"Runs good and drives great"......no..not so much. We about drove the thing into a ditch because of shitty brakes and a steering wheel that wasn't bolted down. Whoever put the gear driver on the motor failed...cam shaft was floating. Damn near bought the thing..buuuut...dude wanted WAY too much for it.
My friend Shawn "Fro Daddy" Meockly introduced me to this band a few years ago. Every Time I Die is the name of the group. If you're into screamo bands, you must check them out.
This dude did it all. Metal fabricator, painter, pinstriper, built guns and knifes. He didn't care about money or the fame, he did it for the love of it. "I make a point of staying right at the edge of poverty. I don't have a pair of pants without a hole in them, and the only pair of boots I have are on my feet. I don't mess around with unnecessary stuff, so I don't need much money. I believe it's meant to be that way. There's a 'struggle' you have to go through, and if you make a lot of money it doesn't make the 'struggle' go away. It just makes it more complicated. If you keep poor, the struggle is simple. " "If I had my way I'd be a gunsmith! I like to make things out of metal, because metal is forever. When you paint something, how long does it last? A few years, and then it's gone!" He even lived in that bus...in the rear was his living quarters..the rest of it was a machine shop...bluing tank, metal lathe..along with metal shavings, cigarette buts, and beer cans.
Only problem with this place....no Pabst Blue Ribbon...lame
Pink is a ladies man...
This was my first hot rod show. Drove down in Pink's 29 Chevy coupe...my back started hurting after about 40 miles, but it was worth it. Got to meet a lot of cool people that weekend.
