The Bid-ness of Wolfgang

Some of the old blues singers pronounce it “bid-ness,” as in: “It ain’t none of your bid-ness if I go to church on Sunday and raise hell all day on Monday.” But I digress.

The collapse of a bookshelf in the office forced us to pick up the books that landed on the floor and reorganize. Instead of having old copies of various Wolfgang and Timothy Remus books spread throughout the office, we put ‘em all in one place. And once in place I made the mistake of counting them. Eight four. Yes, 84 books written and/or published by Timothy Remus and Wolfgang Publications. It all gave me cause to pause, until I realized that number 85 is late, so I better get off my ass and finish the New Jon Kos Kustom Painting Secrets book.


The Wolfgang archives include over 80 books. Everything from Custom cars to Kustom paint - and lots of Motorsicle stuff.


Booking Progress

A lot of people seemed to get a kick out of the paint and, more importantly, the colors seen on the new Jon Kos ‘34 Ford project. As you can see in the photos, the body is painted and set back onto the frame. The chassis itself is complete, complete with engine and driveline, brakes, fuel lines and all the rest.

What’s left however is a hell of a lot of work. Installation of the wiring is going on as we speak, and then there’s the interior and garnish moldings to install, and the fenders to paint. And probably about a thousand other smaller, but no less important details.


Progress, Jon’s ’34 Ford body is painted and looks great out in the sun.


And the book? Oh yea, the book. The book is progressing. It’s kind of like Jon’s car, I wish the project was just a little farther along than it is.


With a little help from his friends, Jon gets the body set down on the already-finished chassis.
