When master customizer Eddie Paul decides to build a jaw-dropping chopper, he doesn't mess around. Whether it's bolting on mock machine guns, ammunition belts and hand grenades, or stuffing two superchargers on top of a big-block V-8 to produce 1,500 horsepower, this Hollywood movie car wizard knows how to make a statement. In Eddie Paul's Extreme Chopper Building Eddie shares the tips, techniques and planning that can help you turn your motorcycle into a rolling work of art. > About the Author Eddie Paul is a man of many talents, but he modestly refers to himself as an inventor whenever anybody ask him what he does. He opened his first shop, Customs by Eddie Paul, back in the 1970s.
