WTF Friday: Off Road In Style

DaveT -
It's been said anything worth doing is worth doing in style and clearly that was the approach used when this Rolls Royce Silver Shadow was conceived and built. After finishing it's first (and only) Baja race in 1984 the RR sat for 17 years before retried (and reported late) stunt man Chuck Strange scooped it up.

Event Coverage: Street Classics 2013 Season Opener

DaveT -
Got the opportunity to check out the Street Classics 2013 season opener on Saturday. I ended up leaving the house a little bit late which meant that sadly I missed some of the people who ducked out early to go onto other long weekend festivities. The smaller amount of cars didn't bother me too much however because last year I didn't make it to nearly enough of these events so I was just happy to be out.

Theme Tuesdays: Local-Hero.jp

DaveT -
I've always found the relationship between Japan's automotive scene and the one in North America is pretty interesting. We copy them, they copy us, they copy us copying them, we copy them copying us copying them. It's like a never ending feedback loop that more often than not leads to a lot of cool cars.

Event Coverage: Driven 2013

DaveT -
With Driven in the books the 2013 show season is now "officially" underway in Calgary. Eager to get old man winter out the door this years driven took place a little earlier than last year which meant a few people had to scramble to get their cars ready for the show. However 250+ cars ended up making it to the Calgary Oval even with the accelerated timeline and Mike once again did a great job of capturing the show in the artistic way only he can.

WTF Friday: Never meanin’ no harm.

DaveT -
If there's any one car I've got just a hint of a purist mindset about it's the General Lee. Most of the ones I've seen modified in anyway that differs from the original on screen look simply don't do a thing for me. The one I'm posting today seems to be an odd exception to my 'rule' as it combines my love for wheel standers with my adoration of the classic General aesthetic.

Theme Tuesdays: Front End Swaps and Conversions

DaveT -
Today is the day I make good on last Friday's promise of some more favourable front end swaps to balance out the more horrendous. Front (and rear for that matter) swaps are always going to be somewhat controversial, and a matter of personal preference, so I have no doubt some of you are not going to agree with a few of these picks. As always feel free to express your opinions, or share ones I may have missed, in the comments below.

Reader’s Rides: Amrit’s 300C

DaveT -
300C's get a bad rap because bad rappers often throw large, narrow, chrome wheels under them at stock height and call it a day. Put in the right hands however the 300C can be a very fine looking luxury sedan. Amrit recently sent in a few photo of his bagged 300 sitting on 21x11 and 21x12.5 Avant Garde f440 wheels and I've got to say there isn't much I would have done different if it were mine.

Featured Ride: Matt’s 2001 S2000

DaveT - 8
It's interesting to consider whether or not Honda knew just how popular the s2000 would become when they released it in 1999. Since it's birth the the car has been modified 1000 times over with literally no end in sight. It's really remarkable what people are doing to these cars around the globe and right here in Toronto. Matt, a long time Honda enthusiast and show veteran, has been working on his s2000 ever since he sold his Civic and the current revision of this constantly changing project is simply stunning.

Emotionally attatched

DaveT - 5
I saw this Mazda 3 on Work Emotion CR-Kai's a few weeks back and it really reminded me why I was so heavily considering these wheels along with RPF-1s. The look really suits the Mazda 3 and the color these have been powder coated really helps them stand out among the many black and white versions that are floating around.
