Event Coverage: Battle At The Bridge 2014 – Pt. 1

Occasionally people ask what I think makes a great show, and my answer typically centres around variety and  the feel of a backyard BBQ. As someone who likes a wide variety of cars and tuning styles...

Theme Tuesdays: Body Dropped…..Cars!?

In the truck community body dropping (custom guys argue that it is called channelling but that's a discussion for another day) is pretty much par for the course, but among the car driving population it's...

Theme Tuesdays: Volkswagen Caddys

Eurokracy must have had a lasting impression on me because when it came to this week's Theme Tuesday first generation Volkswagen Caddys came to mind and simply wouldn't leave. Clean first generation examples are a bit...

Theme Tuesdays: Eurokracy 2014 Engine Bays

I'm not sure what it is about the European car community, but they really seem to have the swapped, tucked, shaved, and polished engine bay game on lock. It was a real treat to walk around...

Theme Tuesdays: Rear Wheel Drive Conversions Pt. 1

After posting the rear wheel drive Sunbird a few weeks ago, and being shown a rear wheel drive first generation Cavalier Z28 shortly after, I felt it was high time for a rear wheel drive...

Turbo Ghia

While pulling together this week's Theme Tuesday I found myself browsing Kris B's facebook page and as I was clicking through I noticed a certain wild looking Ghia kept appearing. Known as the Green Thunderbolt, this...

R32

For whatever reason when I first came across a photo of this R32 I thought it was a Photoshop, or at the very best a very good rendering. I'm not sure if it was the...

Theme Tuesdays: Tripoding – 2

Revisiting another older theme this week with a selection of cars with three (or less) wheels on the ground. Some because they are low and others because gravity, speed, and traction are fighting it out...

Event Coverage: The 2014 Detroit AutoRama

The Detroit Autorama is a completely unique show experience because it covers such a broad spectrum of classic car, truck, and hot rod builds. You've got your several hundred thousand dollar, no expense spared, shop based,...

Theme Tuesdays: Cars With Mouths – 3

Whenever I check the site stats and see that the "Cars With Mouths Theme Tuesday series" is still one of the most visited I can't help but chuckle a little bit because I initially thought no one would really be into it. I guess the fact that we are now into round three of said series goes to show the longevity of the famous tiger shark art, and various other forms of automotive grins.

Theme Tuesdays: My Favorite Photos of 2013

Can't really think of a better way to send off a year of Theme Tuesday posts than with a collection of my own personal favourite photos of 2013. One day I might go back and count how many photos I take in a season, but I do know it's quite a few so narrowing down my picks was a little difficult but I am pretty happy with the list below.

Theme Tuesdays: That’s Static!? (Pt.1)

Weighing in on the static vs. air debate isn't really something I like to do because I feel people should get down how they get down and not worry about how, but I will say that there is something to be said for a clean static car with spot on fitment. I'm not talking cars that are easily identified as static from fifteen feet away due to smashed bumpers, questionable panel gaps, and catchy slogan covered munched quarters.
