Bodge Deep is a spoonerism of my other love, my 1944 Dodge 'Beep' or Dodge Weapons Carrier. I've been into military vehicles for many years but this is my main squeeze. Its set up as a USAAF Flying Control Truck from a Bomber Base of WWII...(a mobile control tower... full of vintage radio gear and signals equipment) and its chequered too :mrgreen:
Which in turn kinda drags me into vintage american bikes, music, clothes, films, cars etc. Interestingly trawling through the site it seems that english made bikes were available in the US whereas we have had virtually no US made bikes available over here until the new shape Schwinn Stingray of the last few years... lots of modern beach cruiser type copies (of which mine is one) God I love all the vintage Schwinns and Monarchs and the like they're so stylish whereas english bikes of the 30's - 50's are incredibly dull by comparison... I'd give my left leg for a good unrestored 40's american balloon tire bike...
