Hey tripleX, it really don't get more artistic than that early Sporty tank.

Hi Guys, some really nice looking paint jobs there.
Mine is more like an '07 going on '57, like a worn in but trusty boot.
I must admit I prefer 'go' to 'show', but whatever yanks your chain.
I agree windbag, not the show, the gogo.

Little taste a car on the left reminds me of my 60 Rambler, way back when.

OH, I knew what you were going for on that one. Just wondering how many other people picked up on it.

I have to get ahold of the guy to see how close he is. He told me he's going to have almost 40 hours in the airbrush work alone.I'm in Antarctica right now so it's not too big of a deal if they aren't ready yet. When I get home next week I better see something cool and orange at my house, and I don't mean a glass of juice. I'll be posting some pics, don't worry about that. I feel like a little kid waiting for Santa Clause.

rare to see an amf logo they all seem to have been repainted etc. I guess everybody was rebelling against the moco in those days .Very nostalgic to see this.
My '77 is a survivor. She's still got mint original paint on her.

Here's another very rare oldie I thought I'd share. I was down at my buddy's shop today. He wanted some pics of his bikes for a magazine. Here's shot of his original 1983 XR1000. He bought it new. It only has 7300 miles on it.
