I’m not usually a chopper fan, but there’s just something about the original choppers from the 60’s and 70’s that appeals to me. Arlen Ness is one of the most iconic chopper builders out there and this is one of his builds from the mid-70’s (and that’s him in the background).
Ben has had his work featured on CNN, Popular Mechanics, Smithsonian Magazine, Road & Track Magazine, the official Pinterest blog, the official eBay Motors blog, BuzzFeed, and many more.
Silodrome was founded by Ben back in 2010, in the years since the site has grown to become a world leader in the alternative and vintage motoring sector, with millions of readers around the world and many hundreds of thousands of followers on social media.
