Gimme Shelter


Playing music with that last name must be tough...cool cover though.

Progress




Powder coated frame, bracket done, legs polished, oil tank and battery in place.
Still stoked with the racing oil tank made by Kiyo.

SOLD




After so many years I'm finally being able to keep a small stock. So I'll have solid ones ready to go and every other week I'll make a custom helmet based on design that I like...something that I would like to wear and put it for sale here and at the blog store.

This one won't last long...size 57/58 Medium, all BRASS hardware, JK snap strap, black trim, brown satin. $300usd plus shipping. Info: paulo@joeking.com.br

Orange Flowers?

That stage banner with the photo of his Greyhound bus is just rad.

Heard stories that back in the 80s this pan belonged to one of HA in Rio. Also heard stories that at one point it raced some drag races in Rio.  If I'm not mistaken it caught fire when it belonged to my friend Renato back in the 90s. Not 100% certain about all these stories...but they do sound cool.
