I like creating alternative models. This time I did not build any particular brand. Rather, it is a collective image of a modern muscle car. Like the previous model, this one is also for the TLCB Lock-Down Competition.

Photographed at the 2013 Oldsmobile Club of America National Meet at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Springfield, Illinois on July 23-27, 2013. Co-hosts of the event were the Archway Oldsmobile Club and Illinois Valley Oldsmobile Club.
Please visit my collection of Motor Vehicles on Flickr where you will find over 10,000 car and truck photos organized in albums by model year, manufacturer, vehicle type, and more. This project, which began in 2008, continues to expand with new material added daily.
The incredible muscularity of the dragon tree photographed to just below its foliage line. Found at the site of the old Victoria Park racecourse.
Today's story and sketch "by me" you see Knobby Gofish driving
one of his favorite muscle cars, it is of course his 1969 ZL-1,
with an aluminum engine churning out over 500 horsepower, the ZL-1 was the most powerful version of the already strong L-88 Corvette. In fact, ZL-1s were the most powerful production Corvettes available until just recently. Only two were known to have been built that year, and this one Knobby's uncle Buck drove off the assembly line is actually the third, one that was believed to have been stolen from the factory, (Which it was by Uncle Buck who was posing as a reporter for an Alien Motor sports Magazine, he just drove it away in broad daylight and into a Galaxy Transporter back to Lippo his home Moon), but that is a story for another time.
Knobby was given the ZL-1 by Uncle Buck when he got married to
Mable Ziggada. After their wedding they moved to her home
Planet Mushy, where there are no roads or even trails, but it does have a nice but damp climate. Above you will see Uncle Buck himself who just arrived at Wonder world to visit Knobby and show off his new XR-12 Glider, a wedding gift from Mable who actually owns the XR Glider Company, that she was left by her late husband Howard Ziggada, some in the family think Buck married Mable for her money or because she owns one of the biggest Glider companies in the Universe, or possibly because she is still a beautiful cougar even if she is three times as
old as Buck, but that to is a story for another time till then taa ta the Rod Blog.
Here we see the sarcomere units in the muscle tissue (red) of a mouse that was injected with a regenerative nanofiber matrix (blue). The nanofibers were injected with a micro-manipulating device that allows us to align the nanofibers parallel to the muscle tissue. The alignment of nanofibers allows proliferating cells to match the organization of the neighboring muscle thus accelerating the healing process after injury.
