    ****'in eh Rene, you taught your primo well. I remember that bike all in pieces like 3 months ago. Hats off to you and another bad *** build. Is this the one that Scott Craig painted? Can never go wrong with straight black!!! Rene, we for sure, have to talk....you ready for the next project?

    That is a sweet bike. I read the Thread on the build and that was impressed.

    I got to say,I got alot out of this project.It was awesome to see someone evolve into a pretty good fabricator.he's since gotten a job at a pretty reputable hot rod/fabrication shop here in whittier,while he attends cl***es toward his goal to be a Fireman.I'm really proud of him.
