Vintage Nazi Aircraft


Restoration going on at a hangar out in Suffolk.

Parts Rollin In





Picked up a complete Camaro sub frame for the pickup last weekend for a steal. Coils, sway bar, pretty much everything. Going to replace the ball joints, tie rod ends, etc. and probably blast it and get it cleaned up and then start hacking up the frame before too long.

Like these guys.


Pop Pop's Old RayBans


These were my Pop Pop's sunglasses.

I saw the case sitting in the console of his car the last time we got to hang out and asked about it. It had to have some history behind it. I hadn't really paid attention at the time but it was the case to the shades he'd been wearing all day. Some old Ray Bans that he bought used from a guy for $20 back in 1945. The gold frames are so thin, I don't know how in the world he'd never broken them in the 65 years he wore them. The lenses have one small crack in them, but they're glass, unlike the plastic shit they make today. Since I admired them so much, he told me I could have them when he passed away. Didn't expect that to be less than a month later. I've since worn them a few times, but I'm too scared I'll drop them and either break em or lose them so I just keep em in a safe place instead. I could probably write a whole story or get deep on the significance here, but I'll just leave it as that.

Unauthorized Promotional Materials




So I was bored one day and decided to make up some nice promotional pieces to help a couple of my buddy's market themselves. They were well received and I was complimented on my work and creativity but for some reason they won't pay me for usage rights.

Enjoy.

Negril.






7/21/10


Sanded the hood and fenders down just enough to get the surface rust and a couple gashes out of the sheet metal. Then sprayed just enough Krylon semi flat black to keep the rust from coming back.

Taking some pics by the RR tracks




I only stepped on two needles and sideswiped one hooker on this hot and steamy Saturday.

Del McCoury Band at Town Point Park

Jess backstage with the man himself.



Got there late of course, but got to catch about 45 mins of bluegrass legend, Del McCoury and his band.

More Scoot Pics



Couple updates, new custom bars Marc made me.
