Re: curts softail build
Hi curt, i agree i have been real busy snow blowing alot of darn driveways of the white crap. But it does make me extra cash for my bike building projects so can not complain to much.

Re: curts softail build
Curt, those are very nice presents thats for sure and look awesome.
I also just bought a 1997 dodge caravan 7 passenger fully loaded with air conditioning , new winter tires and new summer tires for $3,500.00. We needed a better vehicle that would be able to last and haul wood and parts for bike builds etc, so i really need to get working more to make up for all the cash i spent buying the caravan so i can get back to my bike projects etc.
