However, the spectacular road races were just part of the festivities of Daytona’s Speed Week in those years.
Most racing fans are familiar with the fabulous old beach/road course races at Daytona, held before the big speedway was built in 1959. The clientele is beginning to grow, and customer service for all of our “shops” is the KEY WORD. Here’s some great footage of the NASCAR Daytona speed trials for 1957, featuring the measured mile. We had several empty window front rooms, so we located some killer artists, and to town they went, painted the walls, signs, and floors. The Tattoo Shop came along as a last minute add on. The studio (ELITE STUDIOS) is Jack’s domain, the bikes, girls, hot rods, products, and everything else are shot in there AS WELL its a rental studio to other photographers and video production companies. Most of the bikes produced are charity raffle bikes with more on the way. The Bike builds are John’s specialty, no service work, just ground up bad ass bobbers, pro-streets, and choppers. So, “House” you ask…, you got it, not you can see why. George had located a new building for his fiberglass company to work from, and with the extra 50,000 sq ft, we pulled together, built a great shop, showroom, photo / video studio, and Tattoo Shop.

The idea came to be because of three very talented individuals in their own business, all friends outside of work, Johnny Mac (motorcycle builder), George Berry (Fiberglass fabricator), and Jack McIntyre, Photographer / WEB / GRAPHICS. The word “House” plays a role in the title of this company as you will see. I’m referring to Johnny Mac’s Chopper House. Have you ever come across a shop that was so unusual, you had to just tell everyone? Well we did, and its in a little town just outside Philadelphia called Croydon, Pa.
