unpopular in the US



'Cos they called 'em 'anglias' of course. Apparently they were a mainstay of the US gasser world back in the day (and today, for that matter), so I thought I'd have a snoop round google images and see what came up. The 'rodded pop' is about as English as warm bad beer, so here's a look at what our colonial cousins have done with this great bodystyle. Pretty smart, I'm sure you'd agree.

gotta love RUMBLERS N.Y.C.



And rat rods rule...Rumblers car club from New York are well represented in the press both sides of the pond, and the world over I'd reckon, and these scorchin' rides show you why. I'm lovin' that grey suede/primer on the tudor, rocks for sure. And good to see a move away from red steels, black rims look a whole lot better with skinny whites. (Too many colours in that last sentence?) Pickups ain't really my thing, but I'd have that one with the 34 grill shell in a heartbeat, killer stance.

thing you really wouldn't wanna ride


oh man, this is SO wrong. The slingshot digger is pretty kool, but he's got the whole snotrag-waving dragstrip girl thing WAY off the mark. Be-have!!!

THINGS I'D LIKE TO RIDE vol 5


Everytime I see this it blows me away.I love the way the suspension drops away but up ! That must have been mental. All sat round the table when someone goes "how about doing a complete barrel roll in a car over a river ? ",everyone else " Fuck yea".

Cracking stunt......and that not rhyming slang.

Workshop space

Yeah, it's pretty boring I know, but at last I got me garage cleared out. It's only been 3 years now! Well, it's not strictly mine, as my neighbour kindly lets me use it. Anyway, you should have seen it before, I could hardly fit the bike in for garden furniture, rusted DIY detritus, cobweb colony, and about 60 pots of shit paint. 2 trips to the tip later, and I got meself a sorted workspace, light and working wall socket- result. Look carefully in the back right of the pic, and you'll see a built-in workbench, needs a little remedial work, but a good place for the wicked old proper vice I got off the father-in-law. Now I just need a little time...

Strange goings on at the Circle K

Apologies for the dreadful quality of the shot, but it was taken on my crumby phone, and I'd polished off at least 2 becks by this stage, so things were pretty out of control. WTF...here's a little sneak peak for the BASTARDOS faithful, Filler's new project, or at least the genesis thereof.
It is of course a motor city flathead, sorry the man will have to fill you in on the detail, currently in mid-stripdown/rebuild at home, this is just a mockup with a fenton intake manifold and tidy trio of holley 94 carbs. If I had this setup, I'd reckon I'd nailed it- but Filler wants more. Watch this space!
