The Chopper Compendium

Sounds like he moves at my pace...

Oh yeah, got an email yesterday from Axtell, they don't have the big bore pistons in stock and don't plan to order anymore because they are so rare. Crap. I can order custom size pistons, but I've heard (from the ancient archives of mythology and legend) of guys turning down Chevy pistons to use. I ...

Valve seals still haven't arrived yet.
Checked into installing compression releases. I don't think there is enough room to put them in a conventional location.

Amazing.

I noticed a combo wrench next to your frame tube in a few pics, always there, whats going on I'm thinking.

A lot of cool rides there, congrats on the trophy, well deserved.
Haven't been to Raton since the early 70s.

Cool space there, plenty of room to maneuver.
I'm organizing my place, trying to make room to work.
I'm a real packrat, so it's a big job.

I remember when you were posting your build log for the Knuckle. Impressive what you accomplished with no shop and few tools. Came out beautifully too! You were hammering out the seat pan on the ground with a mallet, IIRC. :o Have you entered in any shows there? I bet you get a lot of kudos for it.
