Fuller Logo On Custom Motorcycle

If you are a serious gear head like me,  you might recognize the logo on the black and white image above.  For those of you not “in the know” it is the logo for Bryan Fuller owner of Fuller Hot Rods.  An amazing talent, Bryan is a custom car, custom motorcycle builder and television personality.  He has been in episodes of Chip Foose’s “Overhaulin,” a featured contestant in the series “Biker Build Off,” and currently, he is the co-host of “Two Guys Garage,” a popular do-it-yourself automotive show.

By now you are probably wondering what Bryan has to do with the High Museum in Atlanta. The High has an exhibit ”The Allure of the Automobile” scheduled to end this month.  There will be a cocktail party to celebrate the end of the exhibit and Bryan will be the host.  The party will be June 24, 2010 from 7:00 PM to 10:00 PM, and you are invited!  This will be your last chance to see cars like this!

The Examples in Allure of the Automobile:

  • 1933 Pierce-Arrow Silver Arrow
  • 1934 Packard Twelve Runabout Speedster, formerly owned by Clark Gable
  • 1935 Duesenberg JN Roadster, formerly owned by Clark Gable
  • 1937 Mercedes-Benz 540 K Special Roadster
  • 1937 Bugatti Type 57S Atalante Coupe
  • 1937 Delage D8-120S, Surbaisse, formerly owned by Louis Delage
  • 1937 Hispano-Suiza H-6C “Xenia” Coupe
  • 1938 Alfa Romeo 8C2900B Touring Berlinetta
  • 1938/39 Porsche Type 64 Coupe replica
  • 1953 Porsche 550 Le Mans/La Carrera Panamerica Coupe
  • 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SLR (W 196-S)
  • 1957 Jaguar XKSS Roadster, formerly owned by Steve McQueen
  • 1961 Aston Martin DB4 GT Zagato
  • 1961 Ferrari 250 Short-Wheelbase Berlinetta, “SEFAC Hot Rod”
  • 1948 Tucker Model 48 Torpedo
  • 1954 Dodge Firearrow III Concept Coupe
  • 1957 Cadillac Eldorado Brougham
  • 1959 Chevrolet Corvette “Bill Mitchell” Stingray Prototype
  • I have seen this exhibit, and these are some amazing automobiles!   In addition to the cars, Bryan will have some of his motorcycles on display.  His one-off customs are always creative and interesting, not your typical bolt together chopper.  When I asked about the bikes, he gave me this short list.

  • Gordy’s Fueller (F3)
  • The Road Warrior
  • My Honda in Process  (I’m assuming project untitled at this time.)

  • Great cars and bikes, exciting right?  It’s even better for me, I am photographing this event!  The larger part of my work is wedding photography, so when I get the chance to “mix it up” with some commercial or event photography, I am ready to go!  I found that by shooting other subjects outside of weddings, it gives me a new perspective, and I can bring something fresh to my weddings.

    The High has been one of my long time favorites, they always have interesting exhibits, and it’s a great place for wedding receptions and corporate functions.  (You did know that right?)  If you have never been, you will be impressed with the High, it’s not what you would expect in a museum, not at all stuffy, and they understand it doesn’t have to hang on a wall to be art.  So, come on down Thursday evening, spend nine bucks, and look at some two and four wheeled art.
