Another old photo…

And this one, folks, is Steve and his brother from around 1970…

The photo is ultra cool for a lot of reasons…that’s Steve in the yellow shirt standing next to his ’38 Chevy (into which he had wedged a 427 Chevy motor).   Steve tells me he wishes he still had it, and I’ll bet he does.   It had to have been an awesome ride.

The bike is a CB750 Honda, with extended wrought iron girder forks, a coffin paint tank, the period paint job, and a semi-hardtail frame…all touches that were popular back then.  I can only guess at the handling, but it must have been a cool ride back in the day.

Just for grins, I did a side by side of the boss…then and now…and isn’t it something that Steve’s posture and position in these photos (photos that are 40+ years apart) are almost identical?

Steve---then-and-now

Looking good, Steve….
