I started doing the cleanup of destroyed engines that I got in possession over the years. I decided to make an informational post about the differences between the engines, since I had some questions when I started, and a post like this would be much appreciated back then. I need to mention that I have tried to put the correct... Continue Reading

Small event worth attending. Every year, Trash ‘n’ Burn festival has a pin-up photo contest, and at the end of every year, around the holidays, they publish a calendar from that shooting. Since the calendar format fits perfectly in my workshop, it’s an imperative to have it updated. This year’s promotion was... Continue Reading

After much hesitation about assembling the engine and a few tries at different workshops (which only resulted in sloppy work), I decided I had enough and I’m doing it myself, with some help of my friends. How hard can it be, a few bolts, some sealant, oil and a manual. But,i if I’m going to this, it must be with style... Continue Reading

First there was a movie, and then there were comic books… no, wait, it’s the other way round! Let me tell you a story how I discovered and become a fan of this comic book antihero. One night, while returning alone from a dance party in the middle of the night, I passed by some record store window. They were projecting a... Continue Reading

Like almost everything else, car sun visors were in pretty bad condition, and since I have decided to go with a black headliner, these beige visors were no good. First idea was to use some mint second hand black visors from some random car. That idea didn’t work because black sun visors you can only find in exclusive cars,... Continue Reading

eAfter trying to source and modify VW Audi and Opel stalks, I asked myself a question: “What’s wrong with the original stalks?” Except they are broken and ugly, everything else is fine, so I started restoring them with my personal touch. I found all the spare steering columns that I had and disassemble the parts.... Continue Reading

Remember when in the previous post I mentioned that “those small imperfections will give warmth and character”? Sometimes there are things that start to bug me more and more and more and at one point I say – f**k it, I’m doing it myself. This is the case. Leather upholstery is extremely time consuming...

Small hours after midnight. The local swing dance party was over. I still had the rhythm in my head and some electronic switches in my pocket that I got earlier for some project, while walking in the direction of my car. It was a misty and dark night, since there was a power failure a couple of days ago, that still hadn’t... Continue Reading

We watched another classic – Shadowzone. Starring actors: Kai Winn from Star Trek DS9, Dr. Chew from Blade Runner (the guy that gets his heating pipes ripped out from his environmental suit, inside some cyborg ice lab), and some actress from various bikini themed films. She is naked throughout the entire movie, and kinda... Continue Reading

First of all I must say that this is a high budget British – American film worth about 25 million dollars, full of famous actors and crew members, like Duane Barry from X-files (Steve Railsback) or Captain Picard from Star Trek. While the director was Tobe Hooper, the same guy who directed Steven Spielberg’s... Continue Reading
