Probably The Best Grille Ever




I mean seriously, i don't think anyone was even close to being that rad in the year 2000.
Just check that helmet out, it even has a hole to stick your ear plugs in!!!

Chopped EK from 84'



Shit Post But Interesting (i think)

Have you ever wondered what was inside the tail pipe of a Formula 1 car?
I did, i'm weird like that and found this up a 05' Mercedes engine in a McLaren.

I Just Like This Photo


K.N.2.




Talking about old photos from the Kustom Nationals, this was probably my favourite car there. Its got a whole lot of writing painted all over it now though. You can just see the start of it on the left door.
Not sure if this cars build was started in Australia.........I hope i'm wrong though.

Kustom Nationals


They chop a car at every Kustom Nationals show each year.
These were photos i took from 2006 and i've never seen pictures of it finished. Anyone know??

15minutes

I think i was 15 or 16. The photo appeared in the background for an add in Skateboarder and i was told Thrasher mag but i never saw the Thrasher one.
I'll try and dig the ad out.

Happy Days

I live for days like these.

Motor #2

This is what i was up to today, head on and valve clearances adjusted. Had to machine two rocker bolts. Smooth sailing so far and so it should be i guess, I've built enough engines.....don't worry i'm very gentle.


Motor #1

Been busy assembling the motor for the hardtop. Photos are in reverse order, don't know why?? Anyways the slugs are in the mill. Assembled pistons.

Rear main seal fitted (the fucker will probably leak knowing my luck) and crank bolted in. Head ready for action. The cam is in the box on the floor. Its only mild, what you would call a tow grind in the 60's.




Had the block bored to .040thou oversize. Thats the only size pistons available.

I got the motor for the Valiant back from the machine shop today. Which means nothing except i gotta stop doing body work for awhile so i can assemble it.

She's The Leader Of The Pack Brrm Brrrrm

This is my grandma's sweet motorcycle tattoo. She drops by my house at least once a fortnight on my grandads old shovel head to give my house what she calls a womans touch - you know lace and doilies and shit.

Hover Boards Weren't Invented By the Chinese

How racist was that film Back To The Future. I mean fuck!
Remember when the Doc (no relation) comes up with a plot to send that little cracker Marty McFly back in time just so he can slowly, piece by piece erase the black mans history.
No Shit! Marty goes back in time just to play rock and roll guitar at his parents school dance just so he can claim rock 'n' roll was invented by 'him' a white man!!!. I mean double fuck! How crazy is that.
Everyone knows our little black mate Chuck Berry was the first to combine rock with rolling. and stamp a 'n' in the middle.
Fight racism at the source - Hollywood.

Get Welding

Its just steel tubing folks. Sure its no longer a legal chassis but when has 'being legal' ever stopped you doing most of the things you do in life.

Bobby Dazzler

Daryl Finger's 34 Ford running a Dodge poly V8. Photo was taken circa 62' i'm told.
Daryl had more style in one rolled up sleeve than most people have in there knee high socks.

Real Men Go To Barbers

You'd be a right royal pork chop if you got your moustache trimmed anywhere else.
Thanks for the stubbie cooler Luke, I told you i'd put it on my blog.
The boys at Barebones Barber Shop are some of the raddest geezers getting round.

BE THERE!!!


Yeah speedway rules just like this guy. Do a kid a favour and take em' to the speedway. If he's gonna grow up to wear a white collar and suit one day, he may as well have known someone with grease under there nails.
