Anyone out there have any knowledge of what ever happened to this snowmobile dragster? Shinoda designed it!

Dennis Albaugh collection update

UPDATE! At least one person had a camera going during the open house tour! http://strangetalk.net/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=105641&start=0&st=0&sk=t&sd=a for 6 more photos and a thread that talks about the collection, which has a Chevy convertible of every model OF every year. That is one dedicated collector!

If you were to try to find something for a car collector that had everything... like Jay Leno for example, maybe one of these would be ingenius

This is for Will McElman... I got her number for you Will

Designated drivers, think about this photo, roll down all the windows... I'm just saying

Train and railroad photography.. more is better of a good thing

Suede and Chrome .blogspot.com has found some very cool custom stuff!

The candy pails on the carbs are very funny, and functional too!

The left and right panels look like they are cardboard cutouts! Cool!

Horseshoe brake pedal for luck stopping, and a wrench to get moving

Shopping cart seat backs

A Crosely is small, and this kickstand is a good touch

big damn flamethrowers

Barbwire for a grill, and a coke bottle opener on the firewall

This is just funny, the air filter housing is made from the top of an old outboard motor, and someone can imagine how cool a hoodscoop would be made from http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2008/10/cool-vintage-look-and-similar-to-cool.html

A cool concept borrowed from the "rap" crowd with one gold tooth

How about the whisky jar for the coolant overflow?

These tailights were from the Edsel Roundup http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2006/11/72-gtx-photo-and-58-edsel-roundup.html

Clever advertising! If trailers were painted to represent what they carried

Source unknown, but Tere emailed these to me... thanks!

I got the seat upgrade from cult leader!

You'll need to do alot of reading of Zina's blog to understand the reference, but it's a lot of funny stuff... and you'll likely join the Pirate Monkey Cult (PMC) too.

Photos by Dirk "The Pixeleye" Behlau

Mopar fan? Looks like it! Also seems to love drag racing, rock, and staying busy with the camera making videos (maybe that's the best way to hang out with pin up girls... seems to work for several photographers.. think Coop)

http://www.pixeleye.de/ has the full range of his work, but look into http://pixeleye.smugmug.com/ for the 58 galleries of hot rods, drag race events, pin up girls and cars, Le Mans Classics, and custom choppers.

His book: http://www.speedkings-book.com/ was the focus of a post of mine in Feb 2007 http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2008/02/if-you-like-being-at-drag-strip-click.html
