grabowski's latest work in shifter knobs

norm is on the way to sema with a load of new skulls and thought everyone would like to check them out!

first the new gear head, gears are made from maple.

and the last with the billet eyes and jaw is unbelievable.

 

Awesome!
So how many hundreds of dollars do this go for?

 

I'm headed to SEMA for the first time this year. Those are deffinately pretty slick. I'll make a point to check em out in person.

 

I've always been a fan of Norm's work, but that last one is off the hook.


Doc.

 

Now that's art

 

Absolutely Stunning. I can only dream of owning a peice of work as fine as those.

I know the ole Polack get between $1500 and $4000 for a custom cane so I would think the gear shifts would be in the $500 and up range..

Anyone going to SEMA be sure to take some pics and get the real info on the cost of the skulls

And to think some day we all will look that handsome....

 

his skulls are 650.00 and up, the first one (the table model) will be for sale at sema for 1650.00 i think.

the last one is in outer space on price but you should see the work that went it to it!

 

I'm happy with mine! Norm is truely an artist.

 

Try thousands for the aluminum one. Talked to him about it at a show last weekend..........wow, lotsa work! And one helluva cool old guy too!

 

You guys just gave me an idea. I'll ask Normie-poo to make one for the B-32 Bomber with a leather helmet and goggles.

 

lol that would be cool .looks like he would have done one like that by now.I'd be afraid to leave my car parked at a diner wondering if someone was stealing the shifter knob.piss on the car ha ha ha

 

"I was just making a right, officer, when my shift knob buried its fangs in my hand and I drove right through the busload of nuns and orphans..."

 

I think that should be "El Polacko"...or at least that's what Woo-Woo calls hisself on his outbound answering machine message.

 

Bob, where are you gonna be at SEMA? I get Thurs. to myself so I'll be hauling ass through the halls looking at stuff.

 

I must be the only one who doesnt like them.

 

Not the only one. Obviously a lot of good work goes into them.

I mean, I wouldn't be caught with one of those on my Hot Rod, but they are pretty cool to look at and admire how much talent it takes to make em.

 

Absolutely.

 

What are those things made out of? Looks like loads of melted wax or something, or at least some of those that I have seen give me that impression.

That last one is pretty damn nice looking, though.

 

Hey Larry, you mean something along these lines?

Websters New Riverside Dictionary defines "norm" as "...considered typical...".

There has never been anything "typical" about Mr. Grabowski.

Amazing craftsmanship and artistic vision in all that he does.

Man, that detail leaves a lot to be lived up to! My 'Grabowskiesque'(new word?) knob...

 

Damn-WOOD?!? Like they were carved?!? That's extra crazy, man!

 

Have I told you lately that I hate you? Guess I'll hafta stick with the P-51 Mustang stick and grip.

 

Wow... if those are all made out of wood, then that makes them all the more impressive.
