- Biography
- If it has wheels, I gotta tinker with it. From a '60 Bugeye Sprite to a '31 Ford hook and ladder, an AMC Sportabout with a Vette engine and sidepipes, a Mazda Protege with a Garrett T3, riding Route 66 on my '81 Honda Nighthawk (now that was a great bike!), to a '29 Chevy stakebed truck to my '94 hatchback, I love to take 'em apart and put 'em back together again.
