That's me, I'm him...

DISCLAIMER: Although I am a car guy this is not solely a car blog. I will talk cars, but this is also a blog about how I view the world. Just ask my mom and she will tell you my first word was "car". I do have a slight fascination with them. Luckily I have a supportive family and a very understanding wife...

Door art tech...

So a couple of weeks ago I had Andy Kawahara come out and letter the doors and stripe the hood on the '54. I am very pleased with the outcome. Well today I checked out the myrideisme.com website and found a tech article featuring Lorraine!

Take a look here.

Who said they're only good for 100,000...

Where was this in the cash for clunkers craze? Gotta love old cars and lil ol' ladies...

As promised...

I just can't wait I had to post this. Although not complete (still needs outlined around the letters) I shoveled the '54 outside before heading to work and snapped this pic on the cellphone. Enjoy:

And you thought we were alone...

Check out the sky over Moscow a few days ago. More can be read about it here.

Lorraine gets a little makeup...

So it's been a while since I have done anything to my '54 F100 I named Lorraine. A couple of weeks ago I contacted a local pinstriper and kicked around the idea of lettering her up like an old shop / push truck. Well it didn't take long to agree on a design and as it is she is out in the garage right now with some very classic door art! The letters still need a little outline and drop shadow so you're gonna have to wait for pictures. BUT I will post the stripe work to hold you over for a couple of days...

Once the rest is done I will link to "the stripers" blog since he has in-progress shots already up.

No Anne Frank here...

Left home alone, and I end up doing something like this:

Yes, it is a hole under our stairs. Now that it is almost done the hard part has begun - will it be a Harry Potter inspired bedroom, place to watch TV when the aliens invade, or mother-in-law apartment... The possibilities are endless!

Dear Mom and Dad, not having much fun at camp...

Ya know I never went to summer camp. People always make it sound SO bad, but now I really have to wonder just what went on.
