green truck/ green single cab VW splitty

this old boy lives behind my breakfast place, Kona Kitchen, the old guy who owns this cutie is quite the craftsmen, his house is really fine, old and hidden behind old roses

but the camper he built for the old pick-up is just perfect, flawless even ~ look at that little peek-a-boo roundie above the cab~ just great~ right ?

like a port- hole

the truck is in great shape too, not my style really but love the oxidized green, on black bumpers and trim

ingenious use of steel corrugated roofing~ so good in fact that if i ever own a truck again, i'm building one just like this~ so i too, can sit out on the beach with the sounds of rain clatter

then i saw this little puppy parked and had to come around the block only to find it's lines ruined with huge thing wrapped in brown tarp in the back

love the single cab VW trucks, a completely useless van, but such a funny great looking splitty

ruined silhouette

too bad about the crappy chrome name plate repro

cute little rear end~ green cars rule !

caprice on fire

these poor bastards have had the worst week, ever in car history

i've been watching their progress all week, first they had a flat tire, and then no spare tire, and the car was hanging suspended on a tiny cheap maxed out jack, no stands but a log, for days, then the new town home neighbors called parking enforcement and the car was orange impound tagged, they found a spare, slapped it on and. . .

then~ they some how set the engine on fire and there she sits like a piece O'

exceptionally bad luck~ so sad

some people just have this kind of car karma~

NE!L~

a constant velocity

cv joints on the kitchen table

such a great vw painting

what a surfer drives

i haven't had a pick up in a solid year~ i only have vans now but man, take a look at this sweet ride from the late sixties or early seventies, this is the truck i learned to drive in, man i loved that truck, my dad had side pipes on it and a husky hood ornament, us kids used to ride in the back and scream with long brown hair whipping in the wind

this particular truck has the greatest original paint job ever, i love everything about it, the color the flecks of rust the fade, the wear~ it's all so legitimate

this my brother is a real truck~

1969 Dodge A100 family wagon 318 V8

i have seen this van for sale two or three times in the last three years, i keep calling about it, and no one ever returns my calls, so i figure they don't really want to sell it~ the last time i posted it on this here little site, the asking price was a wee high~ this time~ who knows how much their asking~ you try calling~ missing wheel covers and painty fade

wrinkle free, can't see any rust, full kitchen with head room and sky lights

they did their homework~

you can call~ i'm done with them~ and i might have a few too many family vans, eh ?

there's something so soothing and old fashioned about a split window

can you see the dashboard mounted slapstick shifter behind the rain and heavy breathing~

MOPAR magic really only happened in the sixties

i like the idea of 318 cubic inch engines sitting in your living room, rumbling with fireplace warmth and glow, kick your feet up and stare at stars through the roof glass or watch the snow fall from culvert ditch sideways slides

i'd like to hire a maid to live within fiberglass hi-tops, to clean and cook and iron my boxers, a small women blessed with efficiency, with hair grey, in pearl white and sea foam blue uniform swaying into hair-pin turns as i scream, hold on, and spin wheels while she, frowns and makes me huckleberry pancakes and bacon

deep from in logging roads toward futures unmilaged

NE!L~

1965

i have posted this patina before~ i just know it. but the thing about a car and the human mind is, that if you move it, say parked a few blocks over, it becomes a new car

how you approach a car is like some animal seduction, you spot it across the street, or from down the block, and slowly hold your breath and creep

the sun shining yesterday made the whole world glitter and glow with a special pure light of wonderful and autumn's taste made me realise how much of my life has been wasted on visuals and forgotten events

while out~ way out in Galaxie 500 lives have been shaped, formed spun and hurled down avenues and cobblestone parkways~ where the 80's haven't happened

plastic windows of pride, a medal of honour to show how old you really are, there are no parts cars for you my love only patches

tires as old as i am, framed in patina~ rust and stainless trim

check out the ass, double take the plate~ and instantly forget

a whole life in the gutter~

1967

if i could change the universe, i'd change my birthday so that i could have been 16 in 1967, and i would have stolen this car from some supermarket parking lot

drive'n it out west to the Haight and comb my hair with Popsicle sticks and wear leather cuffs, vest and

the color or my stolen car~ would be~ of course~ Statutory Grape

this beaut isn't any of this, just a run of the mill lucky survivor, living a humble life in Washington state waiting for me to dive in to muscle car madness~

if you want to buy it, here's all the info, i have too many projects, but shit, i just wanna start drink'n and put a six pack on the dashboard and floor it
