come to think of it this is one section i think would be interesting to have on the site- artwork, photography, photoshop stuff etc.
It's always interesting to see what people would like to do if we all had bucketloads of money to build showstopping customs and such, and i can't see anyone getting offended by a drawing eh?

Believe it or not I went to Uni from 84-86 and got a degree in art. Im not that great a drawer but have spent the last 23 years blowing glass and making stained glass windows for all sorts of places. The largest one I made was for a chapel. 5 metres by 4 metres. On this job I fell off the ladder and broke both feet. I spent a week in hospital and didnt walk for 2 and a half months.
I still consider the work I do on cars art even if some would say im just a panel beater spray painter.
Im always daydreaming about the custom creations in my head. I to cant put them down on paper very well.
The one thing that I learnt from getting the degree was having the abilty to look at things and be flexible and always find a solution to a problem.
Ratbox in the conversations Ive had with you over the years about your projects I have seen that same process going on. Dont sell yourself short mate.

Ha ha Scotty. Im short enough as it is. I was in a wheel chair the whole time. If I couldnt get around on that I would crawl on my hands and knees.
When I was hurt I went with a mate to the city to a book sale. I parked the car and wheeled myself up Clarence st and crawled up the stairs.
I knew the parking meter was going to run out so I left my mate and went down the stairs dragging the chair behind me. Before I got to the bottom one of the wheels broke off and there I was sitting in the footpath not being able to get to the car and a broken wheel chair. Do you think anyone walking past offered to help? Not likely.
Imagine trying to explain that in court when I am trying to get off the fine.
When I got home I dragged the Mig welder out of the shed and welded the bloody thing on.
