I photographed this at SEMA, but the lighting was so lousy there, and these turned out much better, at the Grand National Roadster show they appreciate space around the cars to allow for photogrpahy, and it keeps people from getting close and touching the cars, without stantions and ropes. These photos are far better than the SEMA shots: http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2009/11/james-hetfields-boat-tail-speedster.html

I didn't see, that this is owned by ZZ top guitarist and hot rod driving force Billy Gibbons. I mean that Billy funded a lot of customs being built and they way that they look, the work that inspired many enthusiasts. Cadzilla, Eliminator, the pair of motorcycles, the album cover art of the ZZ Top albums in the late 80's.. .. wow

For a good post about this car, with a video of it rolling on a side street: http://chrismejia.tumblr.com/tagged/Billy_F_Gibbons

wow, double roller chain for steering, that had to solve some clearance problems!

Blows my mind, the shifter handle, the punched holes, the switches, the instruments alone are stunning, the steering yoke is phenomenal... what a great dash!
