Steve built this one in the late 70's. Him and his brother actually built the frame. When he twists the throttle, you can't keep up with him!!

LOL, actually, my bike does have the sissy bar. My wife rides with me every chance she gets so I have to keep her happy (so I can stay happy) ;D haha The black bike next to the chopper belongs to Crazy Wayne, here's mine.....

OMG! It's beautiful! I always wanted my own but, it would have to be a Harley and I have a toddler and hopefully another baby on the way soon so...it's not in the budget. My brother owned a Heritage Soft Tail when they first came out. Here's a pic of his. My scanner is down so, I had to use my webcam. My step-dad and my mom ride on this guy. I'll have to post a pic of my pastors old Harley. He used to be the President of a pretty bad biker gang. He had a beard down to his waist and sported 20" ape-hangers on his Harley. I always thought that sissy bars were just that. They made a bike look like a sissy bike. My opinion changed after riding on a bike with one -vs- without like I always did. I'll take a sissy-bar anyday!

The family that rides together ;D Those are some beautiful bikes darlin!! Here's my mom on her bike (paint job by me). The ugly guy in the middle is me with short hair (I look like the messiah now) lol...... This one belongs to her husband (also painted by me ;D ), I've been painting bikes and cars for 17 years, don't do as many as I used to though.... Almost forgot, this was my wife's bike. She didn't ride it too much anymore so I sold it to my boss. (She wants a chopper now) ....

I finally got to see your webpage. Wow! My dad used to joke that I should have been a guy because I love working on cars. My dream has always been to restore a street rod. I have no desire to build a kit car. I want the real thing. I used to work for the CEO of MBNA Bank and his big passion was vintage cars and street rods. I got to ride in them whenever they came back from auctions. He still has two personal garages with 40 cars in one and another 20 + in the other. He even has one of the original Harley Police motorcycles. I could just sit in there and drool! LOL! One of my favorites to drive was a street rod that is very similar to your yellow one w/flames. Talk about burning rubber! Anyway, your website is awesome.

Thanks!! I haven't updated it in a while, for some reason it won't let me upload anymore pics. My purple 1930 Chevy is my newest rod, I traded the yellow coupe for it when my family out-grew it. I built the coupe completely, even built the frame out of 2x3 square tubing with alot of help from a good friend. In return, I helped him build one just like it, even yellow (just didn't have a 6:71 blower like mine did). The purple 1930 Chevy is really growing on me, the body is an original rust-free body out of Arizona, it even has the original wooden floors stamped "Fischer Body Corp". When I get some spare time, the floor will be replaced with a steel one and the original seats will be replaced with something a little more comfortable. How do you like my Ford taillights on my Chevy? ;D (I'm a pic-post whore) lol

My dad is rebuilding an old 1973 MG my daughter thinks it's gonna be hers when she turns 16 - it won't be ready in 6 years time - he's too meticulous. He had it painted Yellow! - he had 2 red ones back in 1976 and took parts from one to put on the other... I like the purple..... Randy you calling that purple ride "Ammy"?

Unreal! I wish I could do that kind of thing. I can barely draw a stick figure!

I can't draw stick figures (can't draw a straight line) ;D Flames are easy, they are just a bunch of curved lines and don't have to be perfect like stripes do. I did SS stripes on a 69 Z-28, it was the hardest paint job that I ever did!!
