His father, my grandfather, was also a car guy, owning a handful of fast and fun cars when my dad was a youngster. Aside from my little brother (pictured on my left), nobody else in our family…

    As something of an experiment, before we departed for Monterey, I gave my father one of my spare cameras and told him to take pictures of the stuff he found interesting. He’s not exactly a photographer, and he’s mostly a domestic car guy, so this has potential to be interesting. It’s an insight into the…

We walked around the Russo & Steele lot, ambled through a handful of the RM cars on the plaza, and attended the…

    The Monterey Motorsport Reunion, colloquially known as “The Historics”, was celebrating Ford’s glorious GT350 this year. Not the new one, though there were a bunch of those floating around because, you know, cross promotion and corporate synergy and all that jazz. Anyway, the OG GT350 has always been my favorite mustang, because it was the…

    Starting the day with a Relient Robin is hardly a bad way to start the day. I’ve seen only a handful of these in person, and I’m always geeked to see one. While Monterey Car Week is always about super cars and vintage racing and concours d’elegance, I always love showing up and seeing the…

    I’m not sure what keeps attracting me to these VW Karmann Ghias, but I just love them. Especially when they are prepared for racing, and especially especially when they were raced in-period. This particular buggy was built for and run in the 1979 and 1980 Baja 1000 events. VW KGs always looked a bit sportier…
