Tangerine Dream

Damn Paparazzi...

Pix by Ryan Dunn

Couple'a nice hard tails.

Accept without Udo?

Yep, and it works! I'll be seeing them when they pass through.

Finally, a good pic of my paint thanks to Rondi...

...I'm diggin' how the paint is reflecting in the mirror. I really need to new camera.

Ready to rock, and poundin' the pavement at 10:00AM

If you see me, hand me a beer...

Tidying things up...

Never get rid of old pieces parts. After I removed the 14" apes, and installed the bars that Slim and I made, the brake line, and clutch cable were too long (see older pix below). I was able to re-route the clutch cable, problem solved. I found my OEM brake line and re-bent the hard lined portions, problem solved. $ saved on parts= more $ for PBRs!

30 Buses

With a little help from his Bastard Brethren, Marshall's Quad Cam is moving right along. Even unfinished it looks like it's ready to jump!

My first ever attempt at a vid and editing...

Locked in the shop for two days= Born Free Bound!

...and an empty beer fridge. The family was out of town for the weekend, so I took advantage and spent every waking moment in the shop, living on PBR's and frozen pizza.Yep, the Hellbilly DeLuxe is back on the road, and Born Free bound! It's still not done, but at least it's rideable again. I'll try to post a vid tomorrow after work, CTFS Fuckers!

Progress! I'm trying to get it rideable by Sunday PM.

I buttoned up all of the electrical today, added green (n) and purple (oil) LEDs, and a weatherproof toggle (on-off) to the top motor mount (that I modified a couple months back), and wired everything up.





...also added an LED to the license plate frame.

All that's left to do to make it rideable now is mount the tank, and tweak the carb. I need to hit the hardware store for some misc pieces parts.

My fav bike from the 90's...

...the Babylon Taxi NYC. These pix were on the wall in my garage when I was building my first ground up custom Evo rigid. The model wasn't bad either.

Couple samples from the RBRR10

Nose Gunner= BRASS BALLS!

WTF! No Rust, No Satin Black???

Nice to see a paint job for a change. Hell, I don't even mind the red rims so much.

'65 Mustang Pool Table

Mine would have to be white with blue GT stripes on the lower rockers.








Oh, and before the Ford Preservation Nazis start sending the hate mail, it's completely constructed from replica parts. Here's the link http://www.mustangpooltable.com/

65 Years ago Richard's Dad shot this film along Kalakaua Ave. in Waikiki capturing spontaneous celebrations that broke out upon first hearing news of the Japanese surrender. Kodachrome 16mm film: God Bless Kodachrome, right? He was able to find a outfit (mymovietransfer.com) to do a scan of this ultra rare footage.
