Sorry it took me so long Chuck... We have been working overtime to try to take over what Joe left behind.

After several weeks of trying to figure out passwords and finding what keys go to what locks and doors, as well as running the businesses daily stuff.... I think I finally have the hang of things.

Here is what I have for you so far....

I have attached two pictures of the shop and can also send you a video of the pull tractor that Joe built for a customer using a CB750 engine. I'm still trying to finish that one.

I am still looking for a picture of Joe. Those are hard to find considering that he shot almost all the pictures we have. I hope his mother can spare one for me. As for his bike... Well that was left in a state of waiting. As of right now it is a bare frame waiting for rear suspension. I can take a picture of that for you and update you on the progress as we are going to finish it as a shop memorial to him. There are also a few parts for the CB750 that I know he was looking to eventually sell, as well as parts for a "Downinit from hondachoppers.com" written on the box. I haven't found an address as of yet for these so any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you need anything else please feel free to email me. I saw that you had called his phone the other day and wanted to let you know that that phone will be turned off as of Sept. 1st.

When Mic was given his personal things at the hospital she gave me a poem that she had given him years ago that was still in his wallet. It read:

Lightning is my highway
fire is my companion
gasoline is my life blood

leather is my protector
my engine is my heartbeat

stand aside in your plaid
look away from your vanity fair

Now is the time for unbridled havoc
For here I am…

I am Mavrik.

I put that on the shop door to remind us everyday that he lives on through his gifts to our community. Joe will be truly missed around here.
If there's anything you need. Please let me know.
