SCF friend and fellow photographer PJ Pilgrim (aka Appleblossom Photography) asked for some help from our readers. Being that this help involves a part-time burlesque act and full time bombshell beauty by the name of Talloolah Love, how could we say no? Miss Love needs our help (and our votes) to win the Viva Las [...]
Think the Popular Mechanics woodworking instructions are tough? Check out Cracked.com’s list of people who took DIY to another level. And then built a higher level, on top of the level, and took their DIY projects there. Makes that birdhouse seem pretty small….
Some people are dense. Very dense. That’s why I’m sure someone, somewhere, has somehow missed all the sanity-destroying music on the radio, and the “Lord of the Flies” consumerism at the mall this past month, and didn’t realize that today was Christmas. As I write this, it’s three minutes after midnight, which officially means that [...]
According to an article in today’s Financial Post, MPI (Manitoba Public Insurance) has recently implemented a policy that doesn’t let any vehicle built before 1995 to be re-registered after an accident. Even more scary, anything built before 1985 is not allowed to be imported into the province. Peter Shawn Taylor, the journalist behind the article, [...]
We love the auto parts store. It’s an awesome place to be a gearhead, with all the shiny car bits on the shelves. It’s an infinite supply of automotive potential, an entire business operation dedicated to having everything for every car, not including the part you actually came in for. But, what about the rest [...]

As many of you are aware, I have been working hard on a follow up to our first book, “Class of 2009,” avaliable at fine bookstores and from questionable hot rod folks. Sadly, all the work has got me a bit burnt out, and so I’m taking this week off from writing and from the [...]
In lieu of Daily Roddin’ today, I’m going to leave you with something a bit more thought-provoking: A talk from Shai Agassi, founder of a company called Better Place. His organization has figured out a realistic way to re-power our daily commutes with electricity. It’s not just pie-in-the-sky thinking, either–they are currently operating their new [...]
Dirk “The Pixeleye” Behlau probably has the coolest job on the planet. When he’s not out photographing beautiful hot rods draped in gorgeous women, he’s compiling books about beautiful hot rods draped in gorgeous women. And when he’s not doing that, his photos become the spokesperson for the entire oldskool subculture in Europe and beyond. [...]
Dan Niel’s review of the 2010 Chevy Camaro might have run in the Los Angeles Times in 2009, but it’s still the best car review ever. We were pretty stoked after reading it, solely for the fact that it’s the first time someone has reviewed the new Camaro in the proper context. More specifically, it’s [...]
