Video | Renault Alpine 1960 vs Renault Alpine 2012

Today I came a cross this awesome movie clip in which two Renault Alpine cars are battling in the Alps! The 1960 Alpine A110 Berlinette versus the 2012 Renault Alpine A110.

Sit back and enjoy!

Update | Sneak preview..

Starting 2013 with a proper sneak preview of the café racer I am building!
The clay model is finished for 3D scanning, some minor adjustments will be made once modeling in 3D CAD; radii on the edges for example.

As you might have noticed, the Spark exhausts are not properly aligned at the moment. The one positioned on the right side it positioned in its final position and the one on the left will be lowered as well to match the other one.
Currently the exhausts are mounted to the frame by bended sheet metal plates; these I used to verify the position of the silencers before milling the final brackets. In the coming weeks the milled headlight and exhaust brackets will arrive!

Photography | Once we run out of fuel..

Last October we were driving through southern Spain, and somewhere between Tarifa and Jerez de la Frontera we came across this ruined gas station.

This might be a common view once we are running out of fuel.. Although I loved the atmosphere around this abandoned gas station, I hope we hope we can refuel our motorcycles and car for many more decades!!

Video | Urban Outlaw

The second Porsche based movie clip in a week.. but this one is so damn briliant! Magnus Walker is a UK born chap, living in LA and building the best looking classic Porsche 911's I have ever seen.

This is a feel-good movie you have never seen before.. grab a cup of coffee and take 32 minute break!

Update | Fuel tank refinement

Quick update of the refinement on the tank area and around the vertical cylinder. Last weekend I have been tweaking all this.. hope to finish the clay modeling before the end of the year.
So we can 3D scan the body early January..

Update | Rizoma parts

Last Thursday I mounted some more beautiful Rizoma parts on to the motorcycle; the open clutch cover, gold pressure plate, milled timing belt covers and the oil plug.
I absolutely love the look of these parts together! Thanks to Rizoma!!
