The BONES BRIGADE

How Fun! - Just realized that my old skateboard hero Stevie Caballero is making Hot Rod and Bike art these days...I actually still have this old Powell "Tail Cut" Caballero standing as a "art pice" in my hall way. The board is from my Skating Hay-Days in the late 80´s.. .Only god knows why, I painted Zebra stripes over the cool Cab dragon graphic...dam... But Hey! Zebra´s was properly hot back then... The board is equipped with NOS Tracker Trucks, and purpel Street Bones Cubes...uuhhhh sweet 80´s


Here´s the Caballero picture i "bloged" into. Check out his stuff - Here.

Stewart Warner


Talking about Stewart Warner and Old style Speedo´s - I made this Painting (Acrylic and Oil on canvas H55 x 50 cm) for my good friend Johnny´s birthday. Thank´s again Old Stewart for the inspiration.

Speedo - Stewart Wannabe

Wanted a speedo for the Panhead, so my friend Allan (KillerBobbers) gave me a Tombstone speedo. I made a new 1-12 Mph graphic and printed it on a folio, mounted that on the back side of the glass, painted white, and piele of the folio. The base plate is painted metallic brown. I kept the needle 100% plastic orange... Pure Old Style Stewart Warner Wannabe ....Custom Custom hell yeah...

BOARD TRACK SPEEDSTER

Ok! - Last week I was on Google, surfing Vintage Board Track Bike etc. And then! - This picture shows up -

this is just 2 cool 4 school... I feel like that guy - I am that guy!... but I don´t have a Race Bike like that guy!... Immediatly I realized, that I needed to make a cool vintage racer for the streets of Copenhagen - now today. Our city is actually one of the worlds best City´s for bicycling.(check Copenhagenize) and learn why. N.Y, London etc. is trying to copy our bike policy big time, I can only recommend that. It´s Green it´s healthy, and there´s a lot of chicks in the bike lane...


PROJECT: SPEEDSTER Race Track Bike #1

What to do!? - I track down the coolest Bike shop in Copenhagen! That shop happens too be 2 streets away from me. Nice.... And it´s even called Track Bike Shop. Mostly they do Fixies etc. Nice trend ( if your acrobatic!) and if you like colors - ( And we do that...) They sold me some real cool parts, for my build. But no Fixie hub, thanx! - this is a "Speedster" project.... I took an old Viva lightwaight frame,(Good for a beginner) chopped everything off, mounted Velocity rims, Soma drop bar, and San Marco Regal suede seat (uhhhhh) nice one. But most important! the rear hub i a traditional Sram T3 (3 speed hub) the front drive is a huge mother Fu**** 52T and 16T on the back. That makes the drive on the bike very heavy and fast. The trigger shifter is a classic Old Style Sturmey-Archer - of cause....

This paint job was Rattelcans in the back yard. A colors a mix of New race and Old Style.

MMMMMMMM MOTIP. Shake and Inhale....


Thank´s for the hat by the way. (Track Shop)

Everything is hand painted on the frame. No stickers - No folio!

SPEEDSTER Race Track Bike # 1

FINE!

Actually! I´ve done quite some research on new and old bikes, and frames. I honestly! I wonder why no one "out there" is making any cool retro inspired frames. Even expensive frames are mostly one color with a boring folio logo. Come on!!!!.... Let´s do some crazy stuff on those frames with pinstripes, nice done details and everything....

SO! if you´r a big time Bike manufacture, and you´r hard on selling the shit, but don´t know that Red & Yellow makes Orange, and that goes fine with green... well - drop me a mail...-

That´s it folks!

These tanks is from Sara Ray I spoke to, nice work, super detailed, perfect colored. American Kustom style, Cool with a twist of kitch



This stunning tank, was at display in the Glory store - I told them that I would be very careful, and it was no problem to bring such a fine little old painted Wosel tank with me in the handbagage to denmark... Yes - but No..... wish it was mine, big time...


If you ever are near 4659 Hollywood Blvd check out the store GLORY. store. Absolutly fantastico, we need stores like that in stead of all those boring Coffee shops, we have on every corner here in Cph.




This is from the Mooneyes meet. You can drive these Rod´s every day to school, work or shopping. They don´t use more gas than a Yaris, and they are all street legal...And you even do the colouring yourselv.

Experiments with my new 0000 mac wizard brush.


My 1949 Panhead Bobber as it looks today.



When I put a Keihin CV cab on my bike i wanted a Oldstyle logo on it. Unfortunately there don´t exist a cool oldstyle logo so i made this up. This is painted with help from a Mac cut folio. that´s why it looks to much like a sticker....




Caltex and STP logo hand painted. Painted with hand cut folio (air brush) and Motip spray paint.


I painted this Gold and sand, with a home invented orange scallop. The Edelbrock Equipped and Caltex logo was hand painted. No sticker no folio.. Old school style




My Panhead waiting for new colors.




This 3,5 gallon tank I rattelcan painted and pinstriped. The green logo was hand cut in folio and painted on.




I rattelcan painted most of this 3,5 gallon, but also a little pinstriping on the scallops and a 24 carat gold logo was added under the 5 layers of clear coat. All hand made.








One more tank I made in Old style look. 1930 Bird graphic on a 3,5 gallon.





This tank i´v painted, patinated and made it rust, before it got a layer of wax. The tank was new.
