Taken a couple years ago.
Back in 1976, I built this motorcycle from a Norton Featherbed frame and a Honda engine. I had just ridden it across country and bought and installed a windshield, for the ride back.
No I don't own it, but this is Joaquin Murphey's Cadillac.

A friend of mine in Oklahoma owns Merle Travis' last Cadillac, as well as lots of other items from Merle's estate.

MSA Millennium, Legend, and Studio Pro, Reese's restored Universal Direction guitar, a restored MSA Classic SS, several amps, new and old, and a Kemper Powerhead that I am really liking. Also a Zum D10, a Mullen RP, and a restored Rose S10, named the "Blue Bird". Also, I have acquired and restored the plexiglass D10 MSA Classic that was built as a demo in the early '70s. I also have a '74 lacquer P/P, with wood necks, and a showroom condition Sho-Bud Super Pro.

Ok here's mine. It has the 4 cylinder Hurricane engine, 4-speed manual, gears that are splittable and PTO. It was originally sold to Texas Eastern Pipeline with a bush-hog for their mowing needs. Top speed is approx. 45 mph with a tailwind.
And my co-pilot of 28 years loves it.
Note to Wally Moyers: I was looking for one like yours but the Jeep is something we BOTH enjoy........an easier sell for me.....LOL!!

This is how I remember my happy childhood, being driven around by my Dad in his Morris Oxford with my mother by his side. They're both gone now, but I shall always have happy memories of those times.
I can't believe it was sixty years ago.
