“I dont like to fix new things, I want to make old things new again. I want to breathe new life into those forgotten and discarded things. I see the good and the value in them where others cant, I see in them what, I hope, Jesus sees in me.”
– Josh bates
What’s Going on in My Garage
My projects, plans and procrastinations all together in one place to remind me how much there is to be done and how little time (and money) there is to do it.
1974 Yamaha RD 350
After nearly 30 years with me its time for a full on custom build.
1987 Harley FLT-C
Granddad’s Harley that was lost for a decade is being brought back to life.
Setting Up Shop
Im preparing to move from my two car attached garage to a dedicated shop where I can work and help others learn.
1950s Dandy Boy
This old 2hp walk behind tractor is getting 8 horsepower, electric start and a 5 speed harley transmission.
The Mini
This is a mix and match parts bin bike, part Honda, part Suzuki and may endup as a one of a kind custom scooter.
The Knowlton Motor Company
The dream I’ve been chasing my whole life. Building things only to build them, then selling parts I design in the process to keep it going.
Keep your eyes open for updates and follow along.
