THE OLD ADAGE STILL APPLIES: "IT 'AINT WHERE YA FROM, IT'S WHERE YER AT!" WORD!
just a tad about me.. i'm 36 years old, moved from england to virginia to marry my wife billie and be with my son gage and step-daughter riley. my influences/favorite artists include the man, the legend ed 'big daddy' roth (of course!) jaime hernandez, vaughn bode, bill campbell, robert williams, peter bagge, chris cooper, jack davis, mitch o' connell, john bell, bigtoe, 3 sheets, seen, doug dorr and all the lesser known great folks who continue to churn out kustom kulture and lowbrow art for the love of it. i dig tons of different music from the fifties onward (and some stuff before that) but i'd say i mostly listen to real country lately (fave era 60's and 70's). movie-wise my fave genre is horror, mostly american stuff from the sixties through to early eighties. i dig h.g. lewis stuff the most-hilarious and gross does it for me! i believe that ones own rules apply.. i never did get on with school, i found a home with punk rock and later on the laid back "groovy" vibe of big daddy and his wealth of eye-candy whether it be his mobile creations, the rat fink or the work of the artists he had around him cranking out the awesome imagery that inspired thousands upon thousands... i could give a shit how someone got into this thing we now call 'kustom kulture'.. the most important thing is to keep on keepin' on with what we love and give each other encouragement in our endevours. to hell with the rules as there are none. thats the way BDR lived until his last breath and i 'aint having no one tell me i 'aint worthy for any damn reason. i'm here for the FUN, as the vast majority of us are.. no rules, no bummer. DIG!!!!!
Thanks JayBob! There is some neat stuff up here. I am the web guy for the Rat Bastards Car Club, The website is www.ratbastards.us (or www.hotrodwebsite.com ) and check out some of the rides in the club. I dig your artwork, have been a RF fan since 6th grade (1966?), and got my first plastic RF ring.
