It's funny how a picture of that custom trike brings all of that back.
    Up until a couple years ago when Gary retired and moved out of state he lived one block over from me. Plus we both worked in the studios.

    It's not my cup of tea but you have to admit it's unique and captures the essence of mid 60's to early 70's custom mentality. As weird as this sounds, I think it's well worth preserving and shouldn't be cut it up for the few usable chunks left. As time goes forward, bikes and cars from that mercifully short period will become rare and a valuable touchstone to a very bizzare period of American culture.

    Yep, It looks like something built in Ohio. Imagine the babes you could have had with that thing back in the 70's. It screams "tunnel of love" to me.
