Like many of you couch potatoes who watch the Discovery Channel, I am also a HUGE “American Choppers” fan. I don’t own a bike, nor do I know anything about building, repairing, or riding them. I do have a father who is currently helping a friend restore a classic VW Beetle, and a son who is studying automotive repair and fabrication with hopes of someday working in NASCAR.

I posses none of their skills whether it is with a torch, or a wrench, (or anything shiny for that matter), but I do have a tremendous amount of respect and admiration for those that do, and I find the guys at Orange County Choppers to be both amazing designers and craftsman.

Often the guys at OCC create custom motorcycles for various charity organizations and celebrity causes. This photo is of the awesome New York Yankees bike that they built for Jorge Posada’s Foundation. They also built an amazing "Livestrong" bike for the Lance Armstrong Foundation.

The other day I was watching “AC” while opening a new mailer from the Civil War Preservation Trust. The package was specific to the “Save The Slaughter Pen” campaign of which I am a very vocal supporter. This got me thinking that the CWPT should contact the Teutuls in regards to building a Civil War History theme bike. This could be auctioned off to raise money for all of the hallowed grounds that they are striving to protect. Plus how cool would that be? I’d love to see Paul Jr. find a way to work a cannon into the mix.
