Hella Suck: Shots fired
If you haven’t heard, Derek Kreindler a Toronto Native has voiced his opinion on the “Hella Flush” movement: read it here. Seriously, it is an insightful read on the popular trend. Soon after MotorMavens posted the article, all hell broke loose. Click to read more about my thoughts.
Visiting old friends
Today I dropped by Garage Works to catch up with the guys and practice my amazing photography skills on some of the cars there, luckily there were some good cars in the back. If I didn’t work at Garage Works, I wouldn’t have imagined that these cars would be in Edmonton. Photos after the jump.
New toy
I’m surprised it took me this long to purchase one of these, but lately I have been considering picking up an entry level DSLR for my business. After several failed attempts at meeting people on Kijiji I decided to stop by a local store to pick up a Nikon D3000, hopefully this purchase will help me provide some original content for you guys.
Subaru Impreza 22B Wallpaper
The “cost is no object” roadster
t’s not often that we see cars built like this, especially ones where you hear “cost is no object”. The team at Kirkham Motorsports were told exactly that when Larry Ellison (CEO of Oracle) approached them to build the ultimate roadster. This car built is different though, the frame was machined from billet aluminum while the body panels were hand crafted using traditional methods. The body is based on the AC Cobra and packs a 7.9L engine. Check out site here to view the extensive build.
Sick Subaru GC8 Impreza in Modified
If any of you have taken a look at the current issue of Modified I’m sure you’ve seen this clean GC8 Impreza, if not you’re in for a treat. GC8 Impreza’s aren’t very common yet alone a tastefully modded one. If you’ve read up about the history of the GC8 you will know it is quite a bit different then the current Impreza. More pictures after the jump.
Alexander McQueen found dead today
I was contemplating whether or not to make a post about McQueen’s death today, partly because I doubt most people reading this blog follow avant garde fashion but I felt that it would be a good opportunity to show some of his work in light of this incredible loss to the fashion world. To sum it up Alexander McQueen has been responsible for taking fashion to a whole new level. Read more to see some of his work, or click here to view the article about his death.
JNC’s Vintage Barrels Tee
Our friends over at Japanese Nostalgic Car have released a new shirt called “Vintage Barrels”, featuring several old school rims. Amazingly enough neither I or JNC knew that we would be releasing t-shirts that would be so similar until last month. Buy it here. If you haven’t checked out the JNC magazine, what are you waiting for? Grab a couple issues to get your nostalgic fix. Picture of the shirt after the jump.
Visiting the new Art Gallery of Alberta
On sunday me and my girlfriend decided to take a look at the newly renovated Art Gallery of Alberta (AGA). At first I thought it looked like a giant tape worm attacking a building but after glaring at the building for a couple of hours, I began to appreciate it. If you have ever been to Edmonton (or deadmonton as I like to refer it as), you’ll notice how boring the buildings/landscape look. The AGA is very different and adds an interesting look to the downtown area. More about my visit and pictures of the AGA after the jump.
19 of the most dangerous roads
This is pretty intense! I’m sure many of you would love to rip around on long winding trails along mountain cliffs (I know I would), but these roads are borderline insane! Check out this link for the rest of the article.
