One down , one to go .... part 2

Yeah, that’s the brake on my later picture, originally had one of those little custom ones we called hill holders, for when you had to stop on a rise. Four of us pulled up at a train crossing one time and had to stop. An old couple pulled up behind us and the old man was checking us out. He let us roll back against his bumper until the train got by. His wife was bending his ear, but he just smiled and waved when we took off! Got a good story about those 25’s, but don’t want hog your time. Wayne

That is awesome man.

Go ahead with your 25 story man , I’m not one of those people that get their nads in a bunch if you veer off topic , hell , I’m the one who brought up the 25 story . People that think you’re only supposed to post about how great their work is on their thread , is someone you really wouldn’t want to have a beer with , I mean really , I’ll have a beer and a conversation with you , … but only if we talk about me , LOL . My old man used to tell me " Son , there’s only two kinds of people in this world , folks you can have a beer with , … and then there’s a holes " .

Thanks JR

That’s why I like this forum, everybody is real people who have actual things to add. One of the younger guys came in the bar one night. He had just got a .25 automatic and was showing it off. My buddy said let me see it, is it loaded? He says yeah, where my friend emptied it into the floor and says it’s not now! The young guy says, those were the only bullets I had! We dug one out and it was only in about a1/4" in. Told him a gun didn’t make you somebody. He turned out good.

Awesome work. The proposed weapon additions sound great.

Might try to find pictures of Terminator’s shotgun holster on his bike. Wayne

Nice! Particularly like the way the headlight and tail lights have finished up! The various weapon holders, bags and bottles all look really good.

Nice little dinghy you’ve got there too!

Thanks Nick . Nimrod , Erwin , I’ve got these dogs which I’ll start using in my in progress pics instead of the usual suspects , more likely with them , very limited figurewise in this genre . First two dogs are from SOL Miniature Factory , then Masterbox Marine scouts . Wanna try a brindle pattern on the SOL dogs .

I’d use thi guy but his pose is a little too laid back …
