Back window of my LT4 is loaded with Route 66 stickers.

Also the main character is the movie Cars.

Mine is simple too, my first name is Charlie, but friends call me "Chuck". My birthday is March 14, hence the 314. My avatar is me sitting in my first Vette, a mint 1988 35th ANC.

Great thread guys, I was always curious about some of your screen names and avatars.

I was always going to get a retired Army vanity plate and it would have SFC 97. Meaning retired Army in 97 as a SFC (Sergeant First Class).

Couldn't come up with a screen name so I reverted to this as my screen name. Never have got that vanity plate.

Avatar is Greg (RollaMo LT4) in the lead and me in my 90 pulling into a venue on the HRPT last year. Made the HR Mag website so I stole it as an avatar.

Biggrizzly - During the dot bomb era we had a little internet business and pet store that I ran on my own domain back then. It was called biggrizzly.com
I still have that domain but nothing really sits there any longer.

Mine came from a very drunken "Dining in" while I was stationed with
10th Mountain Division. I'm a very big fan of Single Malt Scotch. My first shirt offered to buy me a round of what I was drinking. Then he saw the bill after I swilled most of it down and called me a "*#$@ing scotCHman". We were all fairly well in the bag by that time and it got shortened to "scotsman" the next day. Not long after that guys started using it on the squad commo net and it just grew thereafter.

Avatar is to celebrate my time with the 10th DIV and serving with those guys. After being all over creation I went Echo Tango Suitcase from that base and still have a lot of love for it and the guys I served with!

Mine is my name and the numbers made famous by one of the guitar gods (and the best damn band ever). I have made several different replicas of his guitars and one "real deal" ('99 Peavey Wolfgang). Also have a Satch (real), a Clapton, a Jimi, a Page, etc... about 17 all together. My other hobby.

RUU = my initials, sort of. Some forums' software don't allow user names less than 3 characters (not sure about CF, though). A NASCAR fan should be able to figure it out - boogity, boogity!

Autobody is my trade. Underdog is my usual nickname but it was already taken. So I came up with the fender thing.
