Three years ago I took my daily '73 Sportster apart for a "modest tweak". That escalated mildly, and circumstances changed; Now I'm reluctantly selling this project for $3000 or best offer. Numbers match, and the CA title is current till 2023 - ride it home! It's located in Los Angeles area. Boxed Ultima Ignition, Antigrav battery, Mikuni, Cycle Electric, Durfee, etc. It even has wheels... Fine, I’ll toss in a 16” Ironhead rear wheel with drum brake. And why not buy my lathe-mill combo while you are at it? Take a look at the photos and ask questions if you're considering. Thanks!

A neat project for Vuurbrood; a single stove, full-on Austrian truck with a terrace trailer. It's a whole new body, with aluminium, wood, bronze, stainless and steel, and a ton of bondo, and still we managed to keep the weight under 3500 kg. Which means no truck drivers licence is needed. The entire build is found in the facebook album, and if you'd like to know more, please ask. X.

Mockup halfway trough. From the top of my head, to do: Finish tank. Fabricate rear end. Fabricate seat. Redo seatpost. Weld up frame. Grind welds. Redo welds with silicone bronze. Mount electrics. Fabricate front end. Fabricate handlebars. Fabricate headlight. Fabricate taillight. Fabricate a space time continuum for Diestyboy so he can engrave the s**t out of it yesterday. I mean, it's doable, but I'm not sure if it'll be done at the Cosmic Nozem Motorcycle show in August. But let´s see how far we get.

The mind demands some quiet, so Tin Can Customs is out of office 'till the 30th of May. It has been a few years since the last real holiday. Between then and now I've had the honor to build some cool stuff, (accidently) p**s off some people, meet even more nice folks, make good and worse decisions, but most of all, figure out where this train is heading. The coming months I'll be working on the two wheelers in preparation for a tour du force trough Germany, Belgium, Netherlands and France. Stoked. I'm trying to get my work over to Brooklyn and Yokohama, and Dubai next year - a boy can dream, right? Not a clue on how this will happen. Anyway, it has been a rush so far, and I thank you for that. But now it's time to unwind. See you in June, darlings.
