This past Saturday, I had the opportunity to attend the 32nd annual Vintage VW Show & Swap, put on by the good folks at Cascade Kombis. I’m not the biggest VW aficionado, but I love a car show no matter what’s on display. I got up bright and early, grabbed my coffee and camera,…

Hot Rods & Dogs – The Sting Ray

For most people, the 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray needs no introduction. Just say the word “Corvette,” and almost anyone you ask could instantly describe some iteration of the iconic marque for you. Many would likely tell you about a car just like this one, with its long, tapering fastback, rounded fenders, and retractable headlights.

Let me begin by saying I am the last person to offer advice on motorcycles; my dad owned several bikes when I was a kid, but I never rode them, much less worked on them. As an adult, I only know bikes by brand, and even then I’m sometimes wrong. Now that we’ve got that…

You know, craigslisters can be a interesting bunch. Something about the anonymity of the internet and the faceless format of craigslist brings out the best and worst in people. In the cars&trucks forum, it’s no different; owners from clueless teenagers to used car salesman to the blue Grand Am guy try to get your attention…
