He still trains six days a week and looks great. He's also a car guy. Had 20-30 pre-1932 fully restored cars when I met him, not sure what he has now. I do remember him being glad there was another car guy in the family, but made me promise to not hot rod any of them if I ended up with them..............:lol:

Damn! He's in great shape! How old is he now? He must be puching 80?

yeah, he turned 80 today. Not as big as in those photos, but still in great shape.

He's also a very nice guy, very friendly. I will admit I was a bit intimidated when I first met him, but that quickly disappeared.

In addition to cars he also collects and restores old bikes, and I heard he has 500+ old wind up toys.........

Is that Arnold in that 2nd to last pic?

Yes, my father in law (Bill Pearl) was Mr. Universe pro when Arnold was Mr. Universe amateur.

That is awesome Jody!! Very cool. I used to read all the Muscle & Fitness and hardcore bodybuilding magazines when I was younger and I can definitely place the face. That is awesome. Tell him HAPPY BIRTHDAY and many more!:thumbsup: :cheers: :cheers:

thanks guys..........

What's wrong with him? He has bumps and lumps all over his body:D

Happy birthday Mr Pearl. As soon as I saw him I recognized him. When I was a kid I used to see him in alot of body building mags. Thats cool! I alway thought he had an awesome build. I'd love to have an autographed picture of him for my garage . Sweet!

Dang Jody! I remember him! Too cool man.

thanks guys!

Jody

Thats real cool.
I remember pics of him when I used to go to the gym. They had pics all around the place of the guys who really started the bodybuilding movement.

I wish they would get back to this type of physique in pro body building. The over bloated bellies of current body builders just kills the appeal.

Thats so cool old pics of him. How does he looked now at 80? Does he still have those muscular body? Tell him belated Happy Birthday and more birthdays to come.... God Bless!!! :)

in great shape for 80. Here's a recent pic of him with my brother in law Fil Pearl (Bill's son) and Bill's wife Judy.

He's 80 years old now? WOW! Time does fly. He does look great.
Still got some size to him for sure.
