The Treasure of Them All...

submitted by John, he found these on Ebay, sealed from WWII, I wonder how fresh they are? I used to smoke years ago, but I was a Chesterfield guy...

Keith Weesner must hate me...

a few of us went to dinner last night and keith did a caricature of me on my styrofoam leftover box. I hope I don't really look that creepy. Thanks Keith!

sporty gets a little love

I just wasn't diggin the new tank on the '93, and i realized it was because it seemed lower than the old stocker and so I made some new mounts for it, looks way better, also made some heat shields for the exhaust, and tweeked my handlebars. This bike sounds and runs bitchin'

Powerglide in the mail

Just got a few copies of the latest Powerglide magazine in the mailbox, super stoked, Etienne did a great job with the article and they hooked me up with 8 pages...I havent had as much time to post on here lately, been busy at the shop, but thats good too I guess.

Shiny Bird

the T-bird just came back from paint, AFTER A YEAR. Missing the headlight doors, and forgot to paint the door jams, WTF? but it looks good, I gotta take it back again to have the Jams done, I hate (most) bodyshops.....

Blast: step 2

so i took a perfectly nice sporty tank and cut it up, I'm hoping it'll hold about 1.75 gallons when I'm done. Can't modify the backbone too much cause it doubles as the oil tank. still needs a little work, but it's getting there...

louver punch drunk

my friend Kiwi Kevin just did another outstanding job punching louvers in a one piece hood for the '32 3 window build...looks awesome
