Chad Norman The Monster Man

On my travels to different car shows and art shows I've met lots

of cool people. And at the top of the list is my buddy Chad Norman.

I met Chad, or Norman as he goes by, at this years Rat Fink Reunion

 at the Roth pad in manti Utah. I cant remember when I've had such

a good time just hangin' out with someone. And his wife Ali is his perfect match. Norman also just happens to be one of the best Monster airbrush painters I have ever seen. He has this really cool style and if you just happen to be lucky enough, you just might catch him doing one of his famous plain white T-shirt's. He emailed me this framed picture titled Mind 2 and I just had to show some of his work. Enjoy the crazy monsters from the Monster man, Norman.

To get a hold of a monster of you own you can get a hold of him @

c.norman@mail.com and also on facebook.

He even does a bang up job with some 1-Shot and a good ol'

paint brush!

Check out this little "Rat Fink", or "Bomb Fink" as I call him.

You can actually ride this thing! A little Briggs & Straton hidden inside the bomb powers the bomb down the road.

WAY COOL!!!

I'm not sure which one is the Alien?

And here it is,

the "MonsterPiece" - "Mind 2"

Now that's some fine art!!!

Ink and Iron Long Beach Ca. 2010

I was makin' my way over to Long Beach for the annual Ink and Iron show at the Queen mary and decided to stop by West Coast

Choppers. I hadn't been there for a while and it was on my way.

There is always cool stuff in the showroom.

Here is a shot of one of the excellent paint job's that

Pete " Hot Dog " Finlin does here every day!

 " Hot Dog" does some of the best paint and striping you'll ever see.

A cool ride. Jeese has good taste.

Here are a couple of original cover photos of Chopper magazine
