Not sure how I did it, but link works for me.
Take a look in my album, there's 3 vids of the trike, and one of the purple Jeep.

That bike is wild! It looks a little "Mad Maxish" ;D
Tighten it up til it strips, then back it off a quarter turn

Its going to be a hand full.
I think the engine may be a Cummings. I know the builder said it had around 500 HP.

Here's a couple of pics, of both sides of the river mouth, that runs through the middle of my town.

Jeff,
Like Moose said looks like a great place.  It's on my bucket list to visit some day.

Spending time with my grandkids gets in the way of finishing my car but I don't regret it!

Looks like a great place to visit about every 10 months or so during winter here.

Not a cloud in the sky, must have been a great day to cruise.

Your all welcome.
Would be great to have two homes, one in Northern Hemisphere, and one in the Southern Hemisphere.
This way, you would never have to suffer another Winter.  :D

I don't know. I couldn't live there it looks to nice. Waves crashing, plenty of places to park the hot rod, clear skies. Is that heaven?

Kiwijeff

Ha, locals here would be in fits over that, we get lots of rain, our beach is all rocks, stones, drift wood and rubbish.
The river mouth kills, and I've lost several friends, including one of my best only two years ago when his fishing boat flipped coming in.

That said, we have clean water, and no shortage of it. Theres pigs and deer in the hills to eat, we have no venomious creatures, only an Aussy import nasty spider called a white tail.
No ones in a hurry here, cept city folk. We dont get snow this close to the sea, but inland sure does.
Id be well off if i lived and worked in a city, but i love living here, grew up two blocks away from where i live now. Theres not the same amount of work here for me, but i sure am kept busy with lotsof cool stuff.

I plan on putting a red tuck n roll interior in this pile, so brought some red seat covers to get a feel for the color. I hate covers on furniture, but there's a purpose here, so I got what I could find, but they have an ugly logo on em.
Solution was to have some Hudson emblems printed, and sew em over ugly logo.
Moose found me a great pic of the one year only (1929) emblem, and just got back from picking them up.
Now I Gotter find someone to sew em on.  :)

I asked my Mom if she would sew the emblems on the seat covers.
Got em fitted on the weekend.
