crack is whack....unless it's romantic


my 6 year anniversary is next weekend, I think I will get my wife a little tiny rose in a glass vial. I think they sell them at 7-11, and handy in a pinch if you find yourself in the bathroom with Bobby Brown at a club in Cleveland. Sweet.

it's official, the 97's are coming...



I just signed on to be an official Stromberg Carburetor dealer. I will carry the carbs and parts and they will be available in the store or online. The carbs are now available in fully polished chrome finish now. Bitchin. They also just came out with stainless linkage and fuel rails. I can't emphasize how nice these carbs are, and whatever you do dont try to save a few bucks by buying the Speedway versions, they just plain dont work, and are made out of aluminum in china.

Open House pics-the people









heres the first batch of pics, more to come. Thanks to everyone who came out, and to all of the sponsors who kicked down swag for the giveaways, and builders who brought their bikes to display. The bands kicked ass, this was the best open house party so far, we had about 400 people and tons of cars and bikes in attendance. Also I couldn't have pulled this off without the help of my wife Tiffany, who put in alot of hours, my friend Gordon who helped get the shop in order and the '34 coupe to the point its at, and all of our friends who pitched in on the day of the event, you guys rock. I cant thank you enough.

Hammersmith Leather




my wife Tiffany does custom leather work under the name Hammersmith Leather. She made this killer little toolbag to raffle off on Sunday. Someone will be stoked. The straps can be run horizontally or vertically and it's all hand carved and hand stitched.

Kirk Taylor and his wife Lisa sent some rad shirts our way, and will also be bringing the Johnny Chop tribute shovelhead, which Johnny Built the frame and started the gas tank and a few other parts on before he passed away. Kirk wanted to keep his memory alive by finishing the bike, come check it out this weekend in the builders showcase, the detail work on it is awesome.
