When customs started to fizzle in the late '60s, designer Dick capitalized on the dune buggy fad with the "Shalako GT." The VW-powered kit car sold very well, though some road-testers couldn't quite believe at first that the "Shalako" could off-road it. Dick still has his.

"remote girl" is one of the girls that never gets naked for the cameras, like http://www.nextdoornikki.com/ who some thing is even better because she's got great big cookies. So no, you could probably find tons more of her, but not necessarily better.

Looks like that thing actually penetrates his skull. Anyone have any idea what it's for? The only thing that I've ever seen that was bolted to your head like that was a halo, but that's obviously not immobilizing his neck.

That is my friend Phil, he had Gamma Surgery on his brain last week and had to wear that. Don't make him angry, you wouldn't like him when he is angry.

BTW, he is doing great!!!

Wow! Major bummer, but better to have been able to get surgery than not. Well wishes to Phil.

Phil, he is kind of like the Energizer Bunny. Phil is a cancer survivor, he has been fighting it for over 5 years, he has been cut open and restitched more than Frankenstein and he keeps going. Last summer he had the lower half of his left lung removed, 5 nodgels out of the right lung, in the fall he found out that a few nods came back to his lung, over Christmas, he found out that he had a new spot on his kidney, and right before Christmas he had emergency Quadruple bypass heart surgery. A bit over a week ago, he was having a bit of trouble remembering things, an MRI showed 2 leasons (spelling) on his brain, a few days later, he was in DC for Gamma Surgery which is when this picture was taken. He is back home in FL. having radiation treatment for his kidney. Like I said, my buddy Phil is one heck of a fighter and just keeps going. BTW, Phil is 72

He is also a huge 914 nut with 5 or 6 of them

Wow, go Phil! He looks better than some 60, 50, and even some 40 yos that I've seen.
