    Cool car Lizzie, is that a gas ration letter on the windshield?

    I don't believe it's missing any cotton. I think the washer on the screw bottom to fill the lighter may need replacing though.

    Water Based Pomade specifically.

    I really like Layrite Superhold although I've been going through a jar of Suavecito I got for Christmas when I comb my hair (motorcycle helmets aren't good for most hair styles). I concur that Layrite is much more flexible when it comes to restyling, and I prefer it to Suavecito. Using water...

    Retro gym equipment?

    How about chairs and walls? Although I haven't sent for it yet; Charles Atlas' Dynamic Tension course encouraged upside down pushups using walls to stay upright, and putting one's hands and feet on chairs to do more vigorous push ups. A prisoner named Charles Bronson (he took his name from the...

    Show us your motorcycles!

    Some of these pics have been posted on other threads, but nevertheless I present my baby: a 2006 Triumph Bonneville Black named Ruby. I absolutely adore her, and she adores me. We are never left in the dust, and can pass more than a few gas stations.

    Here are some pics of a 1937 Dunhill I was given roughly five or six years ago by my friends mom. She believed that I lived in the age of Al Capone in another life (one of the highest compliments I have ever received), and felt I should have it. I don't carry it anymore because it started...

    Well that's a bit embarrassing. I guess I should of done to the second page when I entered "motorcycles" in the search bar. My apologies for the redundancy. :o

    Aero Board Racer Ancestors?

    The board track racers were men who were prepared to die. Motorcycle safety was in it's infancy too, and considering the wobbly, splintery, almost fragile nature of those tracks, road rash was likely the least of their concerns. It wasn't unheard of for the track to start missing boards as the...

    My dear sir, I quite disagree. While I would love to have a kick start, I push start her Isle of Mann TT style when I want to flex my muscles and show the superiority of my skill and manliness! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZJUo-tJKlE

    Vintage Car Thread - Discussion and Parts Requests

    Thanks for the compliments. I have already started her, but a massive leak in the carburetors throttle rod keeps her from running for very long. I am currently looking for a decently priced Holley 94 or Stromberg 97 to replace the stock Ford carb. I have decided to do everything myself, and have...

    AtomicEraTom, is that the Fleetwood with the Corvette engine?

    Aero Board Racer Ancestors?

    I always thought the board track racers looked amazing. While researching the sport, I noticed that they did indeed wear very stylish woolen sweaters. These were common among hill climbers as well. Naturally I found one and it has become my regular motorcycle attire. As far as leather goes, I...

    Here are some pics of my British girl: a 2006 Triumph Bonneville Black. I've put a new set of British Customs Sleeper silencers on her since I took these pictures. I adore her, and she loves to feed my passion for fast things ;)

    Hoarders Have To Go.

    Fastuni, you are a gentleman. I disagree with you, but I simply have to commend you on your civility and intellectual approach in what turned into a political debate. I will simply say that I see where you are coming from, digitally shake your hand, and shake my fist at the man who is letting...

    Hoarders Have To Go.

    My problem with a democratic governing body is this: popularity contests only measure the sways too and fro of the majority, while caring very little about the disagreeing minority. Milton Freedman once said something to the effect that in a democracy, if 51% of the population votes for the...

    Hoarders Have To Go.

    Some people are truly despicable. This man is intentionally letting irreplaceable treasures rot simply to laugh at the horror on peoples faces. It almost reminds me of a less entertaining version of Peter Sellers character in "The Magic Christian". In regard to making the detestable action of...

    Vintage Car Thread - Discussion and Parts Requests

    Here is my 1955 Fairlane being loaded onto the flatbed with me in her. I bought her off my Grandpa before he passed away from bone cancer, and am restoring her little by little. She has a 292 Y block from 1958, which offers more horses than a 292 that would of come in her from the factory.
