Featured Ride: Misha’s 1996 Civic EX

ChrisJ -
To the untrained eye Misha’s 1996 Honda Civic EX may just look like just some suspension work, a gold Nardi steering wheel, and a beautiful set of fully polished Volk CV Pros. However those keen on...

Featured Ride: Dean’s 1991 Mazda Miata

ChrisJ -
Dean’s 1991 Mazda Miata has a laundry list of modifications that make it look just right. Everything is carefully considered by its owner to be just the way he wants it. The first thing one might notice are the CCW Classic wheels with 245/35/16R European spec Toyos. Yes, that's right, 245 width. That means the wheels must be pretty wide!

Theme Tuesdays: Vintage JDM

DaveT - 10
A few weeks ago, before Japan was devastated by intense tsunami's and earthquakes, my friend Aidan put forth the suggestion that I do a post on vintage JDM rides and even sent in a few pics to get me started. Japan's had a lot of influence the way we tune our cars here in North America and are thus held in pretty high regard. What's happened there currently is terrible but I have no doubt in my mind that years down the road, once it's all cleaned up Japan will emerge stronger than ever.

Theme Tuesday: Riveted Overfenders

DaveT - 10
Posting the AW11 MR2 yesterday, along with a car I saw Sunday night, made me realize that there has never been a Theme Tuesday devoted to riveted on overfenders. A smooth wide body will always have it's place, but there is something to be said for the lasting industrial appeal of over fenders. Done right they can often be the modification that really sets a car apart while enabling the use of generously proportioned wheels and tires.

Featured Ride: Taylor’d Customs 57 Chevy 3200

DaveT - 4
If this truck could talk prior to becoming part of the Taylor'd Customs fleet it would have told the same stories any other 54 year old truck would. Tales of journeys to and from work or the farm, first dates, and perhaps a trip to a hospital for a child birth (or two) are nothing out of the ordinary of a truck this vintage. Dragging frame from from Ajax Ontario to Ohio though? That is a little less typical and a welcome turn of the page in the history of this awesome 57 Chevy 3200.
