The Shop


I love this thing ... If I can ever get going on my building this is going to be my reference piece.. of course I'd scale it down a bit.. or would I ?

Could be really cool !

'55 First year back


Well it's been about a year back on the road after about a 30 year slumber.

No major problems so far.. Hoses, replacing the generator with an alternator, overflow tank and some tuning... The old T-10 has a bad 3rd gear so I have to make the "perfect shift" to get it to stay in gear... All and all not so bad for being stored badly for sooo long...

In the process of cleaning up the back wheel radiuses, finding some early 60's bucket seats and moving the battery to the trunk... The big project will be getting the straight axle under the nose...

Flat Tracking


One of the Flat track bikes Grandpa pitted for. The Poster hung for years in GP's shop...

Sent packing


Well cleaned up the roof of the '69 Dodge Crew Cab a.. had her parked down close to the road .. before I could get a sign on her a couple asked if she was for sale? a few days later the wife bought it for her hubby for Christmas... Pretty cool in my estimation.. beats the hell out of a Tie if your a car guy... The proceeds were to be used for a '58 Devin but that didn't quite pan out....
