What is “too early” for boat start-up on the Parker Strip?

[monkeyswrench]

House of Choppers on Arrow Highway? Remember the place as a kid in the 70's.

I think it was the same shop...right next to the "Wheel Inn" bar, Barranca and Arrow. North side of the street by what was Roller City...oddly enough, the roller rink was where Mom and Pops met in 63!

All beautiful boats for sure, looks like a Cougar tunnel in there with a big turbo motor?

Since we're both Kenny's, who killed Wheeler...

Talked to him a week or so ago?

He's alive and well doing just fine!

My Girlfriend at the height of that had 2 daughters 9 and 11, they had a lot of fun with it at my expense.

Balance is everything. That one has a gas tank in the nose. Sorry I said belly tank first.

That wasn’t supposed to happen. Cooked a few things but everything is repairable.

Blower sneeze or a fuel issue? Hope no burnt skin.

Fuel return line came off and sprayed the exhaust. Considering myself really lucky for what could have happened but didn’t.

Boy I hope I'm wrong but if 1HomeBlown was Steven Delight I saw that he passed on Facebook.

Unfortunately you are correct. He passed away yesterday. Very sad deal. He will be missed

 

[Dana757]

So the news of @1homeblown passing came across my FB feed this morning. Sad day indeed. May you stay on the up pedal for Eternity.

 

[rivrrts429]

This is terrible news, RIP. Anyone know how he passed? I didn’t know him but thought he was middle aged.
