Orange County Choppers are mistakenly believed as a California based firm than a New York based company. Orange County California has been illustrious from it's own Tv publicity with varied movies and shows being based on the area. However, many forget of Orange County, Ny.
Orange County Choppers has also started a side job as to having a family steel manufacturing company. This would make sense, since Occ is all about practice built bikes. However, the Orange County Ironworks was founded in 1970, way before Teutul began to build the bikes. It wasn't until the late 1990's that they moved from the steel firm to the bicycle business. The first bike ever made by the firm was called True blue. It made its first appearance at the Daytona Bike Oktoberfest in 1999.

Since then, the company's popularity has grown. The firm was even asked by the United States Air Force to make a 0,000 bike called the Raptor. The Raptor bike made its collective debut in March of 2005. Raptor is around ten feet long and is modeled after the F/A-22 Raptor and was completed with the United States Air Force Symbols and a riveted gas tank.

The bike also has its exhaust law and rear view mirrors in the shape of jets. The reason why the United States Air Force hired the Orange County Choppers to make a bike was in hopes to reach the public. It was a promotional tool for the Air Force, but it was also great for the Occ because they got Nation Wide Publicity and has come to be a name around the world.

Orange County Choppers now has it's name on everything from t-shirts to key rings to the United States Air force. Even though this firm has only been around for a exiguous under decade, Orange County Choppers are still addition their firm and sales and have industrialized a gold-mine business. The Orange County Choppers are so famous, that even after the firm dissolves, habitancy will still be talking about the Occ.
