Untitled

Is it Teutul or Teutel? The article used both spellings. If anybody can dig up a photo of his left upper arm with his name tattooed on it, that should provide the real spelling.

"Dodgy eye"

Anyone want to clarify that. --71.198.129.77 17:11, 9 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Strabismus perhaps? 83.253.56.242 23:22, 9 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

King of the Hill

The Teutuls, SR,JR and Mikey all appeared as themselves on the Episode "Hank Fixes Everything" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0819186/

Anyone wanna add this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Havoc1310 (talk • contribs) 17:42, 22 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oldschool?

Paul Teutel ist often talking about the oldschool bikes he has build in the good old times. Now i read here OCC ist founded 1999. What about his bikebuilder-career bevor OCC in 1999? Ab bikebuilder who started in 1999 ist not oldschool. And someone who builds bikes for fun does not have the credibility the show talks about.

There is a gap... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.63.122.52 (talk) 23:56, 18 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The old style senior refers to is just that, a style of bike. He actually started the business out of his house in the basement building bikes. There is an episode where the Teutul's go to Mikey's house (seniors old house) and they talked about times past. It was being on television that gave OCC the boost to be what they are`today. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.175.145.177 (talk) 00:41, 28 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Schools

Paul, where did you go to school in Yonkers? Where did you live? I am from Yonkers, moved to Hart ave in 1951, when I was 5, and in 1960 to Martha ave, on the Bronx line. STEVE flexmcgoo@aol.com —Preceding unsigned comment added by STEVE1103 (talk • contribs) 02:17, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Paul went to school in Pearl River NY.  Dropped out-did not graduate. If you check Pearl River HS Class of 1968 yearbook, you will find a senior picture of him, but that is as far he went.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.15.10.179 (talk) 00:57, 28 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Prostate Cancer?

Is there a source for this claim, i have never that he has cancer —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.191.32.109 (talk) 20:22, 29 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Death Hoax??? Check this YouTube video out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGbsZ3v0J8M . It claims Teutel SR died from pancreatic cancer on June 24, 2012. Note there is no sound. The last episode of American Chopper aired at the end of 2012. "New York Post" article from !2/07/12 confirms this: http://www.nypost.com/p/entertainment/tv/end_of_the_ride_ghjjkH7l9kD78S5Xq3CmwL .johncheverly 15:35, 16 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
