It’s Friday! Another weekend is upon us and wouldn’t you know it, we have another winter storm coming in tomorrow. The last one fizzled out for those of us in the far south-west suburbs, so it’ll be interesting to see how this one goes.  

Today I have more amateur goodness to share with all of you. This collection (below) is for the truck and tattoo fans out there. Her name is Barbie and I have a feeling we’ll be seeing more of her in the future.

Hi Keep! I’m attaching a series of shots of a friend of ours named Barbie. She said I could submit these to you for the Amateur postings. I told her you’re a motor head LOL!! Obviously you can post as you see fit and I have others also but I’ll send more of her and Penny later. -Bob

It’s Thursday. One of my readers recently came across this beauty in Fort Myers Beach, Florida. It appears to be a 1956 Corvette in Venetian Red with white coves. It’s difficult to be certain because there were very few cosmetic changes between the 56 & 57 Corvette. One of the few ways is to take a closer look at the rear-view mirror and how it’s mounted to the dash. In the ’56 the mirror was adjustable with a thumbscrew on its base, but the ’57 mirror required a wrench. If you take a closer look at both of these photos, the base of the mirror is covered by what appears to be a string of beads! Dammit!

So we’ll likely never know for certain, but at the end of the day all that matters is he’s driving it home and we’re not!

Keep, saw this in Fort Myers Beach last night and immediately thought of you. Thanks for all you do…..??? -Fred

It’s Wednesday. What was supposed to be our first major snow event somewhat fizzled out. Out of the predicted 5-9 inches I’d say we got maybe 3. It was enough to transform the landscape and momentarily mess up the roads but that’s about it. On the other hand, our dog Abby thinks it’s awesome. Marilyn, our cat, completely disagrees. 

I have some new amateur goodness to share with all of you today. It comes from a reader who appears to have taken advantage of some quality time with his wife during the quarantine. And once you see his photo, who could blame him? Enjoy.

Keep, I thought you should know that you have a hell of a nice website. I don’t know how you keep it up like you do but its quickly climbed to the top of my favorites! I’d like to contribute to your “amateur goodness” with a picture of my wife [of 4 yrs] from one of our quarantine sessions. It’s yours to share if you so choose. -Anonymous
