This old thing rolled off the factory floor 60 years ago today so I spent the weekend trying to pretty it up a bit just to commute to work and take some nice photos. I need some enthusiasm back soon.

Finally got my shit together to hang out in the garage for some beers and make this happen:
An above/below collage of two photos of the rear end of a ratty red 1967 VW Beetle. The photo on top has the rear decklid closed, showing how the car looks most of the time while driving or parked. The bottom picture has the rear decklid open, highlighting the well-detailed engine with dual Weber IDA carburetors, a Gene Berg breather, Gene Berg carburetor linkage, a Gene Berg weighted crankshaft pulley, and a polished brass Empi oil pressure switch block.

20 mile bike commute, one coffee no breakfast

Listen to @bloodwork.show
A famous black-and-white photo of the GAU-8/A "Avenger" gun, temporarily detached from its usual A-10 Warthog mount and instead given to a 1960s VW Beetle to use as lane-hogging deterrence.

Happy scans day to those who celebrate, medium format black and white is the best way to shoot cars imo
A black and white photo of a ragged 1967 VW Beetle from the left-rear quarter, taken just above ground level. The front wheels are turned to face the camera and give the car some attitude. The cloudy sky is blown out by the exposure, but the rest of the photo is crisp and full of contrast. The background is made up of worn down, disused, and overgrown farm buildings.A black and white photo of the same Beetle, taken from the right front quarter instead, and still from about ground level. The background is primarily overgrown and untrimmed trees, the foreground is just dirt with a small shrub between the photographer and the car. The focus on the car is slightly softer, with the focal plane being about a foot in front of the car.

This tree likely sprouted sometime before europeans ever sailed to this continent, and its offspring lower down the ridgeline will outlast regimes and empires that now feel unassailable. Bristlecones are a different level of ancient.

Finally got a chance to dress the shitboxes up with @trangirlismo.bsky.social stickers, and realizing I fucked up by not getting one for my toolbox
A moderately bumper-stickered red 1995 Subaru Legacy Wagon, the stickers saying "Start Seeing Bicycles," a Tran Girlismo sticker parodying the Gran Turismo logo, and "Keep Honking, I'm behind the wheel trying to suck my own dick and I'm definitely GONNA CRASH!"A wide-angle shot of the driver's rear quarter glass of a 1967 VW Beetle looking forward out of a garage. The focal point of the shot is a large, white bumper sticker that parodies the Gran Turismo logo, with the words "Tran Girlismo, The Real Podcast Simulator"

@trangirlismo.bsky.social Yes masculinity is a prison but I think the movie versions of Shelby and Miles understood that the prison is much more bearable when equipped with loud enough carburetors to drown out your insecurities

@wtyppod.com @victoriascott.bsky.social speaking of good liveries, BNSF has assigned a Warbonnet C44-9W to the local that runs next to my work and my coworkers are gonna learn what Foamer means soon
A pair of BNSF locomotives without any train cars runs southbound along the street level Mason street line through Fort Collins, CO. The lead engine is painted in the classic "Warbonnet" Santa Fe paint scheme and the trailing engine is in normal BNSF orange. Both engines are GE C44-9W models.

Post a random cool car photo you took on another year, with no explanation.
A close-up of the front-left corner of a 1966 Chevrolet Corvette hardtop, the hood is lifted into the direction of the sun and is shading the cabin. Anything below the beltline along the side of the car is shaded, but the white paint provides plenty of detail and the red stripe on the hood scoop strongly contrasts the rest of the car. Overall the car is more menacing and performance-oriented than a typical vintage Corvette and the photo is composed to accentuate that menace.

Looking forward to getting some shitbox beauty shots ala @victoriascott.bsky.social once I get these wheels shined up a bit.
A red 1995 Subaru Legacy wagon as seen from the right side, parked in a gutter in a mild rainstorm. The plastic trim on the car is faded as are the 5-spoke alloy wheels, but the bodywork appears straight despite the rust at the bottom of the passenger side rear door.

Case 1: Phoenix I 200 whips ass
A grainy and orange tinted photograph of a faded red 1967 VW Beetle sitting in a parking lot underneath a blooming cherry tree. The car is at about a 45 degree angle to the photographer, who is facing the drivers' side. The little sky that makes it through the trees is blown out entirely into a slightly orange-white, which is reflected into the drivers' side rear quarter window of the car.A very poorly-exposed image of the same 1967 VW beetle underneath some different cherry trees, also in bloom. The car is at about a 115 degree angle facing partially away from the camera, towards a small retaining wall that holds the berm the trees are sprouting from. Past the trees are three park benches in a row.

Post a car picture you took. Minolta a7, Kodak Ultramax 400
A vintage VW Beetle sits on a small dirt mound, the mottled red paint showing grey and white primer underneath. The background is of trees beginning to turn yellow in early autumn, and the sky behind is primarily cloudy with only a horizontal layer of sunlight breaking through barely above the horizon of the photo.

Have some film
A heavily accessorized bicycle leaning up against a worn board fence, next to an abandoned house, a red shingle roof with patina white paint and open second floor windows. The sunlight highlights one side of the red brick chimney, while the face toward the camera is shaded, highlighting the graffiti figure. A large and unkempt dead bush blocks the view of the entryway to the house.
