“Mike Terwilliger is my personal hero,” said Calderone. “He comes from the same town I do, Massapequa. And I was just so proud.”
Mike views the popularity of motorcycling and the resultant television coverage phenomenal for business. “ People who never in their lives would have bought a motorcycle now go get one, and guess what? Well, you have to personalize it. Change the seat and bars. In the end, it has to look cool. I have a good aspect of the business because everyone will always need paint.” Click here for Iron Horse Magazine.
The paint on Tommy's chopper was the handiwork of award-winning painter Mike Terwilliger of Visual Impact.

...Mike broke out some new S&S wheels and rods, and set them in the polished STD cases. Next, he bored the S&S cylinders and reworked the H-D heads so he could send them to Color Life for a protective layer of silver powdercoat. While they were under way, the guys at Color Life took the time to polish the fins before sending them back to Mike. The shiny, new cylinders and heads were slid over the S&S pistons and capped off with a set of chromed Shovelhead rocker boxes. Bringing the motor to life is an S&S carb, Crane cam, Dyna ignition, and a set of Mike's own hand-built exhaust pipes....
