shop tour II: tom osbourne

Let's get back to our "tour de garage". Next stop was Tom Osbourne's shop, a very nice place with an impressive stable of rides. He definitely is a Chevy guy, as you can judge from the pictures. The hemi-powered a roadster was just visiting but it did fit in nicely. The 1956 wagon with its subtle patina is Kyle's latest project.

The japanese still know where it's at. Hot rods, kustoms, bobbers, choppers, you name it. See the best of them all at the annual Mooneyes Show Yokohama. (photos © by TAR7480)

shop tour I: aaron holland

During my recent so-cal trip, I did my own kind of sightseeing: checking out local workshops and garages. One of them cool places was Aaron Holland's shop where he's currently building a traditional to the bone 1954 ford custom. Actually, the build already started a couple of years ago, but thanks to Aaron's patience and workmanship, this is gonna turn out bitchin. You gotta dig the overall flavor of the car, with a tasteful chop, a louvered hood, the grille treatment and the slight lowering... old school customizing at its best!

winter wonderland

Don't know much about this photo of a beautiful deuce roadster other than that it fits the current climate we got around here.

UPDATE 2010-12-09: The deuce is Ray Browns roadster and the picture was taken in 1948. The original caption says "Roadrunner member Ray Brown gets caught in the mountains". (AHRF)
