Craigslist: 1961 Rat Rod Death Trap
/
/
comments
When I heard that an acquaintance of mine was considering getting rid of his Corvair, as much as I hope he ends up keeping it, I couldn’t help but share this sweet and well priced Chevy Corvair. It’s a funny and well written ad, so there’s not much for me to add here. The seller…

Taking a Look Back: First Show of the Year
/

comments
Despite how eventful this year has been, some of the photos I’ve taken have not progressed to being sorted and edited until very recently. One of these events, which I attended back in January, was a local car show called the 2015 Series Open Car & Truck Show at “The Shops at Wiregrass,” a small…

Project Car SOTU: Roadster, The '95 Mazda Miata
/
/
comments
Hard to believe that it’s already been almost 3 months since the last update on Roadster. As much as I’d like to say that a lot of progress has been made in autocross preparations since then, it really hasn’t. Life has just gotten in the way lately, as it does at times. That’s not to say…

Weekend Edition: The Art Car Museum of Houston
/
/
comments
Often when I take a trip, I’ll have a look around to see what local car culture is available to see and experience. Such was the case last week, when I landed in Houston, Texas, for my sister’s wedding in Austin. Something very different from the cars I’d normally be checking out was available in the form of…

Weekend Edition: V.I.S.I.T. – Sebring Edition
/
/
comments
Often when you attend a major race, such as the 12 Hours of Sebring, there is just as much to see off the track as there is on it. There were rare models cruising the grounds and parking areas of Sebring, devoted entirely to notable makes and models, such as Porsche, Corvette, Audi, and BMW. Each of…

When in Doubt, Camp Out: A First-Timer's View of the 12 Hours of Sebring
/
/
comments
The folks who were there just to cover the final race were probably there and gone within 24 hours, but we camped out early to check out the full experience and to place ourselves within the non-stop 24-hour party that is the 12 Hours of Sebring. For me, it would be a first; three days of wonderful…

There have been many ups and downs with this project and it’s great to say that we’re starting the year off back on an upswing. It took some work to get here but take a look after the jump and you’ll see how far we’ve come.

Wagon Wednesday – Zombie Ford Falcon Surf Wagon
/
/
comments
When I first saw this zombie-fied surf wagon at a quick glance, I thought it was a Corvair. I made a quick turn around and pulled into the empty lot next to the car wash and found in front of me a first generation Ford Falcon station wagon and this particular one looks to be…

Rough weather, heavy rain, and wind greeted the race weekend in St Petersburg this year. Despite that, Takuma Sato was able to capture pole position for the IndyCar race. On Sunday, the skies cleared up for race day and a cool breeze set in for what would be the 10th year of the running of…

Our Cars: Thunder Bunny's New Kicks
/
/
comments
This Candy White 2007 Volkswagen Rabbit, owned by my wife, is affectionately known as the Thunder Bunny. It’s served faithfully as our daily driver for the past six years, an end of the year model that stuck around the lot until 2008 when we ran across it in just the right color and options (white,…
