Decklids For Everyone

Thanks to Micky for letting me borrow his Brookville Model A deck lid ( on the left) so I could reverse engineer it and make a few skins up (right side). They aren't perfect, but they are really close and will only get better the more I fab up. Gonna be nice to peddle a few of these at the Big 3 next weekend!

Touch Up Paint

Well, with the much needed help of O.C Gabe at Orange Circle Tattoo I got my first line work session on a long awaited revision done last night. I can't believe I waited nearly 12 years to get going on this cover up. Ironically enough, I'm not the only one who's been waiting that long to do this tattoo either. According to Gabe, he has done quite a few back pieces in his career. But after being here in Southern California, the "Hot Rod Mecca" for almost a decade has not had the opportunity, until now, to do a "Hot Rod" themed back piece since coming to America from Hungary.
The next step will be a couple more laser removal sessions on a few specific portions in order to help make the old art disappear, and help complete the new art without a trace of it's past. Next on the list for this tattoo will be adding a Model A pickup underneath her to give the appearance that she is sitting on it's hood. I can't wait to get that going and really give this makeover a good Hot Rod look.

James Stewart Funny Business

OK, So I hi-jacked this from James Stewart, Supercross and Outdoor MX racing legend's  twitter account. First question I have...Is that gold chain on this guys neck for real or just part of the T shirt design? Since homie flies everywhere in a private jet I am assuming it's the real thing. But lets be honest, it looks like a 2 foot section of VIP barricade rope. I'm guessing one of us could build 2 or 3 nice Hot Rod A's for the cost of that hardware.

So the reason I posted this is because we have the NHRA Winter Nationals going on this weekend in Pomona and I will be in attendance with the little lady.  Apparently someone over at Napa Racing is pumped on JS7 and here we have a photo of James perched up in Ron Capps funny car. Are you jealous? I am....
