  Many hours of wet sanding, gluing, clamping, sanding, spraying, sanding, spraying, gluing, sanding, spraying, sanding, polishing, buffing and gluing later..... My car has a center console again and it no longer looks like trash. I didn't take a before shot, but it was in a similar state to this other piece of trim before I decided to take a shot at repairing it. #WeirdCarMastodon #OneWeirdTrick #IHateSanding #CarbonFiber #HighFiberLowFatInedible #Corvette

  There are plenty of 90s and 2000s hotrod trends that have aged poorly, but whoever frenched these door handles into the side of this Camaro deserves an award for getting them so damn flush! I couldn't find the owner to ask about it, but I guess the handle pops out to open the door 🤷🏽‍♂️ or maybe it acts as a button for an electric popper solenoid. #WeirdCarMastodon #Camaro #AmericanMuscle #NotMyStyleButNiceJob

  @mimblewimble yeah, that's the idea. I sort fed the CA glue into the cracks and let it wick into the delaminated sections while clamping some delams that ran all the way to the edge. Allow it to cure then used files and aggressive abrasive to debulk any high spots and open up any bubbles then repeat the glueing again until everything had a contiguous surface without any cracks that were opening up when gently flexing the part. Then a lot of "prep" sanding to a generall...

  Freshly imported from Tajikistan! The owner said it got a fresh paint job, new set of tires and a tune up for less than $600 all in :) #Lada #WeirdCarMastodon #Tajikistan #NotAFiat #NoReallyThisIsntAFiatPanda #MakeCarMeetsWeirdAgain

  Car makers NEED to bring back cool options. The patterned inserts in this M Coupe are next level awesome! #WeirdCarMastodon #YouHaveChosenWisely #VaporWave #MakeCarMeetsWeirdAgain

  For when the groove is hitting just right, this guy had a tiny cymbal for enhancing his cruise. #WeirdCarMastodon #MakeCarMeetsWeirdAgain

  In a dance known to car guys everywhere. When you spot a Roadrunner and make eye contact with the owner you must first demonstrate that you know the color is called "Sublime" and not "Speed Green". Once this foreplay has concluded, you may then ask "does it work?" And they will, in a manner not unlike the Manchurian candidate, become activated and will be unable to continue with normal human interactions until they have made their car go &amp...

  Another chill Saturday at the PreStage meetup in Marin. As usual there were many interesting cars. The wheels on this Accord really looked awesome. I'm happy that there are enthusiasts into the "rad" era cars, for too long there was basically no one interested in them and so many were just unceremoniously junked and crushed. #WeirdCarMastodon #Honda #OldSchoolJDM

  Not much to say about this. Perfect totally restored Lancia Integrale Evo, fresh out of the shop and onto the road. Glad someone has the money/will to keep it so nice AND still has the stomach to keep it on the streets instead of hiding it in a private collection. #WeirdCarMastodon #Lancia #HotHatch

  The owner was on a phone call, so I didn't get a chance to ask about this one. I'm pretty sure it's a '88. I was excited to see an AW11 mister two and then noticed the "SUPERCHARGED" graphic above the rocker. I hustled over excited to see the engine cover was propped open. Imagine my surprise to see a ?!Camry V6 stuffed into the tiny engine bay. I've owned 2 AW11s and they are so much fun, but absolutely a nightmare to work on unless yo...

  I guess I buried the lede a bit, the marque of the month at PreStage was "swedish", which means a lot of cool Volvos and one crazy Saab over in the corner :) I enjoyed talking to a bunch of the owners, but neglected to get enough pictures :( The 850R wagon has been one of my bucket list cars for-fucking-ever and this super clean yellow one is exactly the spec I've always dreamt of. The owner was so happy to talk with me about or shared fond memories of the magazine ad...
