Different lines....

Today, in my shop these two rides were parked next to each other, gotta love the lines of both them cars.
in front a 67 Buick Skylark and in the back a 47 Chevy Fleetline....

Some paint tryout for the Ford

While on holiday in Egypt I found the perfect lacing material for the roof of my 61 Ford.
this is just a rattlecan tryout on the shopwall.
More to come!

Bo Huff Custom in progress

This is what Bo Huff says is his ticket to immortality....
you should really see this car in the shop...
amazing amount of bodywork done to this baby, hope to see it finished real soon.

These guys rule bigtime

My own Shovel

Been enjoying the thrills of my new ride...the shovel does really good, braking is a bit of a "thing" but that will be taken care of....still gotta do the exhausts, paint and more stuff....
but for now, it's time to hit the road with "the Thing"

Rogues MC Chopper show...

Had a lot of fun, met some great people, saw a lot of kool bikes and at the same time produced a nice anniversary tank for the Outsiders mc in Portland.
You should definately visit this show next year...great atmosphere and lots of stuff you should see.

the Belle has left...enter a new ride

Although I'm already missing my 41 chevy wich was sold about 2 months ago, I found myself a comfortable new ride...one wich gives me the possibility to transport a small booth and some stuff but at the same time, will receive some killer looks by lowering, whitewallls and of course a wild paintjob. most of the work will be done next winter, for now I just wanna cruise my 61 Ford Galaxy Starliner. I guess we'll see you around somewhere this summer.

Case's '46 Knuckle

Quite a bit of guys around here who are into period correct chops & bobbers, One of them is Case from Holland.
He asked me to paint his knuckle, kindof 40ies homegrown style with some racing influences.

Danny Franssen (see earlier post on this blog) came up with the perfect design for the job (and some beautifull sketches of it! Thanx Danny!

Meanwhile the knuck has made his maidentrip and Case is smiling from ear to ear. and so am I for him!

Been quite busy...finally another update.

did the logo and some lettering for the latest Krugger bike,
meanwhile "Half Day" Fred's S&S 50th anniversary won 5th place in Mainz (germany)
beginning of may the bike ships to the USA for the S&S show and maybe some other big shows.

Another Job well done by Fred from Krugger Motorcycle Company, and I was really pleased to have a little contribution to the " Half Day" bike

see more on the Krugger website

the "Belle" has left the building....

Last weekend, David (the new owner) from Geneva came over to pickup my 41 chevy.
Unfortunately had to let her go due to lack of time and money to finish her the way I had in mind.
Felt kindof sad after so many years of fun, blood, sweat and tears.
Me and my Belle had a lot of great times during those years, but it's comforting to know she's in good hands, David is going to finish her in the same intention I had.
I wish him as much fun and pleasure as I had with this awesome car.
still a long way to go, but once she's done she'll make one hell of a nice car.
Also big thanxs to everyone who has ever helped working on the car over the past years...she wouldn't have been the same without all your help.

Honda cb350 salt lake racer

I shot this bike at Bonneville last september,
