Flat Track

So my neighbor Tom used to race flat track back in the 60's and 70's and I like talking to him about his racing days and motorcycles. I asked him if he still has any old bikes or racing shit and he, like all old racers, told me he got rid of it years a go. I don't understand why people do this. Anyway he stopped by my place today and showed me something he found in the bottom of a box in the garage. That's a picture of him on a TrackMaster Frame calender. Too cool!!!!

Snoopy Was A Vanner

Who knew that our old pal Snoopy was a Vanner?!!!

Paint Can

I was digging through yet another still unpacked box looking for something and I came across this great can. I forgot that I had it. The picture is a little blurry and it really doesn't do it justice. The art work on the label is beautiful.

Chrome and Lace

Looks like I did it again. Man the project pile is getting huge! How could I pass this up though. Purple paint, lace pannels and chromed out 1970's goodness with the odometer showing just over 1600 miles. Sweet Jesus!

End Result

One of my bikes was used for another photo shoot. This is the end result. I think it turned out pretty cool. I love rentals!

Funky Honkey, Nasty Nigger

This is the greatest record cover ever,PERIOD

Signs

I spotted this sign out of the corner of my eye the other day and I thought it odd that I had never seen it before. It is in the driveway of an apartment building just down the street from me. I must have driven by it a million times.

This sign is steel and is embossed just a license plate is. I wonder if these were made in prisons also. I have come across a lot of old signs like these over the years; Beware Of Dog, No Trespassing, etc. I like old stuff like this, especially when it is still in use. How cool would it be to walk into a hardware store and see the selection of these commonly used signs all in embossed steel. I guess most people don't care about stuff like this....I do.
