PROVE YOUR INTELLIGENCE– Every piece you put on your ride makes a statement, just make sure you don?t say anything stupid. Solution, Johnny Chop Ind. Pegs. J.C.I. Pegs are designed with clevis ends and outer end caps, which also happen to be interchangeable allowing you to mix and match. How about brass centers with aluminum clevis or end cap or aluminum with brass and end cap, pretty nifty eh?
Yeah, there?s nothing like well-crafted parts with options that allow you to show off your personal style. For more information, contact: Johnny Chop Ind., www.johnnychop.com.
LA CARRERA PAN AMERICAN RACE WITH A STINKIN? ?54 LINCOLN–Yeah I signed on to run in the junior class of this famous race, as co-pilot, with Dr. Hamster. We?re running 2,500 miles from the bottom of Mexico in Oaxaco, to Texas in a mad dash to get out of the country.
Here?s a couple of shots of the car. This particular car ran the race in 1999. This model won the race two years running in the mid ?50s. We?re looking for a sponsor or two to have their emblems emblazoned on the big sheet metal panels. Kellog cereal, Mercedes and major corporate sponsors are all over these cars like Nascar players. Some race efforts eat over a million bucks on this annual competition.
We?re looking for $8,900 in sponsorship funds to keep up with the big dogs. Let us know if you want your company logo running with the big dogs all over Mexico. Sure, it?s crazy for a couple of bikers to enter this race, but what the hell. Ya only live once.
