Wow






Full on fascinating.





The bike is a runner again.

It's 45 degrees out...

And raining.



So, yeah...

El Camino Monday






What is this - a desert racing late El Camino?

Oh, jeez...


Now, outside of my dune buggy fixation, I have no reason to ever ponder anything like a desert racing rig...
But this thing punches so many buttons in my head.


It's wrong on top of wrong and so right.

Needlepoint








My winter threats to take up needlepoint are still rattling around my bean...
Though spring may be springing upon the scene, for real, these days.


Maybe next winter.

This seems like an awesome idea that will inevitably end badly...

But awesome, nonetheless.

Mike G rocking some font-flow...
Song is cool, too.

CB Geebies


I am going to try to make up for doing a Mustang post by tossing out this CB.


I had one of these way back in Seattle...
Somewhat less full tilt as this monster, from Racefit, for sure.

Still it had the period good stuff and my fiddling.  Not sure my fiddling did a lot, in retrospect, but make for conversations points with other motorcycle nerds.
Maybe my favorite bike, really.

Dropped a valve on it and sold it to a restorer dude, to thin the herd...

Memories.

Mustang Monday


Remember this era?
Eighties IMSA racing was the shit.

I spent a lot of weekends at the track, back then.  My mom recognized that I maybe liked that as much as any outdoor activity, so I was watching cars go in circles on the regular...
During this wide, flat fender flare era.

It was awesome.




I don't really have any affinity for Mustangs, except for maybe these things.
They are outrageous, obnoxious and were intoxicating to my still adolescent mind.

I wonder how many of these are lingering under tarps, in the back corners of shops or garages...

It's getting hot in here...

Can't get that damned song out of my head, for some reason.

Yay Easter





Here comes Peter Rattletail,
Slithering down the bunny trail,

Slithery, slothery,
Easter is on it's way...



What is the deal with Easter, again?

But just one glass for me.

Get the Shot






Working in the motion pictures will be rewarding and fun, they said...

This movie will look great on your reel, they said...

Filming race cars will be cool and exciting, they said...







Before the invention of GoPro, CGI or even camera boom trucks...
I guess you just tied your camera operator on to whatever dangerous thing you wanted a shot of?
Was a camera mount too expensive?
This picture generates so many questions.

Miura Monday











Yeah, I know all about crappy garages too...

Here is a classy/gassy art post for you...

Visiting here is like going to a museum.


That is part of a Japanese scroll, from about 1600.
