A Sunday Drive

My uncle never takes a day off and I think that is because he loves what he does, they say you never really work a day in your life if that is the case. It was a nice Sunday afternoon and he asked me I wanted to go for a drive. I said yeah sounds fun. Before to long i was walking though a swamp, back by a barn; pulling a 71 triumph and an old sears motorcycle back to our truck. Nothing like a Sunday drive.

Sins Of Steel 2014

It's coming, and it's looking bigger then ever, Sins of Steel...

A Tight Ride Home

We get guys stopping by the shop all the time with leads on parts hoards, by when Ron Finch stops by with one you tend to listen. Ron told us he had a friend with a generator Shovel for sale. After some phone calls we made our way to a man named Dave's house. What we found was a generator shovel in a wide tire (300) rolling frame. The only problem was that Dave wanted 8500 for the roller. After Boomer and him dickered a bit we found some parts and asked Dave to though them in on the deal too. He said oh you bros want parts want parts. After a few stair cases later we ended up in Dave's attic, which was full of old parts. Our little shop van was packed floor to ceiling, and the back doors open riding down the road. Three guy rode in the front which was designed for two people. All in all in was a good find and some good times with friends.

The Places We Find Them

b>Not long ago we had bought a 2009 FatBoy, and we don't normally buy a bike that new. So we wanted to move it fast. Boomer called a old friend he said he would buy it right away. I had no idea the friends was part owner of Wolverine Harley Davidson. He was nice enough to give us a full tour of the shop. It just kept going and it was full of bikes and parts, I didn't know there was manly people that rode in Michigan. It was so big he had some cool cars stored there also. While we were there Boomer Found a 68' Triumph, and a 71' Ironhead.

Merf's Chopper Shop

Not to long ago, I got a text from a guy I met over the summer named Merf. He had some parts for sale down at his shop. Merf was always welding on something and working on a shovel, so I couldn't wait to get down to his garage and see what he had hidden in his shop. When Boomer and I pulled in, he had a little garage he was renting behind his house him and his buddy's lived at. Man what a cool shop. He had three bikes him and his friends were putting together. It was every bit of the word of Chopper Shop. Merf was super cool, we had a beer or two with him. Boomer and Merf hashed out a deal and I snap a few photo's of his kick ass shop.

Whats in the barn?

We get a lot of customers that come thought the shop, and boomer always ask if they have any old parts for sale. Steve was no different. So after asking him for the 100th time, Steve finally come on out to the barn. So one night after Boomer and I closed the shop, we jumped the in the van and head for Steve's. What we though would be an easy trip turned in to a drive thought the wood. Steve had a 100 acres of land with a house and barn right in the middle of it all. after the track though the woods we made it to the barn. Steve had 7 bikes in different stages inside his barn. Very cool to see, so after a beer or two boomer mad e a deal and some how I loaded all the parts with my aunt and girlfriend. All in all a cool way to spend a Wednesday night. So always ask "what's in the barn"
