Now that is a Deep Dish
Garage Works brings in quite a number of wheels in, but this set was just plain ridiculous. Here’s a set of iForged Astra’s not sure on the measurements but I believe the rears are 19×12 -20 offset. I’m pretty sure this will be the biggest dish I’ll ever see in my lifetime!
Center locking Gallardo Spyder
Here’s another car I shot last week for Avant Garde Motorsports. Exotic cars are hard to come by in the city so it’s always a treat to have an opportunity to shoot cars like these. I liked this particular Gallardo because it had two things that I rarely see: manual transmission and center locking IMSA wheels. Yes, center locking – one lug nut bolts the wheels to the car, how unique is that? I can’t wait to share some more pictures with everyone, more of this car after the jump.
Hardcore Cayman S
I see my fair share of interesting and unique vehicles while working at Garage Works, but this is one unique sleeper, be it a Porsche sleeper. From the outside, this Cayman S looks decently modified, but once you start to notice the details you’ll start to get suspicious. More after the jump.
Prime time
I have this weird obsession of trying to get better at things I’m not really good at. Photography is my latest hobby, it’s definitely harder then it looks but I love learning the ins and outs. It feels like I learn something new everyday that allows me take a better picture then before. Unfortunately, equipment can sometimes limit what you can do and there are tons of equipment you can buy when it comes to photography. I was stuck between getting a flash or a lens, and as you can see from the pictures I picked up a nice prime lens. Some car more shots are coming soon I promise!
Swapping shirts with The Hundreds
Never would I have imagined that I would be one day trading shirts with The Hundreds. I reached out to Vito from The Hundreds a year ago to ask what he thought of my line up, not only did he offer advice, he actually likes my shirts. During my Boxer group buy I remembered that Vito was into Subaru cars so I sent him in an email to see if he would be interested in one, to my surprise he was and also offered to swap a t-shirt with me in exchange for it.
Sneak Peek: Mystery car
Had a chance to shoot this somewhat rare car about a month ago while working at Garage Works. I’m sure it will be easy to figure out what car it is, the remaining pictures will be posted up later.
Matte White IS-F
Earlier I posted a teaser for Garage Work’s new matte white IS-F, here are all the pictures from the session. Funny thing is, we were shooting pictures outside of the ware house but once I saw the inside of the empty warehouse, I knew we had to do the photo shoot there. Pictures after the jump.
Sneak peek: Matte White IS-F
Working hard, while the guys at Garage Works finish the matte white IS-F project. Here’s a sneak peak at their latest creation.
Back on the job
While contemplating whether or not to find a part time job while some paper work was being processed for my business, I send a text to David from Garage Works to see if he had any positions open. Luckily he had an opening for some general help and some other work (more on that later). On the first day back the Garage Works crew were headed down to the Edmonton Garrison for a press conference that we were attending, so we brought down two cars and what two great cars they were. Pictures after the jump.
