I don't see Xzibit and that don't look like West Coast Customs, but maybe it's a reasonable "Northwoods" facsimile
Should be looking good though...
Matt:
Who is your help???

West Coast Choppers it ain't, but these guys are the northwoods version. You should see some of the rides in their shop... I'm drooling over a 48 yellow Merc coupe... wouldn't be surprised if it ends up in the driveway someday... I use Eagle Collision here in town, on Hwy 45 south, they have shops in Minocqua and Rhinelander too. Great bunch of guys and they know their stuff... I'll get a picture of that coupe...

As of today the "Mary Celeste" is painted! Waiting on new rubrail and graphics... We'll get a photo to post tomorrow.
These guys are good, highly recommended if you're looking to "pimp your ride..."

As promised, here's an update on the pimp job...
She's painted and looks great. I'm waiting on new graphics and new rubrail at the moment. I could take her out and fish but I'm told letting the paint cure a couple days isn't a bad thing as long as I'm waiting for stuff anyway...
Let me tell you guys out there, whether auto or boat work, go see the boys at Eagle Collision
http://www.eaglecollisionctr.com/
A friendlier bunch of guys is hard to find but most impressively, they're straight shootin' guys. If you don't get along with these fellows... you have a personality problem...
I actually need a name for the boat now... "The Tub", "Her", and " *%^ of a @+#!* " just doesn't cut it anymore... lately I've just been using any name that comes to mind, like...
"Black Pearl"
"Flying Dutchman"
and "Mary Celeste"
Maybe I'll make a poll, let you guys decide... or perhaps do a call in vote during this weeks radio show... hmmmm?

At the moment the name "Mary Celeste" sticks in my mind... a brigantine of famous stories where all aboard her disappeared without a trace, she was found early December, 1872, empty and adrift on the Atlantic...
"In summary, the ship was in good condition and seaworthy, yet the crew had apparently abandoned her very quickly and abruptly, perhaps in panic, although there was no evidence to suggest why this was so. Expensive personal possessions and the ship cargo were left in place and were completely untouched. There was no sign of a piracy raid, a mutiny, or any kind of violence or struggle aboard, nor was severe weather reported or seen in the area. None of the Mary Celeste's crew or passengers were found, nor was the lifeboat, and it is unlikely that the events leading to their disappearance will ever be known with certainty"
It's a cool story...

Don't know yet... but a boat has to have a name, bad juju for a boat not to have a name...
Should be putting graphics on and "splashing" her today, may have to wait overnight to let graphics set, not sure yet, but I want her back on the water. There's an uneasy disturbance in the universe and the force needs to be balanced...
Besides... guide work starts again tomorrow, she's going in no matter what.

I was in the Mary Celeste last year.. I remember ciggie butts, Dr. Pepper cans and lures big as your foot were everywhere... :-)
You and Pete whould play live on the show sometime!
We had some fun working on "Cripple Creek"with Matt. Reminded me of a kid taking the training wheels off the bike for the first time. Had a hoot and before you know it we'll get some of that stuff on the show. Looking forward to "Chiggerfest" at Musky Lodge this summer. I might even drag my buddies who play mandolin and bass along.
