Happy New Year

Peace on Earth and all that Jazz.

SMITTEN

It FINALLY f-ing snowed in Tahoe.

PAUSE

While trimming the rear fender I paused to check the stance.

Bars are in

Thanks to Craig at Front St. Cycle.  I sent him the specs he sent me the perfect set of bars.

Mock up

The frame is welded.  Mostly.  

Billetproof 12

Billetproof was...  last Saturday.  Tons of cars. TONS of people. Tons of attitude.  What's with this Rockasilly Kulture shit??  I'm over it.  I actually had a good time though.

Cranbrooks are the new black.

I took this week off to get my F-100 ready for Billetproof, and right before I started priming my new hood my hardtail showed up.  I took some time to cut on the frame for a while, then got back to the hood.  While the hood was curing I mocked up the sporty.  I'm pretty excited.  The Hood looks good too.  

So less than a week and the purple people eater is no more.  It all fell off so fast and now I'm freaking out because I have nothing to work on at the moment while I wait for parts.

Purple People Eater

This is my first Street Rod Liberation Front project.  I was telling my friend Chris the other day that one day when I have a bunch of money I am going to buy old cars that people have spent thousands of dollars on ruining them with billet everything, and spending $10,000 on gay ass purple paint.  Then I am going to take these cars and make real hot rods out of them.  Hence the name Street Rod Liberation Front.  It's gonna be so rad.  I can see it now getting death threats from the National Street Rod Association.  Yesterday some guy told me that the NSRA has a higher class of people.  Higher than who I wonder.  Is he saying that if I spend $100,000 and ZERO hours to have my car built I am a better person than if I spend $5000 and 1,000,000 hours building it myself and then don't paint it purple???  Fuck That!  Anyway back to the project.  It's not a street rod and it doesn't have a bunch of money into it.  But it is purple.  I bought it off of a Hippy in Frisco.  Don't get me started on Hippies.  He took decent care of it and had it forever.  It was pretty unmolested, which is good.  He really thought it was a killer bike.  I couldn't break his heart and tell him all the things I hated about it, which is the reason I want to buy it.  That way it's easier to chop the hell out of it and not feel bad.  Here are the pictures.

WHY

Why start a Blog? Do people really think they are so important that they have to share that importance with the whole world?  I am starting a blog because I broke my foot and I'm board.

BLOG

Here I go. Now I am officially a nerd. I have a Blog. I will try to do my best to update it with cool things that are important or entertaining, to me anyway. Stand back and witness the revolution.
