I have a bunch of stuff I need to start getting framed up for the house. Old posters, photos, jerseys, gear sets and other misc. memorabilia. Been putting it off as I've finally gotten around to completing the shop and upstairs "moto space". Any ideas that look good and may be somewhat cost effective would be appreciated. What have you all got hanging around the house??

Oh, and does anyone have a high res copy of this I could get made up to approx. 20"x30"? I've been hounding Roddy for months to purchase one with no luck whatsoever. It's a "must have " for the top of the stairwell.

The gear should be shadow boxed with a set of grips...or goggles...or the front of a Preston Petty w/ a mud-flap on it from the same year/era.

Do you have a nice collection of memorabilia?

Nothing framed, yet...RC's Jersey...some plastic off of championship bikes...yada, yada, yada...all the usual nutty stuff.

Well, there's my '79 wannabe CR250 (Kinda a Tripes RC wannabe) that's going to go "Marty Smith wannabe RC"...all the way down to the tank & swing-arm...Newmann knows...I got bit. Badly. Hell...I'm even making one of the one-off SX tanks.... because, I can!

Finally building the bike(s) that made me want to be a racer.

The collection aspect of it is going out-the-F'n-door, tho...these bikes are GOING RACING! (Shhhh...VMXdN!)

Serious..."Brrrrrraaaaaap!"

Quite sure that Newmann is gonna shoot me.
(Uless I let HIM ride it...)

Yup! Kinda cool how ya guys kept it all "Fox", too. Did you build the pegs?

BTW, you just gotta txt: 1980 CR125 Motor..freshly rebuilt...CORRECTLY...$400. New CLutch, New Top-End, rebuilt crank...by a KTM DEALER!...wooohooo. Even came w/ a Fresh '13 KTM Chain-Guide for $25! Oh, and, "Yes!" We'll take it apart and be sure...

This motor is gonna make some "truth" out of one of our "discussions" in here.

Brrrraaaaap!

ps-Don't tell'em what I'm implying...

Try this newmann... I don't know if it's gonna turn out any good? Sorry to "Roddy" for messing with his awesome picture.
