Lot 228: A Pair of Contemporary Nuts and Bolts Style Model Motorcycles

A pair of contemporary model motorcycles constructed from industrial hardware components. The sculptures are assembled from various steel and iron elements including drive chains for tyres, hex nuts for engine components, and coil springs for the front forks. The bodywork consists of formed sheet metal with a two-tone finish featuring dark patinated surfaces and polished copper-tone accents. One model is configured as a single-seat chopper with angular ape hanger handlebars, rectangular mirrors, a rear saddlebag, and a tall antenna post. The second model features a contoured two-up seat, curved handlebars with circular mirrors, a rear sissy bar, and a twin-pipe exhaust system. Both items are static decorative models with fixed wheels and no internal mechanisms.
