Howdy y'all ...I'm gribbs in Oshawa with a 3 year long Apache build...should be done by June this year. I'll probably ask more questions than have answers, but I'll do my best to help anyone out.
Also, I heard about the tragedy in the ELTA club and give my condolences to the victims and families. We here in other parts of the province are thinking about you guys!
Here are some pics of my past projects in the last 5-6 years and of the Apache. Cheers
Welcome Gribbs, Thanks for the intro much appreciated. I hope you enjoy your time here.. The best group of Rodder brothers in Ontario.. will be found right here.. We set the bar high here.. I have a question on that red truck .. I am pretty sure my son was looking at truck back a few months ago.. He had a Harley that I think he was talking about trading.. He is from St.Marys Shawn is his name.. He ended up getting a 50 F1 that I am working on for and with him.. Thanks for joining our forum..

Thanks guys for the welcome and I will post more pics tonight of the Apache or the 36. I have tons of build pics on the Apache, but not too many of the 36 since it was a quick build. I think there were at least 2 Shawns interested in my 36 (I remember getting the spellings of the names all wrong lol) yet it still took a while to sell. I seem to take 5x longer to finish one than I spend driving them before I get board and sell em. I hope to keep the Apache (I say that now, at least) since it has a fortune (to me) tied up in it in time and $$ ....but you never know. Hopefully it is done this year and I drive it all summer.
Only have the Apache now...I did own two at a time for some periods, but I found that stressful, more costly, and only slowed down the process of getting them on the road. As much as I'd love to have a fleet, of course. Gotta be realistic.
Not sure on the green flames, or a danno. I did sell it to a guy who builds bikes out in Kitchener or there abouts, though I don't remember his name. It was a good hauler- I once fit 22 cases of beer on the floor alone, no stacking :) - but it had more issues than I wanted to address and the Apache build was lingering away, so off it went. I lost lots of money on it and I like to think I could buy it back someday.
