Peter's gastank

While at the Jokers' show I outlined Peter's gastank...

Chasing my Scraper buddy Bow's '54 Chevy on the Swedish highways...
despite the rain we had a great ride from Denmark to Göthenburg.
more shots of this trip will appear here on a very irregular base...

KARS

Here's a shot I made a my Scraper buddy Tristan's KARS shop in Holland recently...
check out the website for more of KARS!

Another sticker I love...

Mike from the Draggers cc/mc came up with this design for the Bottrop bikeshow entries...
Thanx dude!

from the spraybooth

Some great paint on the spraybooth's shelf...
had basicly nothing to do with this...but I like the result....

Joshua's Paint...

Spent most of the time this week working on Joshua's chopper...
we added a little winefire red candy to the microflakes...topped with some variegated red goldleaf and gold striping...should garantee some bright sparklin' in the sun...after the final clearcoat that is.

The Joys of great architecture....

Walking my street tonight I ran into some Belgian architectural thing...
kindoff blew my mind on how basic a house can be build.

Silvio's Sportster

Build by Beer, Sjaak & Paul at L&L Choppers in Holland...
Pinstriping, lettering and engine turned silverleaf...in progress...

my old Belle...

So good to know David and Momo are putting some great work in finalizing my old 41 Chevy...
a couple of weeks ago the guys finished the chassis swap.
The original 41 chassis was replaced with a reworked 79 Malibu chassis complete with V8 and new transmission. also a brandnew airbag setup on all 4 corners...already proven to be a perfect combo for some smooth cruisin'...The new and inproved Belle already made the trip to Hangar Rocking in Switserland without any troubles...Big thumbs up to Momo & David...keep up the great work!

Working Hard...

To get the new work & paintshop all setup in my garden...
