'32 Ford sculpture to benefit Jason Graham

Jason Graham's Hot Rods was recently ripped apart by a fire.



Here's one of the many cars destroyed...from this:



To this:



John Jackson from NotStock Photography flew up to take aftermath pics, and he's selling prints to raise money for the shop's owner. The bottom picture above is one of the examples.

The pictures are really pretty amazing. They had already cleaned the building and moved the cars around, but he still got some great shots. Check them out, buy them here: Prints to benefit Jason Graham

There is also a Facebook Group set up to help.

I've set up an auction on the HAMB for one of my hot rod scultures...this '32 Ford.

Two new Harley sculptures, and some cool shop shots

For the last couple of months I've been doing mostly commissioned work, along with the YOTC bikes. Last week I decided to weld a couple of sculptures for myself, for my store.

Click on any of the pics to get a bigger version and to find more photos.

Th first one is a Panhead, named "Nobody" after Terrance Hill's character in the old spaghetti western "My Name is Nobody." Cool movie to check out if you've never seen it.

You can buy the bike here: Bike #120 "Nobody"







The second one is an Ironhead chopper called "Hustle," available here: Bike #121







And while I was building "Hustle," my buddy Matt got some cool shots...

Bike Number 100, Harley Knucklehead "Nail in the Coffin"

Year of the Chopper #11 is also the 100th bike over all that I've built. The first 4 were made as gifts 5-6 years ago when I was first learning how to weld. The last 96 have all been made since the beginning of 2008.
