Satan as a hood ornament

Found this hood ornament from the late 20´s early 30´s on Ebay a while ago. I had plans for it for one of my future projects. Included a Lincoln V12 in a 32 frame... But it became to expensive for me. I could not afford to pay nearly 400$ for it.
but it´s the coolest ornament I have ever seen. Wish I ever find another one again.

Harley factory race machine from the 30´s

I have visit an old man a couple of times. In his basement stands this Harley.
It has an VL frame and it looks like it is a VL enginge cases, but check out the engine serial number. MXK 2525 does not sounds like a normal bike.
even the heads are different. Dual exaust is a killer!
Take a look at the springer. it´s a hybrid. It got´s the VL ibeam legs but the top part and front leg of the fork is J or JD.I have only seen this fork on some pics on internet before. This is the first I seen live. Might be the only one I see aswell!?

In the moment I took these shots I must have looked like a retard, standing there with a open mouth and didnt care of anything else exept how cool this bike are.
I forgot to take a pic of the hole thing ,cought in the moment I only took pics of details. Maybe next time I visit there will be more things on this bike.

BlueBird 1935

Sir Malcolm Campbell (11 March 1885 – 31 December 1948) was an English racing motorist and motoring journalist. He gained the world speed record on land and on water at various times during the 1920s and 1930s using vehicles called Blue Bird.

He set his final land speed record at the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah on 3 September 1935, and was the first person to drive an automobile over 300mph, averaging (301.337 mph (484.955 km/h)) in two passes.
Just remember, this is in 1935!!

He died after a series of strokes in 1948 in Reigate, Surrey, aged 63 years.
He was one of the few land speed record holders of his era to die of natural causes, as so many had died in crashes.

No words needed.

Coffee at Corner Part 2

Corner is building this flathead chopper and will soon be up for sale. I am a big fan of flathead engines. I dont care if they got 1 cylinder or 16. As long as it has the valves in the right place I´m happy.

In another corner of Corners garage stands another flathead, a 1937. I just love the patina. Corner was mumbling something about it will not be a bobber it will just look like it lost some parts... You are not allowed to talk about bobbers in his chopper garage. If you do you know it has to "stävjas".(restrain)

Un chop a 1932 roadster top

Last weekend I spent time travel to some of my buddys in Dalarna in Sweden.

I spent the best sunday in years at Ron´s plays. We drank beer and spent a hole day in his garage. We rised the top irons he chopped to much some days earlier for he´s original 1932 roadster.
The top irons was to low so the hole top was leaning back, so I helped him rise it up 1 3/16 inches.

What is better to spend time talking shit and and cutting in real Henry Ford steel for a whole day?? Not much.

Thanks bro for a nice weekend.

Coffee at Corner Part 1

This weekend I spent some time travel around in Dalarna in sweden.To visit some good old friends and see whats going on in their crypts.
I invited myself on coffee to Thomas aka Hörnet(Corner) to see what he´s up to.
This guy allways has something new going on in his garage. In a corner(ofcourse) I found this old -38 knucklehead chopper. You got to love the mouldings on this one. It sits just right. Corner, do we see you running it this summer?

Happy Birthday Fucker

Merry X-mas to you all.

Flathead Bobber

Ford 1932 aluminum oil pan

I Found this old original 1932 Ford oil pan in Norway a year ago.
It was cracked and very badly welded.
Brought it to my welder, Fjus. He always know how to fix these old aluminum parts.
I cut out the bad parts and let him do the welding. After many hours of welding it was in one piece again.

I do now understand why they only had this aluminum pan 1 year in 1932. it was to week.

But it had been cracked over the starter and was missing its cup to cover the bendix gear.
I was looking in my garage for something to fill the hole. I found an old piston from my 1943 Harley 45, it had its right diameter!
we lathed out the piston and then welded it to the pan. It looked pretty good after it was all done. Recycling Harley parts into Ford!

Then it was hours of grinding before I polish it all up.
Soon it will be mated with my 1936 21 bolt flathead engine with polished 1933 aluminum heads and a Edelbrock sling shot intake!

More to come soon.
