I really enjoy your blog! I was curious if you had any photos or links to photos of the Gunk Shop, supposedly owned by Doug Fezell or Dougie Poo who may have been HAMC San Bernardino? I'm desperate for more information on the subject and would really appreciate any tips on how to find photos of it online! thanks!
There's a link to a couple photos on a Gunkit shovel, but I thought the establishment advertised was a bar so I may be thinking of the wrong link: http://nostalgiaonwheels.blogspot.com/2008/06/gunkit-shovelhead-straight-outta.html
cool shit
Is this from an issue of Ed Roth's Choppers Magazine? If so what month & year? I've got a copy of the poster hanging in my office...
Yes indeed, its from September 1968. I just sold the issue but was going to copy it before I mailed it out and if you'd like me to copy that Choppers article for you I'd be happy to do so. Just email me with your address and I'll send out a copy for you. Pureheavensmetal@yahoo.com
That poster you have is a great one. Nice find!
