    its hard to work on bikes and the shop at the same time... but I just added a new air compressor. A 4 cyl. dual stage quincy. IT ****IN RULES. It only runs for fourty seconds at a time and has over a hundred gallon tank.

    Heres a close up of my six shooter and 33 ford wheel fixtures

    the frame i picked up is the cleanest ive ever seen... took about 5 gallons of dirt outta the rails with a pressure washer. I also painted up the new rims tripple black. I'm gonna paint the whole car black.

    I need to order my front end kit and I decided on going with a 57 ford nine inch and a 4 speed behind the flatty, im sick of breaking rear ends.

    I ran with the cooler
    It didnt help...

    HaHaHa Danger. Danger.

    That mini bike is hot........ Tuck wants to kill me.

    Everyone was freaking out yelling, "It's gonna blow!"

    I tried to blow it out, but that diddn't work, then Tuck emptied the cooler on it and all the Pepsi's exploded. then I threw some dirt on it, Then the cops called the fire guy on the golf cart.............

    OOPS.

    CAOS at Iola.

    We made signs, my favorite was the one that said,
    "This will get you laid in Canada."

    That sign pretty much will sell anything.

    Lukes truck is great, but it hurts my ***. I had fun driving it around the swap and telling people I just bought it from some drunk ****er from Appleton for $5000 and a case of Shlitz.

    Iola was ruined.


    HaHaHa DANGER. DANGER.

     
  16. Bob, ya shoulda pinched that cops *** for kicks! It was so close to your hand............................... [​IMG]
     
  17. Nice Pix Bro.. Looks like you guys had a blast... Im jealous.. Missed Kevin this year at the 50's.. The shop is looking killer.. I got tons of questions for Bleed on the frames.. wanna see how to get the A frame nice and low... Are those 35 Ford Rims on Lukesters pickup? I was wondering what size tires are on there? Damn, still jealous of all the shots at Iola.. Looks like it was a ton of fun. You guys had good weather too..

    Congrats on the Shop! It was cool to talk to you on Saturday. Your signs kept us laughing all day! "The Furer may have worn this" [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Thanks for refreashing my memory on the Hex. Your car is truly the reason that I fell in love with Shoeboxes!
