I had no idea.

One of my bikes has Powerlite Bars.

I only know cause I read it in a BMX Plus! mag interview. Profile Racing built racecars, his kids rode bmx and he didn't like their shitty 1 piece iron cranks. That's how the 3pc were born.

Used to live powerlite bars when I raced as a kid.

Profile is local to me. When I raced fixed gear bikes years ago I built a set of wheels with profile hubs.

Loved how the bars were curved where the hand grips were.

Yep I couldn’t ride regular bars after having them and always put them on my bmx bikes

I was just trying to get back on topic with actual purchases, upgrading my internal network to 2.5Gb for the NAS, and the brad nailer is because I dont like using my narrow crown stapler with brads so will just have both now

Yea, I have the narrow stapler and like it. I have been shooting 1.5 inch brads through it though mostly so figure I would get the right tool (will leave a smaller depression when sinking nails below the surface).

Went to the range, spent 80% of time loading MP5 mags. Bought this.

Hopefully it works as advertised.

Bought this as a project in December but just finished up with fully wrapping it in Xpel Stealth satin PPF, Xpel Prime XR Plus full tint, black emblems, powder coat black wheels and coated with Modesta BC-04 nano-titanium glass coating on body and BC-06 high temp coating on wheels and calipers.

Negotiated a deal on another little project vehicle for my staff to fuck around with today. Would have the deal done on this 1997 Honda Acty 4X4 by the end of the week. Going to do a quick refurb on this one with new wheels/tires, tint and what not for a fun little runner.

Should look something like this when done:

Just saw a truck similar to the Acty outside our neighborhood coffee shop. I want one real bad now. How's parts availability?

When I managed a bike shop, our local Rep was PK. Super nice guy and I actually saw him a few months ago at a trade show.

My lead installer is really into these Kei trucks from Japan and I found this one locally so I'm buying it for him to do up as his personal project and eventually I will likely give it to him as a gift.

you should def do a Kei truck build thread, because I want to live vicariously through someone so I dont buy one yet.

Bought a second Frame/Art TV for the dining room. Installed it yesterday and ran an HDMI through the crawl space. Now I need to get a new bezel from decoframes.
Dining table and Chandelier were bought in December.

I just completed the deal yesterday and don't get the thing until Tuesday or Wednesday. I don't think parts should be a problem but we'll find out

 

[Gotcha38]

I'd love to see pictures as it goes along. Seems like the only small trucks available were built in the 60's or imported from Japan. I'm not sure which direction to go. The Acty is way cheaper.

We will be documenting everything so I'll try and put something together. I'm in Japan for a couple of weeks so it won't be until April.

I really want to do a Datsun mini truck build. Gotta find a donor vehicle first
