510T Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 I don't think that is the case here, and as far as I've heard CA is nothing like Texas (except maybe Austin ;) ) I stand by my fictional story :D Quote Link to comment

datrod Posted April 18, 2014 Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 So I leave my shop to go run some parts to a vendor and I see this at the first stop light. Dumb ass in the G35 ran the light. And the old lady smaked him pretty good. Quote Link to comment

heretic Posted April 21, 2014 Report Share Posted April 21, 2014 Rancho Cordova, CA ....... when I first came up on him I noticed the arched steel "supports" along the back window. My first thought was some kind of linkage for air bags but as I got closer it looked more like a rack for dirt bikes or bicycles, not really sure. I was in the wifes car & had the whole damn family or I would have stopped & talked with him. Obviously heavily modded chassis. It looked to be pretty smooth & its a left hand drive not a right... kinda weird. Toyota Stout 4 Quote Link to comment
Rhapakatui Posted April 21, 2014 Report Share Posted April 21, 2014 He builds bicycles. There was a write up on that truck in minitruckin in either the last or next to last issue before they stopped printing it. In the shoot, he had some of his custom bicycles in those racks. 1 Quote Link to comment
heretic Posted April 21, 2014 Report Share Posted April 21, 2014 right on, thanks.... I was just surprised that I've never seen this truck before. Do you recall the kinda bikes? The general area where he was at is where Ventana Mountain Bikes are made. He builds bicycles.

Rhapakatui Posted April 21, 2014 Report Share Posted April 21, 2014 (edited) right on, thanks.... I was just surprised that I've never seen this truck before. Do you recall the kinda bikes? The general area where he was at is where Ventana Mountain Bikes are made. The ones in the shoot were definitely not mountain bikes.. I think there was one with fenders and gas tank looking front. Ape hanger handle bars, white wall tires. That sort of bike. I can't find a pic online. I'll have to dig out the magazine when I get home. Found a pic, but the rack isn't in it. I still can't find the article online. Edited April 21, 2014 by Rhapakatui 2 Quote Link to comment
