Welcome to the Worldwide V8 Bikers Forum

Lennu, I go to NYC a few times a year and have been doing so for around 50 years believe it or not! :shock: Ever since a kid and actually lived there when I was very young. Finding a place to stay and things to do are the easy part. What's difficult is find a place to park a Ford F350 pickup truck, ...

Nice tits!

Russ, In case you didn't see my post on the other board, get in touch via PM with Jimbo (V8virtuoso). He just shipped a V8Chopper he bought to London. Also had a big block Kannon and a Boss that he may have bought here and shipped. He's also having Stan build him one or two more choppers so he's def...

Welcome back Mike!

Looks like you found Jack Phillips (Hawk88) brother.

A buddy of mine lives in the mountains outside Albequerque, NM and really likes it a bunch. Does a lot of riding mountains and desert.

You get to drive that truck or just picture posing?

Elliot

Jack, I haven't met many barbeque places I don't like. The good ones...ummmummm. :roll: I'll need some of the "New York City info" I titled this thread before going to Harlem. Used to be a place the honkies didn't go. Maybe along with all the clean up I referenced earlier, it's ok now. Bes...

Jack, your "one horse town" is probably bigger than where I live. We're glad to have some paved roads in Todd, NC, hee hee. In spite of it being 180 degrees from the way and where we live, I really like NYC a bunch. I marvel that a place with so many people can actually function as it does...

Kim, we usually stay at the Benjamin, Kimberly, or Flatotel. They're very nicely located in midtown Manhattan but not cheap. The hookers there would be very high priced and the rats would leave in limos...just kidding. :o It was just today recommended to check a place in the Village called Washingto...

Eagle,

Gerry's a hoot. The whole V8Chopper family are first rate folks. It was a blast hanging and riding with them in Daytona and I look forward to the same in Myrtle Beach. Thanks,

Elliot

That looked like a wild time. I think I'd enjoy that one. Thanks for the pics!

Looked like that V8Chopper was a new one and Gerry from Atlanta there? Should have known he would show if it had nasty stuff!

Elliot

Anyone with a good knowledge of the city, could you please PM me? I have some specific questions that probably wouldn't be of interest to most on a thread. Thanks for any help.

Elliot

BB,

Thanks a bunch, I'm on it!

Elliot

Geez,

I guess it wouldn't be appropriate for me to call her a "pig".

Elliot

I'm not sure what the hell is being said but I think I've figured enough out to say "welcome" and/or "congratulations"!

Elliot

Ahhhhh, now I get it (not!) .

I can live with the n o (nep) and y ep (jep) but I'm going to stay away from that "P uff" shit!

Elliot

Rick, I love hearing this and admire Pete all the more now. As I mentioned earlier, my previous experience with the really high priced Mtn bike owners with the big Donovan's was more the park and show variety. There was actually a guy in Naples who had a wicked bike but had never even been into the ...

I originally thought it may be my lousy, late night typing but now think otherwise. I put the word "YEP" on a post and it came out "NEP". It was a "Y" not a "J". See, it did it again! Whenever I use the word "no" (that's n.o.) it's comes out "ne...

Yep, really cool looking bike! Thanks for the pics!

Elliot

Pete, looking forward to seeing the pictures here. I haven't done any serious cross country like you with the V8's. Have done some via the BMW. Perhaps one day...!

I sent you a PM on some other "stuff".

Elliot

I've had a couple of back and forths with Pete from NY (Kaboom) on the other board that I'm going to continue here. That way I can say; "holy shit Pete, what an awesome bike!" I find it interesting that Pete says Kaboom is going to the desert roads in CA so he can run balls to the walls. T...

I thought being so pretty and having a new bike, I'd be a good candidate. After seeing all Rick's pics...I concede, you win Rick!

Elliot

Kim, It's hard to beat black! Super clean look and it focuses more attention to the motor when lookers don't have a real busy paint scheme to look at. Your chrome really looks outstanding against the black. There are a few exceptions to that like Wild Bills 502 and a bike that I believe Pete from NY...

Wow, I've got a story to go with this setup. Unfortunately I didn't meet the owner but I now take for granted it's Larry? Anyhow... I was standing at a vendor's having some V8Chopper patches sewn on a leather and denim jacket. Along comes this guy on that trike pulling up to the porta-potti. At the ...

Rob,

Unfortunately, any gal that age and that hot in front of my house would be one of the granddaughter's friends.

Great looking house and bike too!

Elliot

I'm putting up a thread here and the other board looking for any Myrtle Beach suggestions. Troy Price sent me a map and some good eats suggestions which I really appreciated. I'm editing out the paragraph that was here requesting accommodation suggestions as Wild Bill pointed me in the right directi...

Ricky, I had miserable luck with the red Holley pumps. I was mounting them in different positions but most were on the bellhousing and mounted sideways. That may have been a no no. It wasn't only me having problems and some were mounted as suggested vertically. I believe it was Neil who suggested a ...
