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!

Gastank paint by Cay



I do a lot of lettering and striping for my good friends at Wrenchmonkees




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.
