Old Cars, Trucks and Motorcycles

Jim, I frequent your site to check out whats new in the old car post. Once a gear head, always a gear head. I also think it's a generational thing, we grew up with cars from the 40s', 50's, and 60's. It seem that they stopped making anything classy from the 70's on. When we were kids we played on an old motorcycle leaning against the fence of a neighbors house. It had a leather belt drive to the rear wheel, two cylinders, and looked like an overgrown bike with a long gas tank. Wonder what it was. In any case, motorcycles have been a part of our lives ever since. I currently drive a sidecar rig and use it often to go on shoots. The sidecar is great for gear, and I can get off the road and into places easier than I can with my F-150. Keep em coming, Jim.

I believe this is a Model A because I believe that's what Jim said when I posted it a couple years ago.

I can't remeber if I posted this here a little while ago.

I'm pretty sure you won't be able to see it on your screen, but there are a couple of self-portraits of me in the chrome!

How about an airplane?

Did someone say old motorcycles? Be still, my heart.
My future project, code named Thumper, is a 1968(?) Ducati 350cc single cylinder four stroke.

Dear Mark;
My cousin is a Zundap and Ducati nut. He'll go nuts when he sees these. Man that G Claron is a fantastic lens.
