Details make the difference. Add pride and skill and you have the real deal. Way to go Byron, you must have had a heck of a teacher.

If I didn’t know better, I’d ask what the hell were you thinking, lol. Man its been My pleasure to become your bro and to work and play in the same shop as we have so many times. I remember meeting you thru G-Man Britt; Coming to the family shop and painting skulls on a gas tank cause I had no where else to go. You and your parents adopted me, even looking like an ole’ hippie, you all accepted me for who I was and not what I looked like. Its been over 15 years now and I’m so proud of your ablitily to keep going even when the going gets tough…You’re the Man…and the only person I know with a personal gallery of my work…If you need anything…you’ve got my #. Oh ya, the ’31 turned out jus’ the way you explained it would…You’ve got the eye, now be U and walk with the thought that some day it will all work out…God Bless U and Yours…tell the ole’ man I said 70 ft. thats a long way…lol…Mike Bumgarner Pinstriping

Stainless steel brake tubes for the “SIX SHOOTER”? After several problems with leaks at the stainless tube, fittings and the flares, I told Byron about EZ BEND brake tubing that we use at our shop. I recall a phone call one Saturday afternoon from Byron with the sound of frustration from the stainless steel brake lines leaking. After some discussion about strawberry cake and Sun-Drop and he driving, the two of us headed to my shop to put an end to his madness with stainless brake lines. I have known Byron since junior high, this piece of art “SIX SHOOTER” is a representation of who Byron really is. Byron the car looks great, I heard you got best RAT ROD! at the Kure Beach show: GREAT JOB

I have to agree with Clyde. I met Byron 10 yrs ago and underneath the tatoos and humor, is a hard working man that takes great pride in his work. He loves what he does and it is evident in the time and effort he takes to create his masterpiece.
