Its not like that bro, it's the week before the race. Ive noticed it has been slow around here and we are only talking about the "gathering" and "Race weekend" After that everything will go back to norm for a awhile

Atleast in my opinion.....

The Day cruiser is looking good , keep it up and get r done

cruisers looking good, you planning on bringin it out to parker?? and keep the pics coming

« **Reply #14 on:** April 09, 2008, 09:22:42 PM »

Tripey looking logs, I like them. Daycruisers are cool too, you have a slim chance of sinking in the chop at Parker.

How badly did he charge you for the upholstery? It looks great! I'll have the wood work done and then need to have the wood covered.
