Flake & Flames – Teaser II (California) // Kustom Kulture Documentary from Flake & Flames Film on Vimeo. Our good friend and inspiration, Dirk Behlau (aka, The Pixeleye), is hard at work on his first documentary, “Flake & Flames.” From what we’ve seen so far, Dirk and his co-director Jesper Bram have put together [...]
For the first time in three years, I finally made it to the Kanata cruise night at Hazeldean Mall. For me, it was a huge improvement over the first one since (a) it wasn’t raining, and (b) I didn’t get rear ended on the way home. Tonight’s show was both eclectic and awesome, with rides [...]

We’re big fans of German Uber-Photographer Dirk Behlau, aka “The Pixeleye.” His photography and car culture books were big inspirations behind our first book “Class of 2009,” and gave us a reason to try harder on “Class of 2010.” In other words, he’s freakin’ awesome. Behlau, along with partner Jesper Braum, are making the jump [...]

Earlier yesterday Jalopnik.com, one of the better auto websites, posted a link to leaked plans for the Alfa Romeo’s re-launch into the US. The first step was to introduce the 4C, their flagship supercar which at this point was a concept car that was just hangin’ out at some new-car exhibition. So if the 4C [...]
Earlier tonight was the 6th annual Ferrari Festival, sponsored by the Ferrari Club of America, Ottawa Chapter. It was a decent display of fine Italian iron, with examples ranging from the ’80s to today. There was a 512 (better known as a “Testarossa”), a 348 (better known as “Magnum PI’s ride”), and even a Maserati [...]
We’re a big fan of the Manitoba Pontiac Association, and they’ve been big supporters of this site and our book series. And so, when one of their members needs a hand selling their prized Trans Am, we’re more than happy to lend a hand: Lady driven 1985 Pontiac Trans Am. 126000 km , only 200 [...]
Father’s day is a great day for accumulating neckties, getting paper mache ashtrays that your kids made at school (even if you don’t smoke) and going to car shows. And while our taste in neckties and ashtrays is fairly questionable, we’ve got your back when it comes to picking out this weekend’s car show: Ontario: [...]
