people express a style in three main ways - with the things they wear on their bodies, the way they carry themselves and with the things they build.* some people cultivate a visual identity, and some people’s style is unintentional, not even meant to be stylish, but the entire visual package just works.

to me, there are few things more aesthetically pleasing than a person, dressed appropriately, with an interesting expression, with a vehicle. a car, a motorcycle, a truck, an airplane, boat, bicycle - human and machine, infused with each others’ character.

none of the following photographs are mine.

Does this style say I’m a crazy person? I don’t usually think about it much at the time other than “i’m having fun”. But any time I find pictures of myself, I think in retrospect that I might seem certifiably insane.

I have certainly done this but it’s always difficult to get action shots lol. I only have “normal” driving action shots.

Unfortunately I do plan to retire my car from snow usage (or any wet weather for that matter) and embark on some rust repair. Hopefully just moving to SoCal will help accomplish that goal without giving up much driving!

Does it work if the vehicle is dissembled?

Good plan! Better weather and lots of fun roads to take it out on.
