On Saturday, May 11th, in the Year of our Pork 2019, I was fortunate to make the pilgrimage to Luftgekühlt 6. I’d never been to one, but now that I’m a Luftyfooler I figured it was imperative. I was a little apprehensive because I tend to shy away from “scenes” and am not a car show guy, but this was so accessible…

Luftgekühlt 6 super dump inbound.

Today’s awesome drive reports from Davesaddiction and ImmoralMinority have inspired me to share my own, for the recent inaugural Targa 805 rally. A few weeks ago my buddy Frank, owner of the killer Mk1 Scirocco seen below, put on a one-day drive through some of San Luis Obispo and Monterey County’s best roads. Dubbed…

How goes it? My car is broken and work sucks, but music feeds the soul. This is The Main Squeeze nailing Led Zeppelin’s No Quarter. I don’t think I’ve ever heard a better cover (including other ones by these guys like War Pigs and Have A Cigar), it captures the haunting nature of the original without copying it…

Last October, one week after Rennsport Reunion VI, I fulfilled a childhood dream and got a 911. I had kissed the dream goodbye, given their insane acceleration in value in recent years, so I wasn’t looking for one or “in the market.” But then it’s not just any 911: one humble, scruffy, high mile 1982 911SC has always…

Cheers Oppo, long time no post. I done did a thing. The odometer broke at 231k miles and it needs a shitload of work but it’s mine and I love it. There’s a long story here, I promise to tell it soon once I actually get good pictures. Hope everyone is well. 

Something fun in today...

Did some stuff with toy cars today. Oh and real ones too...

I’m just going to re-use these for fun. No scoring necessary. 

A sentimental Sunday with this one as well, it was among my very favorite toys as a kid. I thought I’d lost it to the sandboxes of time, but unearthed it in a box of random crap when looking for some Radwood backdrop material. I took this truck everywhere, I remember playing with it not only around my hometown in…

Well, not so much rejects as stuff I just didn’t get around to posting. Enjoy!

It’s still Sunday here in California, so dangit, I’m posting this for Radcast. This, if you didn’t know, is the single greatest car ever designed. It is perfect. There is no argument. I hear you saying, “but what about the...”. No. You are wrong. Pinifarina’s finest work, surrounding a transverse 3.0L V8 and a gated…

This is a 1/24 kit I built back in the day, one of a few I’ve kept. I imagine this would be about the bitchinest car one could Radwood with. I mean, it’s a C4 Corvette, it’s got period frippery on it, and the colors are so 90's it hurts. Perfect.

So it begins...
