True. But even so it's good to have a refresher. I like that one as well; it's in my (huge) file.

Ah, Pandora Pitstop! Like that KTM all but the paint scheme. Not ugly, just doesn't do it for me. Dig the wheels though.

Burris right?

VonYinzer · « **Reply #992 on:** March 03, 2009, 02:14:54 PM »

It was built by so-cal speed shop in 1952 to run at scta land speed events in el mirage and bonneville....... i believe its in the peterson museum now.

Spikeybike · « **Reply #993 on:** March 03, 2009, 02:17:59 PM »

i thought i read somwhere in the hot rod journal , that this was one of Burris's early builds, but i could be wrong

VonYinzer · « **Reply #994 on:** March 03, 2009, 02:47:06 PM »

Do you mean george barris? He may have had a hand in it..... To be honest its been awhile since ive read up on it. Nowadays i just kinda stare in awe at its beauty...

i love this belly lank racer. it was the inspiration behind my paint job.
...and to think it was a fuel tank from an old ww2 bomber.

I've been tinkering in the back of my mind for a long time on a full size, small bore cafe bike.... anyone have any more that fit this category? Bobbers too please.

Its actually from a p-38 lightning. It was t twin engined fighter attack plane that came out towards the end of the war. It was so bad ass, the krauts called it "the forked tailed devil".
If i ever won the power ball, it would be my first STUPID purchase...

Ecosse · « **Reply #999 on:** March 03, 2009, 05:28:15 PM »

That's just about my favorite of the old War Birds. It would have been an honor to be shot down by one of those and die in a fiery ball of melted metal.

I'm glad you re-posted that blue jewel Alan; wish I knew something about it. I'll see what I have in my files.
