ARE YOU ONE OF THOSE SMART GUYS WHO CAN READ? AND WHO HAS AN OPINION? THEN YOU’RE QUALIFIED!
Check you out, you ARE a smart guy…you’ve made it well into this second sentence, so far so good. Next step: pick up a Garage Magazine and thumb through that. Final step: send us some opinions. Any opinion. We don’t want you to blow sunshine up our ass, we want the honest, unvarnished truth. Tell us what you like or don’t like about the magazine, give us your 2¢ on the articles, the photos, the page numbers, whatever. We’re like that chick you dated. The one who dotted all her “i”s with hearts. The one who would always ask “whatcha thinkin’?” and ruin a perfectly good awkward silence. Yeah we’re just like her, but without the possibility of, well, yeah, let’s just leave it at we’re just like her. So, whatcha thinkin’? Send your comments to: mailslot@garagemagazine.com

MEOW. MEOW. MEOW. SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE BIG WIGS AT JAG LET JESSE JAMES SINK HIS HIS CLAWS INTO THEIR NEW XKR
Kudos to the chaps on the other side of the pond who put this ride together. It’s pretty tight. When it rolled into West Coast Choppers it got a lot of attention. And that’s saying something when you consider the collection of cars that are parked here on a daily basis. It’s a purdy piece of sheet metal to say the least.
But, when was the last time something came into West Coast Choppers and didn’t roll out looking a whole lot better? Jesse had a few mods in mind for this already cool cat. It got a very UN British makeover: first order of business: drop it, then wrap it in “Jesse James Flat Black” a new vehicle wrap by Skinzwraps [you will do a double take–no one in the shop believed it was a wrap. It is virtually indistinguishable from a paint job!] Add some loud, beefy pipes, and finish it off with some new shoes. Makes you see Jaguar in a whole new light. Aston Martin should be more than just a little concerned…
If you want to check out the Jesse James Jaguar XKR in person, it’s front and center in the Jaguar display at the LA Auto Show this weekend.

Rippeg came from Napoli, Italy to witness the No Love Party for himself this year. Hanging out at the shop for weeks we got to know a little about him. Along with single handedly adding 85% of the pictures to West Coast Choppers Official Facebook, he rides one of the few El Diablo II rigid’s in Italy. His dedication to WCC at Long Beach was seen in action where spent most of his visit to California lingering outside the shop catching glimpses of the new bikes and parts. Rippeg hopes add to Italy’s stock of WCC bikes and build an El Diablo in the future. Ciao!
