Jesse James looking for a Schiada

[cakemoto]

My buddy jimmy built some gas tanks for him that he Mass Produced.I hung out with him for an hour or so on the queen Mary one time when he donated some gas money for a local boat.

 

[cakemoto]

Dude has my respect for his skills, period. He knows quality, knows his materials, knows his market. Mad respect for his work.

He likes what he likes as well. His merc is top 3 in my book, ever, coming from generations of hot rod and show car builders.

He also like what he likes, dgaf what others think, and everything is nicely done. His VW hatchback was sano. No one would expect to see the vanilla gorilla in an aircooled. Nice taste in boats.

Hes living the dream. Left Ca, owns property, a sick shop, shop dogs, and nice guns. I could do without the monkey, but that's me. They creep me out a little.

Huge respect for the guy. Also an IE native that still has homies in the area.

You mean notch? He didn’t build that car.A black gentleman owned that car way before him it was fully restored all he did was a stereo at sound good stereos in California

 

[rivrrts429]

He wanted one of my slant back Humvees and offered to trade what I thought was going to be multiple custom 1911’s for the Humvee which I would’ve been OK with. But it turned out that he felt that one custom 1911 was worth $65,000. He is very impressed with his work and while his craftsmanship is pretty amazing if he is out rages on his prices I can go fuck himself

I’m thinking the 1911 would be the better investment than the Humvee over a longer period of time.

Sorry yes, notchback. My Auto correct has no VW vocab built in.

Looked like a nice car. Thought it was out of ordinary for his style. Always dug his 36 coupe. Merc is my favorite.

 

[Wheeler]

John Paul is an interesting cat. He has some bad ass houses. His Hawaii house is epic.

This is also his wife.

Shes hot and all but I gotta think if your at a dinner party the whole time you gotta be thinking to yourself "dont look up" lol.

Did a quick search and this popped up.

 

[SOCALCRICKETT]

Kinda surprised at how many dudes know what is going on in celebs personal lives as well. Lol

I have always thought the guy was talented and a marketing machine.

I don’t know him personally.. so I don’t care what he does with his wives, ex wives etc

Lol, no shit. Like my pops always said, if it doesn't make you money or get you laid, why stress about it

Not really. I sold it for that price cash. Find me someone who wants to buy a JJ 1911 for 65k. Crickets.

 

[attitude]

Yes. My good friend just flew out to Austin about a month ago and filmed the first episode of the new series. They turned a sailboat into a vdrive with a blower motor. Lol

I guess I’ll be the spoiler....with 18 minutes left they couldn’t get the motor to fire up. It was a bust! [emoji1304] I’m not sure what they end up doing with the failed projects. It would have never worked anyways. The sailboat doesn’t have strakes on the bottom. It would’ve literally plowed the water.

Time will tell. As long as you got what you’re looking for is all that matters.

 

[Cdog]

Have you seen his custom gun builds?

Some funny business with his suppressor claims... Industry people jumped his shit on those.

 

[D19]

And there was this where he took an Ultra turned it upside down and raced it...

Pretty sure that's why she left NHRA, lost her main $$ sponsor with that deal.

She is now back with Rokit as her sponsor, another company her father owns.

On the off chance you're curious, that sail boat is a Lancer 27 PS (Powersailer)

 

[throttle]

Why wouldn’t he just build one from scratch?
Are Shiada so expensive even Jesse James can’t afford a new one?

maybe he doesn't want to wait for "2 weeks"

might actually be more like having a baby and take 9 months.

Bitchen Ultra

 

[SoCalDave]

Don't forget the Tequila!
She is Heiress to a Billionaire Empire
DeJoria is also the founder of tequila maker Patrón Spirits Co.

Yep, that's where the $$$$$$$$$ at...

 

[Gelcoater]

You gotta wait a couple years for Lee (actually Stan) to build you a new one. If you don't want to wait you gotta buy used...

I’m just guessing here but I don’t think JJ wants a complete boat?
The guy is a metal fab maniac.
Stan just needs to build him a hull.
Imagine the rail kit, engine plates, and internal V-Drive hardware, etc that guy could conjure.
And, he already has an engine ready

 

[Gelcoater]

Agreed!
Saw that and thought Damn!
Dennis doesn’t fuck around!

I didn’t know that was an actual model, I just thought someone rigged up a decent size motor to their sailboat. Either way it’s pretty impressive

First time I saw one I thought WTF, a sailbote on plane ? I used to see one on Havasu, they were rather popular as a trailerable sail boat.

He'll need the special z engine rails that nobody but Schiada has access to. The Z rails are like unicorn horns and not available to meer mortals. The tooling alone must have cost millions to produce.

Lancer 27 PS. My buddy had one in the early 2000's and kept it on Lake Mead. What a trip for a sailboat.
RIP Larry

Knowing how Jessie is, it will not be like any other Schiada. I look forward to seeing it.

 

[Get415]

So when do we get more pics/ video of @Dennis-19 ultra? Thats a bad mofo

He could just mill them from a solid chunk of billet. It's just money right ....

It just wouldn't be the same. I for one look at every Schiada I run across to make sure that it has Z channel in it. It's really a marvel of modern engineering. I've been saving my money for the past few years and by next year I should have enough for three feet of it.

Thank you. Here's one I took recently while waiting for fuel.

Do you think that Stan may Not want a New Schiada "DONE" in the manner it will be?

 

[Swain]

We just did some wheels for him that will be on Monster Garage,. Interesting car they are building to go realllyyyy fast. I can't say anything about the episode until it airs.

 

[Wheeler]

how fast is Really fast?

something like that but like an el camino forgot what the heck it was.

What manner is that?
You mean...custom?
I’m no big James fan but the man can fabricate on a level higher than most.
Maybe Stan doesn’t want to be shown up?

Personally I always thought being a custom boat bullder meant making customers happy.
Perhaps Jesse James would be better off building one of Danny’s boats.

Well, I guess when the name Schida, comes to mind it is a very Traditional out of the ordinary Boat exterior. I meant if he would mess with the body of the boat. I have seen some Schida rigging that was second to none and am sure JJ can do some creative things along those lines. I just meant like flipping a boat upside down type of almost Gimmick stuff.

Or a WestCoast mother fucker on the deck and sides.

Lots of Schiada's have been heavily modified, nothing wrong or sacrilegious about doing whatever you want with your own hull.

I know of several boats that have modded hulls/strakes etc, never seen a peep out of the members here about it.

When you SELL a product, once it is out of his hands, why would he care?

I'm sure it would be much more like "Central Texas MF" or "Texas Hill Country MF" now....

They don’t view boat builds like you do. It’s less about the business aspect and more about the final product. Their builds are their art. It’s a three year build in a lot of cases.

Oh I agree they are works of art, the rigging is drool worthy haha!

I have built enough customs of my own as far as hot rods/resto mods for clients, I know the feeling.

There are enough out there that he'll have no issues finding what he wants, unless it is a new hull from them.

Personally, I'd never work with a builder if they had an attitude about their products, exclusivity is a double edged sword.

If that was true Brummett, or my Father, or Prime Marine would have never been able to buy bare hulls. And that is no slight against Stan or Schiada, who build a great product, but if you pick any of those 4 (Stan included) you are going to end up with 4 totally different styles of rigging, each with their own subjective high points.

Lee / Schiada are very selective about who they will sell a bare hull to for a couple reasons: liability, and value of the brand. They don't want some hack doing a slap together build that gives the product a bad reputation.

Now they will certainly sell you a completely rigged boat, and what you do with it at that point is up to you, but it makes a big difference if you have to drop 200+ for a rigged boat, or 50 for bare hull. They have no obligation to sell anyone a bare hull.

I don’t disagree but like Jesse who believes his 1911 guns are worth $75k (or whatever it was), he’s not targeting the average guy who loves a Kimber.

Jesse likely appreciates the level of detail and time put into these boats and understands why they are what they are.
