    Your last mod for a friend pushed $5000 if I remember correctly.

    Dude you spend an insane amount of cash on pre-modded cases, but holy S¨?T you do it in the best possible style. It may take a while but you always come up with the goods.

    You and MNPCTECH are the pre-mod masters us others cannot touch. I'm signing up for this one....subscribed!

    woot I was right, man I loved his work and still do he made some of the best looking old school bikes ever and I remember watching the biker build off which was one of the last bikes before his passing and being able to watch the artist at work builing that amazing bike was simply awesome, great mod so far by the way cant wait to see the rest.

    Thanks one and all..
    All Harlrey Davidson parts are expensive, and custom parts by elite-HD-fabricators are even more-so.. With that said (to me) worth every penny.. I love the work they do, it inspires me. I honestly think that what they do for bikes is what we do for computers..
    Indian Larry was perhaps the best "old-school" builder on the planet. Also a great success-story. A guy who was a drug-addict and convicted felon..He finds something he does well and turns his life-around. His addiction became motorcycles. He died doing what he loved, can anyone ask for more than that?
    The project is not a tribute to him, but insead a tribute to all my favorite builders..my inspiration..
    the list:
    Indian Larry
    Eddie Trotta
    Arlen Ness
    Martin Bros
    Detroit Bros
    Paul Yaffe
    Jesse James
    Exile Cycle
    Twisted Choppers
    here are a few pictures of the latest batch of chrome and polished Alu:

    Very nice, you have amazing patience, my mod's consist of, cut a hole add an extra fan, add an extra PSU, then slap some lights in and watch it go.

    I'm currently loosing patience trying to polish up a steel HP case..

    This sounds a little "salty".. You are reading the wrong PL if you are looking for a "quick-fix"---"slap it together" project.
    You have posted countless-times in my other PL's.. You know my-style. I will be working on BR well into 2007...
    "Do something with with it"... O-ya, that I can promise.... :thumb:
