Tay is as slow as I am.
But his work speaks for itself.
I broke down this 1920's gas station in the late 80's & installed in the parking lot of my restaurant in 1994.
I came down this week & will become part of a permanent display at the National Motorcycle Museum in Anamosa Iowa.
I know I can't build a bike in two weeks, like on TV, but these 12 years will be worth the wait.
