Ned On Wheels

Nick Hawtin's Ned Kelly Custom 1994 XL Sportster

Rutherglen's most famous blacksmith, Nick Hawtin, focused his attention on to a mild mannered 1994 Harley Davidson XL Sportster and turned it into a snarling, angry outlaw that even Mr Ned Kelly would have been proud to ride. And if your own wheels are in need of some tender loving cruising then you can drop Nick a line at njhawtin@bigpond.net.au as he's happy to quote on customisation work.

Nick Hawtin's Ned Kelly Custom 1994 XL Sportster

While news reports abound with stories of Ned Kelly's missing bones not a word is mentioned about his stolen skull? Back in December 1978, Kelly's cranium was lifted from the Old Melbourne Gaol in what appeared to be a university student prank. One of the culprits was rumoured to be an ex-prime minister's son, yet to this day no one knows what happened to it. While a dirt farmer in Western Australia claims he has the skull buried in a tin can in his backyard, evidence has consistently disproved his claim. For while he allegedly carries one of the skull's teeth on a necklace, it is in fact Ernest Knox's skull (hence the EK engraved on the skull). This EK was executed in 1894 for murder, after the shooting death of a jeweller's son during a bungled armed robbery. Either way, they are human remains and the befuddled Western Australian police should have confiscated this skull when they first heard his claim.

This re-release includes an extra 30 minutes of special features beautifully presented in a new and exciting cover design. The viewer now has the privilege of accompanying Ian Jones, an eminent Kelly historian and author, as he revisits such sites as the Kelly and Police caves, Glenrowan, Stringybark Creek and Joe Byrne and Aaron Sherritt's secret hide out in Byrnes Gully. The main feature is also an exciting journey through the events of Ned Kelly’s life and the country that shaped it, told through rare photographs and press drawings. Showcasing many beautiful locations of North Eastern Victoria, the DVD provides an accurate guide for the traveller interested in visiting the places where these remarkable events occurred.
