Not sure if anyone is interested, but on Jan. 10th and 17th American Chopper (Orange County Choppers) will be building a Eleanor theme bike for Unique performance on the Discovery channel. Mike Sr. in return gets a Eleanor Mustang.
You can see the bike and car at the Unique performance web site.

Even worse, OCC builds stuff that attempt to be all show and no go. This bike is neither. That car is both.

And note that Mike Sr. is not given the car, he paid for it. Hopefully that overpriced nightmare of a bike was not partial compensation.


The electric yellow Super Snake ordered by Paul Teutul Sr. of the hit Discovery Channel show "American Chopper" was exchanged in Las Vegas at SEMA.

Me talking to the OCC guys.

Me: Hey guys great bike, howd you do that paint job?
Them: Oh, ummm, we dont do the painting.
Me: Oh, well how long did it take to assemble the engine?
Them: We dont do that either.....
Me: Hmmm. So what do you guys actually do?
Them: We create fake drama, and make america stupid for liking us.

Not to defend OCC but most custom builders don't do the engine in house. As for the drama......they are just getting out of control since they started making "alot" of money. They were more fun to watch when they still had the little shop and did most of the work.

God that thing is ugly. It was fun watching Sr. boil the tires off of that Super Snake, but ugh, that bike is a travesty. :nono:
