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.
-thanks Ron

Ron's speciality is fibreglass moulding. Wonder if those were his own hands? He showed us a pic of the same van in..blue & white I think, with red Indian heads moulded into the rear doors.

Happy to create full write-ups on any of your vehicles if you can supply enough photos & info/annecdotes Ron.

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
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
plus I blame Ron for getting me into padded tartan shirts which seems to be the norm round crazy custom freaks
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
