With everything that went on in 2014 (son born, car write off, events, features, SEMA,procrastination) the Official Stance Is Everything Store fell by the wayside. There was still product in there, but the design was...

Theme Tuesdays: Buick Grand Nationals (and Regal T Types)

If you're wondering why a Buick Grand National Theme Tuesday has taken so long, it's because even a devout non purist like myself questions whether or not they should be left stock. In general modified GNs are...

The English Gentelman

This has been in the works for a minute, but Blair is in the final stages of sending his '57 over the pond to England. I love this truck and it will be sad to see...

WTF Friday: Best Of Both Worlds?

Not too long ago I was tagged an instavideo (embedded below) of a bagged third generation Ford Ranger that uniquely articulated in the middle. It was unlike anything I'd ever seen before and I instantly gave...

Boost makes everything better and today's Theme Tuesday focuses on some of the more unique turbo set-ups I can currently think of. The cars today were selected either because the application was creative, the set-up...

WTF Friday: Comic Books & Poster Cars

Like many mid 80s babies growing up one of my favourite cartoons was X-Men, and the walls of my room were covered in posters of Italian exotics. Of the X-Men characters Wolverine was my favourite...

Simple Simon

Supremes (or comparable 5 spokes), thin whites, and a bit of low. If a more dependable solution exists for turning a classic early American barge into a head turner I sure would like to see...

Theme Tuesdays: VW Harlequin’s Part II

In trying to keep some variety in the Theme Tuesdays (and posts in general) I decided to keep the import and American Theme Tuesdays on the hard drive this week and do something else. Originally the plan was to finalize the Type A Theme Tuesday but after stumbling across the first Harlequin in today's post that was put on the back burner. I never expected this theme to make it to a second round but I'm glad it did.

WTF Friday: Medieval Death Sedan?

This has been a crazy week for the Toronto area, the upcoming G8 and G20 summits have turned the downtown core into a media and security frenzy. In close proximity to the summit you have a mix of people who don't care, people who care too much, and police in riot gear all milling around, and as if things were not volatile enough mother nature decided Wednesday would be a great day for an earthquake. The ground shaking must have jarred some things loose in this local nut's brain because he was caught cruising around in Hyundai with a crazy home made container on his roof filled with weapons, details inside.

If you didn't win this time don't worry this won't be the last time SecheMedia.ca and I are hoping to do bi-monthly and eventually monthly giveaways, now onto the WTF! (Guessing contest inside)

WTF Friday: It attacks in the night

People who build sleepers have to be some of the most creative and dedicated car people period. The dedication it takes to do something ridiculous to your car but keep it as stock looking as possible so as not to give away your secret is nothing short of incredible. Sleeper builds are always creative, interesting, and motivating. Motivating because after seeing the fabrication skills someone went through to get their idea to work it makes doing simple bolt-ons seem like nothing worth complaining about.

Drop and Run

I have been pretty busy today with some job hunting, housework, and small technical additions to the blog but that's no reason to leave you guys hanging! Here is a trio of recent hotness I have spotted to fill the gap until I write my event preview for Scrape By The Lake later tonight. Enjoy.
