Here you are, Androo, just in case you needed more for your AMG GT shoot!
Just-In-Time Mailfind: #22 Porsche 917
This car won the hardest race in the world in 1971. In 2017 it won again, by arriving all the way from Ireland just in time to accompany me while watching the 85th edition of the famed 24 Hours of Le Mans.
French Friday: Michel Vaillant Pushing His Vaillante Around La Sarthe
Just some night time shots of Mr. Vaillant in his 1961 Vaillante. I’m finally figuring out my lens flare app a little bit!

Because Matchbox is running their popular custom contest again!
Woking Wednesday: McLaren F1 GTR Ueno Clinic
This car won the 1995 24 Hr of Le Mans, as we all know, and have all read about ad nauseam, but it’s just such a beast of a car I couldn’t help but pull it out.

Teutonic Tuesday: Allan McNish and the 1998 Le Mans-Winning Porsche 911 GT1
Edu-petrolhead’s post on Rubens Barichello (who will be racing in this year’s Le Mans 24H in the LMP2 category in the #29 car with Racing Team Nederland alongside Dutch legend Jan Lammers and Frits van Eerd) showed a fun way to highlight a car using the driver’s carreer. So let’s dig into one of my favorite Scottish…
Dioramonday
It’s a simple one, and not yet complete, but since I made some progress on it and finally found two of the three Raceday cars I’ve been looking for, I had to try it out.
Le Mans Tuesday: 2014 Porsche 911 RSR (991)
Since I got told pretty vehemently by Jobjoris to post something Le Mans-related, here is another Teutonic entry for today.
Teutonic Tuesday: Trio of 356 Outlaws Finished
I didn’t have time to photograph any Le Mans cars yesterday, so instead I’ll show you guys these three Outlaws that I finished over the weekend.
Thursday on the Thames (Or Whatever River/Waterway Is Close To Liverpool, I Guess the River Mersey?)
These are the three best Beatles albums. Needless to say, I was stoked when I found out they would be part of the Beatles series, but not so stoked that I couldn’t find them.
Wednesday Haiku: 18 Days Away!
Racing gets closer
Teutonic Tuesday: 3(56) WIPs
Went a little 356-crazy this weekend... I recently got these three from R32rennsport so they were still sitting on my work bench, and I just couldn’t help myself.
Nissan Skyline 2000 GT-X Van Build
Start to finish, this may have been my most successful wagon/shooting brake conversion yet. I love how this Skyline van I built for Witheredcustomz turned out and I hope he’ll love it just as much!
Favorite Onboard Video
This is mine, Stefan Bellof wrestling a Porsche 956 around Spa-Francorchamps.
Teutonic Tuesday: THANK YOU WITHEREDCUSTOMZ!!!
My man Witheredcustomz and I are in the middle of a custom-for-custom trade, and his end came in on Friday. There was a TON of amazing RAOK stuff in the box that I will share later, but here are the two customs, because they are insane.
Aston Martin DB5 in Race Trim
I started this build a long time ago (April of 2016, to be exact), as a second attempt to make a bumperless DB5. The last one turned out nice, but the gap between the base and the body bothered me. Here is the reworked version.
Le Mans Is Almost Here
So to start getting into the spirit, I took out my old friend, the Gozzy Kremer Racing Porsche 935 K3 that DNF’d in the 1980 version of Le Mans.
