Lucked into seeing one of these in the wild. I love my ID4, but I really would love to have a fun small electric car available stateside.

A little bit of @eurotrashapparel / @theeurodistrict and @pvw_mag at a very hot but very cool @vwdays_official with @xjamiexoe and @car_men_mk1. Once …

Before, during, and after getting some of the dust off. Also, fixed the wipers in the driveway. They’ve been wonky since I took everything apart …

Welp. Didn’t have this on my bingo card for this year. Everything is dirty. Gonna be a whole lotta washing in my near future…

One of my favorite things to add to cars is a matching bag and tool roll from @scrape_empire. When he posted up the harlequin set he just did, I …

Swapped the summers back on to the mk4. Also, accidentally lowered the harbor freight furniture dolly engine stand. Hashtag tilty wheels. Hashtag …

The snow’s all gone, but the forest isn’t really green again yet. Lovely spring day, regardless.

Good parts day! Some parts arrived to build up the TDI swap on the Helios including the biggest box I’ve received in a hot minute. (AFN …

It’s false spring, so I took advantage to drive the harlequin around a bit and go knock the dust off of it. Turns out, it looks decidedly better …

Got to drive the harlequin again after I broke it a while back. After half-assed futzing with it here and there for far too long, I finally took it to …

Little unboxing of a thing I’ve been looking for for a while; that I was able to snag from @mbmotorwagen on eBay… An @ottomobile.officiel …

Chicago bound! I always find it fun to see the SFO runways from 101. Thanks for the nice weather for a few days. Excited to head back to an …

It’s been a hot minute since I’ve been in the bay area. Got an extra flyby of the south bay since there was already a plane on our runway. …

It was delightfully creepy and warm out this evening.

We were all together, so we celebrated by getting all gussied up and going to the theater! (I wore my finest @heavyslime hat) The show was very …

Cold cold night calls for a warm and cozy indoors. …and dessert. Happy solstice, y’all!

ID4 all done up in winter mode. The flat fives and Yokohama ice guards are slightly lighter than the stock 20s, so it ends up being about neutral on …

Today may have been the last warm day of the year, so I took advantage to tinker on the Rallye for the last time this year. The passenger front Vega …

I was really getting frustrated with these classics. A bit skinny and too high of an offset for my liking, and the centercaps can’t fit with my …

Well, it’s been a few months, so it must be time for another tree! Lolcry Storms this week uprooted two half dead trees that I had been meaning …

Turns out that the center caps that came with the wheels I’m gonna run on green car were not the right ones. Instead they were slightly too …

Did some old fashioned badge tuning on the green car. The black badge cleans up the holes and will fit the look so well once everything is smoked. It …

I was embarrassed at how dirty the Rallye was just sitting in my garage. In a futile attempt to relieve some stress, I took it over to the car wash to …

Getting green car fall ready. (To sit until spring, lol) My hella smoked are gonna go on the Helios, so stockers it is, for now… Though …

So many sevens on these dailies in the last day or so. Also, I love that @matt_litke built cluster in the mk4. One of the best creature comfort …

Finally getting around to posting a few pics of the wagon from a few weeks ago when @longballrally and I bombed down to @theeurodistrict. An …

Was able to duck in and check out @kaylamay_art’s new show. Such an absolute joy to see it all. Am still taking in this piece that absolutely …

Collecting up some parts for rebuilding the Helios. If anyone has any rear Helios power door cards or a Jetta w/sunroof headliner, I’m buying.

Bocce and umbrella drinks on a Monday night. The sun is very bright.

And some @nofx to wrap up the night. Really glad we all got to see them together. Thanks for the music, we’ll keep listening.

@miloochs and Felix watching @descendents put on an amazing hour. A joy to hear both kids singing along to most, including suburban home… …

If @deadmilkmenofficial is in town, I’m going to see them. Add the rest of my family and @handlebarchicago, and it’s bests all around!

Quick garage visit. I gotta get started on this Helios sometime soon.

Cleveland Museum of Art… Some are I liked, some art that reminded me of people and some @heavyslime art I brought with me.
