Hopefully we’ll have some fun here and I’ll start.

I was a wee lad of 34 when I purchased my kit in 2004. Here I am at 48 years old with my girlfriend.

My screen name is after Nice Guy Eddie Cabbot from Reservoir dogs. (I really am a nice guy and not a ruthless murderer.)

:)

OK, I'm game . . . here's me in my MKII at the local Cars & Coffee.
Screen name came from when I used to work on Big Block FORD's in my mechanic days - the Doc part came from the fact that I was always "doctoring" something.

Doc

[Gumball]

Yeah - I'll play along.

Screen name comes from the movie "Gumball Rally" in which the star calls (or sends a telegram) to each of the participants with a one word challenge..... "gumball."

Pic of me enjoying my FFR on Route 66 and another that is my work org-chart photo (just to show I can clean-up before Monday morning).

[Jeff Kleiner]

Well, you'd have to ask my parents to explain the name 'cause it's pretty much the only one I use except for when Miller calls me Captain O Ring. Speaking of him, here's a pic of me hanging with my Brother da' bat and a couple of other FFR friends :)

Jeff (Captain O)

[RoadRacer]

Ha, great idea!

I'm RoadRacer because I'm English and think cars should be built to go around corners - left and right :) Preaching to the converted here, but not the rest of America it seems. My first build was a GTD40 back in 92, and I drove 60k in that, and around many of the well-known circuits in Europe. I lived 5 miles from Goodwood and it was super cheap so I did a lot of miles around there. Love that place.

Many cars/builds since then, but this one holds a special place in my heart and miss it often. I'm hoping the 33 is as much fun!

82326 82327 82328 82329

Been here since '98, now an official citizen.

[TexasAviator]

great idea! This can be fun!

[CVOBill]

CVO because of my CVO Harley and Bill well because that's what my parents named me. This picture is from my trip to the Tail of Dragon in Tennessee.
82336

[flynntuna]

Great idea,

My screen name and avatar are an homage to my dad. He was an owner and captain of a tunaboat based here in San Diego.
We live in Pt Loma here in San Diego which back in the day was known as Tunaville, and families of the fleet would go by the nickname of "Tuna's".

Attached is a pic of myself and bride of 36yrs.
Let me add that my forum's name is pronounced like flying tuna without the "g". When searching for a name I looked up flyingtuna an found out that it was a name of a racing team . So I dropped the g and added a "n" later when I showed my wife she asked why Flynn tuna? Well it is what it is..:p

[NAZ]

82345

NAZ is short for Northern AZ, it's where I live. And here I am (red welding hat on the Road King) preparing to lead my posse (my sons) on a short ride to the Grand Canyon and back home across the Rez.

[2bking]

This is me
https://thefactoryfiveforum.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=82396&d=1520708343
My screen name comes from my first name King preceded by the initial of my last name Burgess and I'm a junior hence the 2. So 2bking.

[shinn497]

My screen name is based off the main character of gundam seed destiny.
82398.

He is a punk. By far my least favorite character, from my least favorite anime. But I liked his name and use it a bunch of places.


There are a bunch of pictures of me on my instagram. (https://www.instagram.com/reikashinn/)


Here is one of my most favorite. I only really take selfies when I go to anime cons. As a developer and data scientist, I don't really have a dress code for work, so I look like an uninteresting bum most days. 82399

[Ray]

Screen name- given to me at birth
Avatar- combines my favorite car with my 30-yr career.

Ray

[Papa]

Cool idea! I'm Papa because that's what my grandkids call me.

Hey Mark. Might want to reconsider that blue tape. Took me an my customer all day to get it off his chassis. It had only been on there about year.

[Higgybulin]

[Garry Bopp]

My screen name is my actual name ... but my Challenge Car is named "Elvis" for no particular reason other than it is close to the name "Elvira", which was the name of my black/white Gen 1 coupe. The name Elvira came from the horror show host, Elvira, Mistress of the Dark. Black hair, black dress, sexy curves everywhere ... thought that description fit my Daytona very well.

Here's Elvira (now owned by Dr. Chip Bering)

[cgundermann]

Nothing fancy with the screen name, first initial of my first name & my last name. Avatar is “The Punisher” with sniper crosshairs; was a Marine/State Trooper/SWAT knuckle dragger for a career...

The pic is from The Bat Cave ~

[mburger]

Nothing fancy with my name. First letter of my first name Mark, and last name Burger.

How can you not Love it ? Each and every time I open my garage, wake up the neighborhood with the thin pedal on the right, go out to burn some fossil fuel it's Incredible !!! I have to get older... but not grow up..... To say it mildly... Mikey likes it !!! Mike Hartman

[Fixit]

John D. (real name)... "Fixit" on here.

"Fixit" is a moniker endowed by my dearly departed and COMPLETELY mechanically inept step-father. I'd be over there at least once a week repairing or "fixing" something he'd screwed up.

This is me doing my "I'm King of the World" impression out on the lake in "Sneaky Pete IV"

Nice homage to HOF Canadian Rockers!!!!!!

[Crawleyscobra]

CrawleysCobra is pretty straight forward. It is my last name and it is my Cobra. I also used it as my old website domain that I had for 10 years, but I no longer have. I have switched to a WordPress blog.

Here is a picture my Daughter took of me...

82623

... And here is a picture of us at a KYSCCA event in Louisville.

[turbomacncheese]

I grew up "Tony baloney, cheese and macaroni." Eventually, my family got tired of saying all that and just called me macaroni. Friends thought that was funny and called me macaroni and cheese for a few months, turned into macncheese, sometimes just mac. Couldn't think of a clever handle for my first internet forum (turbododge.com) so I used macncheese. Then the sight got hacked and all the passwords were changed and lost. Since there were fewer than 300 of us at the time, the moderator asked us all to just make new names. Prepended mine with "turbo" because by that point I had caught the turbo bug. And here I am today.

Found them when A Farewell To Kings was released. Hooked ever since.

How did you earn the “beef” callsign? Those stories are generally entertaining

Ooh fellow Rush fanatics in the house!

[mburger]

Ooh fellow Rush fanatics in the house!

Indeed. Last tour drove to Tampa to see them then flew to NY to see them in NJ then MSG knowing it was the end.
Have a PRS SE A15AL Alex Lifeson Signature Acoustic Electric guitar just because.
Sorry - this went off topic.

[wareaglescott]

User name is because I am a Auburn grad/big Auburn spots fan and the first forum I ever registered for about a decade ago was an Auburn sports forum. Now use the same user name on any forum I register for.


https://thefactoryfiveforum.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=66956&d=1493326988

[Jazzman]

Yeah - I'll play along.

Screen name comes from the movie "Gumball Rally" in which the star calls (or sends a telegram) to each of the participants with a one word challenge..... "gumball."

It's good to know I am not the only one that got hooked on the Cobra at the "Gumball Rally". I have not noticed: Do you have the Cibie lights on the front of your car?

[Al_C]

This one's easy: screen name is pretty much first name (shortened) and last initial: Al C. I use my last initial because people tend to struggle with "Cocconi". I know, pretty boring. Here's a photo of me in one of my other favorite places - the kitchen. I went looking for photos of me with the cobra, but 99.5% of them are parts rather than the whole thing. I'm planning on it being done this year!

Scott,
Entertaining yes, but in a policaly correct atmosphere completely and utterly inappropriate.

A story over beers only, in the correct company.

[Ducky2009]

A nickname my wife gave me. The Cincinnati (my hometown) Free Store Food Bank has a Rubber Duck Regatta to raise money, to help feeds the hungry. I donated money and volunteered to at the event in 2009, before moving to Atlanta. She started calling me Ducky. I needed a login for another site and she registered me as Ducky2009. It stuck.
