I'm back biatches

Hey ya'all...Billy B. AKA FAT356 is back.....miss the gang. Hope all is well.

HEY BILLY HOW U DOING
HOW IS THE NEW SHOW?

Billy! Welcome back. Just so you know, Gerd is not one of us wide body guys anymore. He pussed out and got a coupe with no flairs at all! However, Vince moved up a notch to a super wide body. Now we just need to get you back into one. What color will it be this time?
Troy

WHAT! You didn't learn from your past experience with the SoCal SOC knuckleheads? Welcome back, my BRUTHA, but don't say we didn't warn you...

Billy B (far right) at one of our SoCal SOC gatherings in Malibu. Doesn't that look on his face say..."WTF have I gotten myself into"?




This was Billy's bad-ass ride...

That group picture explains part of why Will Pierson goes by the login name of "Billyfeet." What are those Will, about size 17s? They're almost as long as Desi and Gerd are tall! ;-)

Billy! How you doin? Welcome BACK to the madness........

Billy...You Bastard...You join our motly crew with your beautiful wife, and the fattest, most gorgeous tub I ever saw, with that
attitude of yours, and then, just like you came in, you left.....
I don't know dude, you are going to have work a little to get back in...but I have faith in you....
It's because of your tub, that I am now cruising a fat one myself...

Look at the reflections in that photo.

I was looking at that and trying to decide if it looked like Jimi Hendrix or if I was just having a "personal experience."

Angela, you wild child...you're on to something; also reminds me of an old Santana jacket...far out...

I see a VW Beetle...or is that Jesus?

...can't be Jesus. Jesus was last envisioned on a tortilla; reportedly was in Laredo on August 27th as I recall; the truth! (according to local news?)

I think Billy has left the building.....AGAIN...

...not Jesus...Ted Nugent!

It's ELVIS....

Beetle for sure... Jesus didn't drive... and the album was entitled Santana with the Lions face and other pix inside of that...

It's George Harrison and here's the picture to prove it.

That's proof enough for me!
And like his album title "All Things Must Pass"

Looks like George in a kind of Peter Max kind of way.

Sorry...on the road....working on a cool new DIY Network show called "Extra Yardage" (I'm the host!)
Building/restoring a new widebody outlaw..a bit less bling & refined than the last FatAss but really cool! Pix soon!
When is the next run? Miss you dudes! And, Yes...Nina is still enduring me!

Happy Father's day.....

B :)-

What! Nina is STILL hanging with you? Good on you, she's definitely a keeper!

Be sure to let us know when your show is on the air so we can all get together and celebrate (or just hang out)!

Motley SOC crew at the Rock Store on the infamous Mulholland Drive.

Great picture Jim...my series is called EXTRA YARDAGE on the DIY Network...every Tuesday night (full series) 7:30 pst/10:30 est and in rerun!
Anybody wanna organize a local run...anxious to bring out my new speedy!
B

Very cool Billy. I'll be tuning in and I'm anxious to see pics of the new Outlaw!
Troy

Wrapping up the new speedy this weekend.....any trips planned..even small gatherings? Anxious to get out and get some smiles and opinions!!!
Pix soon......

Billy r u still in simi
Carrol and I and the rest of the group can roll anytime u r ready

Billy Boy - check the 'Events' thread. We're doing a run up to Mt Palomar (observatory) in northern San Diego county. I know its a long haul for you, but if you're really jonesing for a run...

...or maybe we can do another run to the Rudder Room in Oxnard, or stay local and do The Rock Store again (Mulholland). We'll keep you posted.




...oh, Vince and Gerd give you a shout out...

MAN....I MISS YOU GUYS...... nice picture!

Yes, still in Simi near Wood Ranch!

I will wrap up the hoopty this week and chime in with pix.

Really excited to roll again!

Thanks Gerd..much appreciated! It's a fun show to watch and legit! Let's plan a nice local trip in a week or two....wrapping up my hoopty outlaw this week!

Sneak peek at my new wide-ass outlaw. Here is the skinny:

1-I know, it' s not a polished showcar like my other tub
2-have no idea who even made the body...do not really car cause it's bitchin' now!
3-tried to built it on a budget (under $20k)
4-did most the work in-house with my buddies
5-it's rough with some great patina and lots of very personal touches
6-what it lacks in "newness", it makes up for in crazy personality
7-hand burnished all major chrome items to a nickel finish
8-very basic rebuilt 1600 with single carb....a reliable putter!
9-picture are low-res in our shop!

Opinions are welcome.
Thanks for listening/looking:

Now I really like that. Nice job of individualizing.

I'm sure you missed these guys, Billy. All except GERD, that is ;-)

Thanks Lane...I missed GERD most of all....his bark is WAY worse than his bite!!! :)-

Hey Billy,

Great to have you back!

Can't wait to see your New-to-you tub in person. You always had a great eye for detail and creative ideas.

Hopefully, we'll see you on the Palomar Cruise?

Robert

Billy - I'm digging on the deep dish wheels with the nipple hubcaps! Nice ride!
