Snowboarders n bikers

Snuck up to Lake Tahoe for some snow. While getting some liquid courage in the lodge saw this guy wearing a hoodie which I thought was a death machine print but lo and behold a snowboard company made the hoodie with a similar logo.

What in the world!!!!

Since it has been awhile and I haven't posted, I felt this jem was worthy of posting. Once again spotted in hell town a interesting combination. Looks like the professor has a new ride so he can go "Back to the future, Marty Mcfly"....only in hell town.

Vist to merc Johns in riverside, ca

Got lucky enough to look around the backyard of merc John today and immediately was blessed with this bad ass truck. Now I gotta get off my ass and get to work on ol' orange

House down by the ocean

One of my favorite homes. Getting reaquainted with san diego. Even made some time to stop by the hot rod havoc world headquarters and see what Arie has been up to and lunch at Tinas deli.

Lost in texas

Lately I have been seeing more of the us, in particular Austin, Tx. I found that Austin is quite a fun city. From seeing Muder city devils and slayer to wondering how the sword got stuck in the ceiling. Beside the sword also wondering where four cases of wine came from. A diverse little city with a character all its own. Found a little spot to hideout called "yellow jacket social club" full of bearded hipsters ridin bicycles. Finally spotted some motorcycles saving the day. Welded on tailsection and matching firestones caught my eye on this little honda.

Projects everywhere

Another hemet hero another project. Coffeys find make him an offer he cant refuse.

New shoes

Got actual front brakes relined. Courtesy of L & M Friction in Riverside, Ca. Now if only I could find the rest of the parts.

Goodbye for another great one.

Jim Bouchard, devoted husband, father, and so much more. Attended his services and was reminded of his quick wit and penchant for handing out nicknames to those he liked. Great friend of my moms. He always called me "rusty" which years ago I never got till my mom explained it wasn't bad, I just had red hair. You will b missed greatly. This was his bitchin' car that could always be seen cruisng the streets of Helltown. The streets of heaven will never be the same.

Bob and the stock 750

While doin' a little pub crawl last weekend I got to meet Bob. As I pulled in to O'sullivans irish pub here in Helltown I was asked if that was a 750. Then the 60 something guy told me he was going to drop off his dad who must have been at least eighty. 10 minutes later Bob shows back up to the pub on his stock 75' cb750, bitchin' stock bike with a cool tail section. We hada couple beers then we left he bar for a little put. Thinking bob was gonna ride with us we headed out the way he suggested but when we made the turn to head to the next spot Bob kept going. Nice to meet you Bob maybe next time.

How it all came together.

Sketched this out just after getting the frame for my bday. Still on the wall of the shop. A grand vision of denver dancing in my head.

Cruisin' Grand

Decided to head down to Escondido Friday night to check out the cruise night. T bucket night found one with twin turbos. On the other end of Grand av. Found this sweet 2 door bel air.



Still neat little cruise night could use a custom bike or two.

Hemet Packing Co., we pack em' tight

While the man was away eating saurkraut and struedel, I managed to yank the next project out of the field where it had sat for the last twenty five years. This truck was my grandpa's gold watch when he retired from the Packing company here in hell town. This truck used to pull about 6 little trailers filled with oranges from the groves and transport them to the packing company. Alot of work ahead but the word is it was driven to where it was parked some time ago so with luck she will run again.
