Hey,
Sorry I posted twice before my intro- I suck-
Let see.........
I live and work in downtown (the heights) houston. I'm married to a fellow hamber, jabber. I have a 52 chevy that we are going to chop together in April. I am blowing too much money at VLV and the lone star round up so the projects had to be pushed back a month or so. We own a 65 caddy hearse that desperately needs bags. I have a 39 Dkw and a 65 bsa 650 (hardtail) and i am making one bike out of both. Im using the tank, springer, pegs etc on the bsa since the dkw's measly 250cc was part of the frame rendering it unusable. Ive never built a bike before so Im just kind of wingin it.
My old man has a 40 Ford, but thats his project and I cant claim any of it as my own. Damnit.
When I am not in the garage workin on projects I can be found at punk/rocka/pychobilly shows drinking to excessive and causing too much hell for my own good or at roller derby practice-

Welcome your mcnastiness, sounds like cool projects. Post progress shots as you go. Personally I prefer the real thing despite the cost, than Mr.Hand :D
