Me "bruvver", Mikey, lived in my "mother-in-law" apt. He had a hot rod shovel head and I had one as well. He was the only guy on the planet that I would ride beside drunk or sober.
We drank a LOT together, cracked a few heads together, and ran a lot of old hides. We raised Hell and put a prop under it on more than one occasion.
He got married and I did too.
We see each other about twice a year now. LOL
There's a whole novel there, Wullie. I'm trying to visualise a hot rod shovel head; I think I have it.
