Title: Madron's cars, bikes & trikes added. Post by: Manky Monkey on March 29, 2008, 10:17:38 PM Madron emailed in a bunch of photos of various cars & bikes he's built over the years. Not enough for a full write-up on each so we've made up a page to list them all with the available info. First the cars. Next we'll cover the bikes, then the trikes.

Post by: madron on March 31, 2008, 12:16:01 AM hi we made hands overlarge to flow with the size of the headlights as they were larger than pop ones and the rear doors originally had a mural on of a herd of buffalo but thought it was too much with the ones on sides it also had nitrous oxide from trevs a prototype (at the time) 3 stage system and firs t time i used it mate ended up in the rear WITH the passenger seat wouldnt go in it with me again wish i still had it

Title: Re: Madron's cars, bikes & trikes added. Post by: texon on April 04, 2008, 11:57:22 AM I havnt got any photos Ron wont let me have a camera when Im round him :( but lots of storys I could tell that would make you heat bleed and you ribs crack he aint called MAD RON for nothing ;D ;D ;D I started working with Ron when I was just a kid of 13 ,I think it was the Norton chop he had that I got me hooked on customs :-\ .If only I had stayed away I might have been sane today ::) I was quite happy growing up normal playing on tarzan swings down in the woods and getting bathed in front of the fire in a tin bath,But it was not to be, I ended up meeting Ron and swinging of MAD buggies n bikes and getting bathed in muddy boggs . He`s got no class and the s**t sticks .He`s a crazy guy with a MAD BAD attitude ,great to argue with and a great friend even though he`s always wrong and I`m always right ;D plus I blame Ron for getting me into padded tartan shirts which seems to be the norm round crazy custom freaks ;D I better stop there all this reminiscing is making me feel sad thinking what a life I could have had ,you never know I could have had a volvo and a 9 to 5 job and thought of nothing but flowers , opera and agreed with the government .NAAAAAAAAA fk that glad I am as mad as you lot ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D 8) :-\
