Spindle mount



I was over at my friend Mike Soldano's taking some pic.'s of amps for him yesterday and snapped this one of a project he's working on. Mike is a true Hot Rod guy and an amazing and meticulous fabricator. This Radir is off a T he's building for a friend.

When you're too lazy to ollie



I don't skate much anymore except when Logan and I go to the skateparks, but I still keep up with it all. Here's a pretty neat ad for Sky Hooks from a 1978 issue of Skateboarder Magazine. The boards didn't have the right shape at the time for a good ollie but guys wanted to take it to the air and this was one way to do it. Weird.

Like the show



The Vampire thing had nearly buckled under its own weight until True Blood came along. HBO show that's pretty damn fun. Blood, guts, naked girls, bars, guitars, hillbillies, guns...pretty much covering all of my bases. Check it out.

Josh Higgins is a mad man!



Real Ford flathead. Real long time on the bandsaw. Real long time painting and assembling. Real, real impressive.

T-Bird



I like this era of T-Bird. The factory sure got it right on the design and all it takes to make one swanky is a good lowering and the right width whitewalls. A car like this will get you laid.

Morning



Morning wood, old growth style. The big ones are 40+ feet long.
