WHATS YOUR INSPIRATION ?


I once was told the word "NO" inspires .whenever someone would say no i would think of ways to do it.but most of the time my a.d.d would kick in.

lately ive been heavly inspired by music.It seems to help in motivate me in things that i want to get done.last night i drove 3 hours to see a friend in Northridge hospital . I had the car to myself and the radio cranked all the way up.I cant remember the last time i had a chance to do that.I have seen the intrest in customizing - auto,motorcycles,bikes (the pedal kind)in most of my friends, or maybe ive made friends that are custom.So my question is. What is your inspiration?????

WAR TIME IN 1942

"Steady of eye and hand, women workers at the great Willow Run bomber plant are among those throughout the country who are relieving serious shortages of skilled workers by doing such semi-skilled jobs as the one here. She's welding parts of the cooling system direct to the supercharger."


December 1941 at factories in Akron and Cleveland. White Motor Company, Cleveland, Ohio. "Halftrac scout cars. Putting precision-made pistons assemblies into precision-made cylinders is a job that fits this former auto worker. The engine will be the power plant of an Army halftrac scout car. The Midwest plant that is turning it out has trained American automotive workers for every job on the line."



THE GASLAMP ANTHEM

IM NOT SURE HOW I FOUND THIS BAND BUT I CANT STOP LISTENING TO THEM.I BOUGHT BOTH ALBUM'S. SKIN & SWIM AND 59 SOUND. BOTH ALBUM'S ARE EQUALLY GREAT ,BUT WITH DIFFERENT SOUNDS.
