HAPPY BIRTHDAY AIDAN

 

  

 

Minny to MB to bring the lipstick gal home

Minneapolis to Montebello, over 2 days, 1245 miles, and 19 hours on the road. Fun, fun, fun !

Footage of Day One, with Day Two below.

Note : this is the uncut version - if you are sensitive to expletives, pretend they don't exist --- works better.




Day 2 --- the fun continues



and lastly ... the out takes from "the Red Velvet underground"(red velvet being the offical color of the car;-) ... sort of like the White Album .... a singing talent hidden for years .... this is what happens when you sing along to your ipod while driving .... now don't laugh while I destroy Lou Reed, Amy Winehouse, U2, Luke Kelly and the Dubliners, and Les McCann w/Eddie Harris ;-)



Who says you need to know all the words to these songs !!!

and the real "La Lollo"

the inspiration for the nickname ...

 

Now that is one groovy couch. Very cool. Would be nice upholstered on sports seats.

Revlon, the lipstick Lollobrigida

She needs a bit of a cleaning, but the "lipstick lollobrigida" is joining the stable. She replace the tii which has found a good home in Brooklyn. Nicknamed "revlon" first by Nikki,  the "lipstick lollobrigida" seemed a more "a propos" term of affection. She is a 1990 C2 with 94k miles. Color is Velvet Red Metallic or Samtrotmetallic. When cleaned up, she looks like this ....

Sideways; Merlot optional

Don't know what this lad's been drinking, and I daresay its alchol of any sort .... he's just slipsliding his way around. But go ahead, pour yourself a glass of the much maligned Merlot (no thanks to Sideways ;-) and enjoy this


These French guys .... when they have at it, they really do "give it a lash". Fair fucks to Gilles Nantet

The Shark is back

If you want to see a pretty near perfect restoration of a nice old car, look no further than this E9, a 1973 BMW 3.0 csi, complete with a crate euro 635 3.5 motor (M90) paired with a dogleg close ratio 5 spd and a 3.07 LSD. These cars were nicknamed sharks, and for good reason. Expensive to restore, usually in rusted out condition, seeing one brought back to its crowning glory, is a joy top behold. Hyperbole, yes just a little. But nice photo's all the same.

 

Usain Bolt joins Kerry Team !!!

As if proof was needed that Usain Bolt had Kerry heritage !!!
Only the greatest play for the greatest team !!!

Porsche family

Well, looking to get myself a free poster, i enrolled in a Porsche PR campaign, and duly ended up getting myself on their website.
See here.
My claim to fame is here.

Basically, they took a cool video, to try and meld the history of porsche with the panamera, a 4 door sedan that is their newest model. If you cannot sell by association, then failure beckons.

The video is pretty cool though








This one is even cooler ...
