Well, I think I'm going to go with the Tiger Mouth theme on the tank rather than the pin up girl. I might find a spot on the bike for her but we'll see. Oh, I should mention that I plan on doing everything myself. Mainly its just fun to mess around and see what you can create and those old aircraft didn't have professional paint jobs either. Just seems like I'll be able to "capture" that look by doing everything in a garage. Hell, maybe I'm wrong, but there's only one way to find out......

That's what we put on our bumpers in Iraq.
