tasty dish



I swapped the stock tank on my evo sporty to a dished one I made for my wife's trump, I figured since her T100 wont be on the road anytime soon I may as well break the tank in and all! She wasn't thrilled...

I'm not sure if I love it or not, I kinda liked the stock tank, I guess I'll have to paint it and see if it grows on me...

Saturday Night's alright





tattooed this crazy shit, ate dinner with my wife at Reno's, went to the Old Spaghetti Factory for Spumoni and coffee, and then to Route 66 tavern for Rolling Rocks and DicE shindig, saw Scott Craig, Steve Buchannan, and a bunch of old friends I hadn't seen for years, didn't take too many pics, imagine a bar with some people inside drinking....it was fun.

the Haitian Princess



this picture just came up on the HAMB, it's my old '60 Olds Dynamic 88 on hydros, chopped, buick grille, I kinda wish I hadn't sold it, but you can't keep everything.....right?

chopped and lots of mods done by Kevan and Anthony from the Shifters in the early 90's, I found it in Hawaiian Gardens rotting away and neglected, fixed it, painted it, had my friend Miguel put hydros on it, and did a few other things and drove the shit out of it...I did it white with Cragars first, this shot was from Rod & Custom and then painted it metallic green with copper steelies and some rare fake spider caps that were in the trunk when I bought it. I'll post more pics of it when I have a chance to look for them

Janne Kutja


Janne is a super talented artist/designer from Finland. He's working on a rendering of the '40 Ford coupe I'm building, but I always loved this version of a '41 Buick sedanette, I guess I'm partial to those though....

Pedestrian Killers


found this pic on the web the other day. It's a plaque from the club I started in the 90's, got tired of chasing after stolen plaques, people ripping off our logo for band art, T-shirts etc. Lots of coffin shaped club plaques these days, I guess thats pretty cool. Good memories.

Vans crazy



so there's a big outlet center where I live in Camarillo and there's a Vans outlet in there. I needed some new sneeks, so I go in there and they're havin a sale on top of the already discounted prices. Ended up buying 4 pairs of high tops for about $80. 3 for me, one for the ol lady....I even got a pair of Slayer hightops for special occasions, weddings, barmitzvahs, quinceaneras...
