Greetings to all the new and returning visitors -
I have completed my 1964 C10 ( Below ) and the Z car is coming along and of course I am restoring a series of early 70s Aermacchi mini cycles from HD / feel free to scroll through and see whats happening !

I will make it a point to insert the newest images first so you dont have to scroll through some you may have already seen - Remember though if you want to see where I started you will need to scroll through to the end which is really the start - go figure !
Cheers Tony

1964 Big Window Short Bed Wideside C10

So here are the details and final pics of my truck !

The fresh pics show the outside after I refreshed the entire faded white painted areas including the roof , grill , front and rear bumpers , the side darts and the tailgate lettering .

As you scroll through you can see where I started all the way at the end of the pics !

I built a 5.3 LS LM7 with forged internals and had the heads tricked out with all the LS7 upgrades .

I am using a BTR Truck Norris cam along with Fi tech 750 HP system for fuel and transmission control with 102 mm throttle body . 22 Gallon custom in frame tank with Walbro 255Lph pump and Corvette regulator , heavy duty 4 row cooling system incl Flowkooler water pump and 2 Derale 2100 cfm fans for a total of 4200 cfm.

My 4L60E is built for 750 HP with all Corvette goodies and a small stall convertor / I also utilized an external cooler mounted down low in front. Vintage air and heat Gen 5 Magnum system integrated into dash at outer area - this was an A/C truck so I restored the center RARE plenum and reused it , 800 watt stereo system with bluetooth and CD and I just finished a brand new Yukon gear 3:73 Posi build with forged axles . 3 inch hand built exhaust with high flow cats and 3.5 inch aluminum driveshaft and of course I finished out with my custom interior !

Main wiring system from Painless stem to stern , front and rear sway bars and I also added an adjustable rear panhard bar , 12 inch power front disc brakes , quick ratio power steering . 2.5 front and 3 inch drop at rear with 255/50/20 and 275/50/20 Toyo tires with U S Mag Rambler 6 wheels / 8 inch front and 9.5 rear . This truck has ALL new goodies from top to bottom .

If you are interested in purchasing my truck it will be at $59,995 K CASH and if I sell it it will be marked SOLD immediately . It is a lot of machine for the $$$

Leave your name and number if interested and I will give you a call and Thanks for stopping by -

Check out my 1970 Datsun240Z project below

1970 Datsun 240Z / Series 1

Hello again to al the new and returning visitors - glad to have you stop by for a visit / You can scroll through to see the progress and latest images !

So as I mentioned on the Homepage I am just about done with the Z car project and its almost time to set the car on the ground and take it out for a cruise .

I have had a fun time seeing the car come together and I do have front and rear bumpers installed along with the slot wheels which are coming off for factory wheels and caps later by the owner . It turns out the fuel sending unit had a slow leak so I will get that installed and set it down for the maiden voyage !

I have included a couple of shots of the interior and will have a full final set once it hits the ground and I have it outside!

Talk to you soon Tony

Check out my NEW Aermacchi / Harley

Davidson mini cycles below

1973 - 1975 Aermacchi / Harley Davidsons

I am going to start this section with the restoration of the first of 3 of the Harley Davidson branded Aermacchi mini cycles .

This is the 1974 Z90 and I have done the restoration work on the tank / body work , paint , cut , polish and of course the new decals . I have also restored the oil tank , horn , headlight assembly and I just finished my custom seat upholstery . I chose to keep it close to original for my client and it is genuine leather except the HD panel at the rear which I morphed into the new seat .

Next will be prepping the new engine and restoring the exhaust system and the final few parts /

Enjoy the recent pics I have just added !

Stay tuned and I will share more as I continue to dig into the little pocket rocket !

Thanks again for stopping by / Tony
