We've been shooting this car in pieces for a car magazine. Yesterday we went in to shoot underneath the hood and got some shots of the trunk too.
This has got to be one of the most beautiful and incredibly detailed cars I've seen and have been able to appreciate in person. And dude doesn't keep it in his shop just for show, he actually drives it and enjoys his work!
I have no clue about the ins and outs of cars, but I know good work when I see it, and can completely appreciate when someone puts their effort and heart in to something they're passionate about.
Not happy about the reflections I caught here. I kept trying to avoid it, but totally didn't realize it on this one until I started working on it.
Happy {Sliders} Sunday, everyone!!
We're off to see more cars and enjoy the day at the Hard Rock Casino.

Nilgiri Mountain Railway locomotive No.37385 preserved in the Delhi Railway Museum. The X class locomotives are a class of metre gauge 0-8-2T rack and pinion compound locomotives working on the Nilgiri Mountain Railway in the Nilgiri Hills of southern India. They are used on the 20 km section between Coonoor and Kallar where the gradient of the track can be as steep as 1 in 12.5. At these steep sections, the railway uses the Abt system. The X class locomotives are compound locomotives with two high-pressure and two low-pressure cylinders. All cylinders are outside the locomotive's frames. The two low-pressure cylinders drive the rack wheels. These cylinders are positioned above the two main high-pressure cylinders, which drive the main wheels.
Part of the abandon newspaper building in Niagara Falls. The newspaper name still exists, but it's just another copy of the 4-5 generic "niagara" news papers that run under diferent mastheads. They have diferent names, but the same content & all come out of the same building.

Ever wonder what Western Michigan’s virgin pine forests really looked like before the logging era denuded the land? Note the tall pine trees reaching left, right and back of the old logging engine and its flatcars loaded with logs. The train was owned by the Thayer Lumber Co. which in 1878 bought the Mason Lumber Co. mill at the end of Fourth St. (Muskegon). Later the Thayer property was bought by the W.J. Brinen Lumber Co.

Zenvo or Zenvo Automotive is a Danish sports car company located near Viby SJ on the Danish island of Zealand. It is managed by Jesper Jensen, the founder and financier, and Troels Vollertsen. The name 'Zenvo' is derived from a combination of their names.
History
Zenvo Automotive was founded in 2004. The prototype was completed in December 2008 and is in the final phase of testing before production begins in 2009. The designation of the car is Zenvo ST1. Only 15 cars are to be built and will be sold to approved customers.
Characteristics
The Zenvo is a high performance sports car. While power is available through its supercharger and turbo, it will still be driveable for everyday use. Its 7-litre V8 engine will achieve 1,104 hp (823 kW) at 6,900 rpm and 1,430 N·m (1,050 lb·ft) of torque at 4,500 rpm. Indeed, according to The Motor Report, recent tests returned a 0-100 km/h time of 3.0 seconds, while 0-200 km/h took only 8.9 seconds.
Despite its power and large alloy wheels, the car is small, at just 15.3 ft (4.7 m) long, 6.7 ft (2.0 m) wide, and 3.9 ft (1.2 m) tall. It weighs just over 3,020 lb (1,370 kg) thanks to carbon fiber body panels.
Zenvo offers keyless entry, satellite navigation, power telescoping steering wheel, and leather electrically adjustable racing seats.
Limited production
According to Jesper Jensen and Troels Vollertsen, the two-man team behind the ST1, some 250 Bugattis are produced each year. Though they are among the world's most expensive cars, exclusive customers will only buy them if they are unique. That explains why they have decided to keep the Zenvo series down to just 15 cars.
Danish design
The Zenvo is entirely a result of Danish design. The carbon fibre body is made in Germany and many components such as gauges, gas tank, ABS brakes, anti-spinn, airbags and such come from US or German cars. The car's aggressive lines were designed by Christian Brandt and Jesper Hermann who own the car design consultancy hermann&brandt. Brandt, who was head of design on the project, has also worked for Alfa Romeo and Kleemann, an after-market tuning company for customising Mercedes-Benz cars located in Farum, Denmark.
Cost
It is estimated that the basic cost of the car, without registration or tax, will be around five million Danish kroner, which is approximately one million US dollars. The cost of putting the car on the road in Denmark would be around 16 million kroner as a result of registration expenses. But Zenvo are aiming at the export market alone.

The Atomic Punk is a Bubble Top Show Rod built by Aaron Grote of Cerro Gordo, Illinois. Even though it looks like an Ed Roth fiberglass construction, the car is all made in steel by Aaron and his beloved english wheel. The fins and the trunk come from a 1959 Plymouth Savoy. The rollpan is built using the hood of an early 60s Chevrolet 2 ton truck. Taillights from a 1953 Ford are used in the rollpan.
Power comes from a 392 Hemi engine hooked to a Turbo 400 transmission. The front end is made up of a chromed, drilled and dropped I beam axle from Pete and Jakes with Wilwood disc brakes hidden inside a couple of O'Brien Truckers drums and backing plates. Almost every nut and bolt on the car is either chromed or polished stainless
