Old car. Old school.

You can bet that when it comes time to shoot and flake the Pontiac, it WILL be with old school US made guns. Here are a few that I have stashed away.

Been up to my armpits in wiring for a few weeks. But progress is being made. Helluva lot easier to do with the interior out.

The Enigma

I sometimes wonder how people work. Take these rear brakes on the Pontiac for example. One side, which features a half installed brake assembly appears to have had new studs installed. Which means someone must have pulled the axle? But at the same time, the front gasket on the input shaft is leaking like a sieve. Why did that not get noticed. See the puddle? And the other side? It looks like a mix of old and new parts. Whhhhat? 😖

In Memory Of Our Fearless Leader

Speaking of inspiration. When we were kids, we didn't have anyone like "Big Daddy" Ed Roth around to warp our young minds. But, we did have The Ghoul. Who hosted our late night, Saturday night horror movies.

Those who know, know.

Our king and fearless leader

Do your own thing

Getting it done quickly isn't the point, having fun getting there is. That and putting something together that's unique. Doing what everyone else is doing gets boring fast.

A look back at when the Rusty Nuts was full of rusty old Mopars.

Rusty's Words of Wisdumb

Don't turn in shitty work. Take the time to do it right. Learn from your mistakes. Take pride in what you've accomplished. If you're looking to be famous and gain the admiration of total strangers? Become a politician.

Happy Anniversary

The end of October marks one year since I brought the 57 Pontiac home after a few decades locked away in a barn.

Robert L. Williams. Artist.

 I won one of these rare prints, large and framed at an online estate auction in Lexington Kentucky about ten years ago. It was stolen before I could pick it up.

Rot in hell motherfucker, whoever you are.

Hibernation time is over

 

Deep thoughts...

The weather is finally beginning to warm up
and the shop is starting to look inviting.
