A little So. Cal time

My dad and I took a little trip to L.A. last weekend. The main reason was to pick up some inflatable bounce houses for a new business venture but, we had alterior motives. If a guy has to go to L.A. why not bring his bike and visit some friends so that's just what we did. My friend Ryan set us up with a place to crash, a killer ride and a hell of a  Moto Monday party. We got to see the Big Daddy Johnson fire up and run down the  road, Luke got his Shovel to fire and we met some great new friends. I'd like to thank every one I met down south for your hospitality once again dad and I had a great time.

Vintage Dreams in full glory 

Progress on the Hodgepodge Pan

Nothing much to say, I shot some paint the other day. Im stuck on a couple of minor pieces but it is taking on a  shape of its own and I'm liking it

I've been busy

Made a stainless sissy bar for a friend's sportster. I think it turned out pretty well

broken taps and drill bits stainless is a bitch to tap 

The Hogepoge Pan

I'm not really into naming vehicles but this one just came to me so, the " Hogepoge Pan " it is. I had to switch primary covers to clear the foot clutch and put it back to chain drive to fit the new cover ( go figure )

My cousin made me a new tool bag and surprised me with it  last weekend

Progress

The '59 is coming back together nicely. I got the tanks repaired and pressure tested today and fixed the brake crossover tube yesterday

Oh yeah this is for the censors

out of it's old home and ready for the new one 

switched to a mechanical lid

found out they cut two inches off of the tube, after paint of course 

Silicon bronze works way better than brass

O.C.M.D. gone wild

I have been out in the shop spinning all kinds of wheels. My '59 project is coming together and the '69 I rewired is off the lift and running sweet.
