There are plans for paint and detail work by the time of Bonneville Speed Week but for this weekend it will run without it, and instead of freehand lettering, we'll use stickers.

This Moon Equipped Eyeball Sticker is a cherished item from the Dean Moon era. It's a water-slide decal from the early 1960's. Just by looking over the entire sticker, you can easily tell it's from that period.

With preparation complete and in order, we'll be heading out for El Mirage at about noon on Friday (5/16).

It really has that MOON Equipment Company feeling and vibe.

Chico says to attempt over 200mph in a car built by his own hands, it is an incredible feeling. It's amazing!

Click to view Exhibition FlyerSaturday night (17 May), in Santa Monica, California is the opening reception for Kustom Japan (Mike McCabe photographs) and Don Ed Hardy exhibitions at Track 16 Gallery. They worked together on the excellent hard cover photo book titled, "Kustom Japan" which focuses on the Hot Rod and Kustom Kulture scene in Japan. For more details on the Exhibition, check out Track 16 Gallery online.

Group Photo with the Roadster at Mooneyes Santa Fe Springs prior to El Mirage May 2008The opening reception is from 6PM and there will be many artists and guests attending. Wildman (On the left in the group photo to the right) will be there. He'll be at El Mirage and Santa Monica all in one day - one of the reasons he got the name Wildman in the first place!

Other Japanese pinstripers will be at Track 16 Gallery as well including M&K Makoto, Mr. G and others. You can bet the reception will be awesome!
