

    Great report and love the Titanic'ing going on til you finish that soap and aftershave Joseph!

    Great image Clint, really like that Stuga. And I'm dense....still can't tell what you're gonna do on next Saturday about the Blackland Tradere. Got Jim figured out though.....

    Very nice Simon!

    You's guys and open edge shaving your noggin. Awesome variable control it is (even with the mishap). Great setup for both shaves Neal!

    And....I think I got them all. If I missed anyone, sincerely sorry!

    Talking about cars while growing up....lots of cool ones mentioned today. Us....1965 Plymouth Barracuda w/273 HEMI in it. Automatic unfortunately, but that didn't slow it down much.

    Funny story. Once I started working......I paid to put 4 tires on it. Had to go straight from the tire shop to pick Dad up. Stickers still on the tires. He....said he wanted to drive. Okaaaayyyy.....then proceeded to leave a 100 foot 2 trail skid out of his office parking lot, me mad and making all sorts of comments about just putting new tires on, and him burning a couple thousand miles off of them..... His comment, 'See how it feels'......

    Winter and my mom killed my dad's '69 Stingray. Idaho winter, and she hit some black ice going into a gas station, maybe... 5-10 mph? Hit the car in front of her, and the fiberglass body just shattered. In those days my dad prided himself on always being able to sell a car for more than he paid for it--the Stingray was his one failure :happy102:

    Oops. Didn’t know that much detail on the motor. Just regurgitating what I heard/thought. It was so much fun in the wet. Tires lasted longer, and was good for learning drifting....err, car control, yeah car control.

    Great video, sharp is sharp and those razors are sharp. You can hear the hair screaming as they gets severed. It is the same test are use when sharpening razors.

    My first car was a 72 dodge challenger with a 318 engine. By the time I was done the engine was burned up and the transmission fell out I had a lot of fun with that car and happy memories. If they sold them here in Korea I would definitely buy one and relive my youth. Hopefully I will treat the car better this time around.

    Keep up the car talk, I have to live my dreams to you guys now. We don’t have any fun cars like that here.
