The free man.

"Beautiful Buzzard's Can, a true stone chopper if ever there was one. When you have a machine like this, you don't think about looking for another. This is what choppers are all about."

crazy t bucket

I think that's a PBR tap handle shifter, vintage rockabilly rat rod detail right there. The little gold fades and the cut down steering wheel rule...

looks familiar

corvette powered roadster

Neat little roadster, i think he got rid of the throwback wire wheels in the early 60s. Looked even better, can't find a picture. Black interior is kind of unusual for late 50s too

Street Digger

"Chris raps with Ron about the relative merits of a controlled stress frame although she'd rather forget the talk and putt off to the nearest mcdonald's for a burger and a coke." Yeah putt off on a 93.7" stroker that runs 11.90s.

Period Frisco

"The new riding style out of Frisco is "knees up Mother Brown," so the shifter and rear brake pedal were relocated on top of the primary case. Luna balances his feet on a set of freeway pegs, bolted to the primary case behind the rear barrel. Although this arrangement is unorthodox, a lot of people in the San Francisco area swear by it, claiming that it's the hot setup for long jams, making it easy to rest your elbows on your knees."

classic chopper style

Pretty neat little '50 preunit. The compact stock frame/small seat/peanut tank/drag bars say classic 60s and the 8 over fork brings it up to the 70s chop standards. Killer stance...
