Unknown early BMW race motorcycle

found on http://bittenco.blogspot.com/2011/04/bmw-desconhecida.html

what are these doing on the hood of a late 80's Z28? What are they from?

Paul Garrett didn't build this car, he bought it. Truth in advertising, if Garrett and Sons aren't honest about that, are you going to buy from them?

This is Frankentein built by Ricky Bobbys Rod Shop, you'll see it as the 11th hot rod in this list of hot rods that Ricky Bobbys Rod Shop built http://rickybobbysrodshop.com/rods

What is it called when a guy buys a car, puts his business name across the sides, and brings it to shows?

I talked to Ricky at he GNRS show when I was incredibly impressed with "One Night Stand" http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2011/01/ricky-bobbys-rod-shop.html and just emailed him to verify because Rory was cool and pointed out that Garrett didn't build it. http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2010/04/garrett-and-sons-rod-shop-rat-rod-i-dig.html

From Ricky's email to me today:.... I just what to be low key and have fun.....and hope one day that my car is that barn find that some young guy will find and be very proud of and aways wonder who in the hell built it.... and wish that the car could talk..... thats it no more ... your friend Ricky Brown

Roundabout and Etienne immediately recognized this license plate! It's Italian, and from Milano

It is really unusual to see license plates from other countries in San Diego, and I didn't know what this one was. It's great to have so many people to ask and get help from, thank you everyone!
