This is a picture of a great friend, a fellow by the name of Nick Hardie, who is a phenomenal hot rod builder, painter, and a master of aging and patina. (If you have a chance, check out issue #34 of Rodder's Journal for some of his work). He's taking my freshly-painted gas tank and seat away to do some pinstriping magic. I gave him the colors (vintage orange and antique white) and he's otherwise in complete control of the final results. It'll be cool, no matter what.
Good eye! '85 Chrysler Fifth Avenue. It's his bombing-around/winter-beater. He filled an old antenna hole with a penny. His summer rides include several '32 and earlier Fords and a really kick-ass Jeepster.
The seat is from Hot Wing Glass (http://hotwingglass.com/) and it works decently. If I want to pull the seat off I unsnap the cover, pull the seat foam off the bottom (velcro'd on) and pull the 2 Dzus fasteners that hold it down in the back. The front is anchored via a plate which gets stuck under the gas tank mount. The big downside to the snaps is the front snaps rub the frame the way I have it mounted. The paint is already buggered there, but fortunately you'll never see it.
