    Nice trophies and all, but how the **** is someone on a motorcycle supposed to get that monstrosity home without causing serious injury to themselves or their bike?

    hahaha. Good question. It breaks down into seven pieces via hidden holes for the flags, and reverse attachment for the banners, tank and main shaft.
    I ride, so I made sure it would break down, wrap up and fit in a bag for a sissybar or backpack.

    Then props on a cool design that's also practical. I was scratchin' my head about it before your explanation.

    Thanks bud. All my stuff breaks down (via some sort of hidden attachment) because I know it is heavy and usually ends up in a small car (or it that case a bike.)
    My trophies tend to focus more on engineering than design....LOL

    Better late than never...

    We chromed 16 of these bad boys for a local car show last month. Solid oak base painted black, with 2 conventional etched plaques.

    People just loved 'em. Next year, we are not going to start with high-mileage cruddy pistons. Too much extrta work to get them clean enough for plating.

    A real sentimental one for me. The balloon toss and catch was usually famous for the wet T shirts on the ladies. This was 1982 (the plaque says so:D) so my son was 3. They gave him and his buddy an under pressurized small balloon. It even bounced off the ground once but never burst. They quickly became the sentimental favorites of the crowd and eventually won. The guy that made the trophy did a great job in painting it.

    Southern Md.street rods. One of the largest rod runs in the area back then.
