Marx Barry of Woodbury, Minnesota, is a talented tattoo artist and a passionate hot rodder who is responsible for the slick sedan you see before you. Though he has 16 years of slinging ink behind him, tattooing was not his original calling. Marx spent a number of years as a graphic artist, but found himself getting burned out, so he walked away from it and spent a couple of years trying to figure out what he wanted to do. The opportunity to begin tattooing literally fell in his lap as he was getting tattooed himself and the shop doing the…

Some cars are destined to define a decade. Here’s rare factory footage of two 1951 General Motors dream cars in action: The GM LeSabre and the Buick XP-300. Both cars were the result of a long-term cooperative activity involving the General Motors Styling Section and the Buick Motor Division Engineering Staff. There was a time when the people who ran car companies were genuine automotive enthusiasts. Harley J. Earl and Charles A. Chayne were two of those enthusiasts whose passion for beautiful cars led to the creation of the Buick XP-300 (originally labeled XP-9) and LeSabre (originally labeled XP-8), true…

Ernie Adams from Maricopa, Arizona, is known as “Mr. Dwarf Car.” Ernie’s Dwarf Cars, as the name suggest, are smaller versions of some of the classic American cars from the 1940’s.  These cars are real, working machines and are street legal, complete with lights, signals, gauges, and everything a “real” car has. Ernie has built 7 of these dwarf cars, by hand; he even made the tools to make these cars. He built all of these cars from scratch. Pretty amazing. The ’49 Mercury is an all time American favorite, made popular by James Dean’s movie, “Rebel Without A Cause.”…

The 1960 Ford Falcon is dog slow today. But it was perfect in 1960. Let Mr. Regular explain… This is a 1960 Ford Falcon with the original 144ci (2.4L) straight six engine. For the younger crowd, this engine configuration sounds pretty good. What follows is a conversation I recently had about the1960 Ford Falcon that I just purchased:–Youth: Oh, a 2.4L straight six. That must have a short stroke, right?Mr. Regular: Yea, small pistons, they move up and down easy!Y: Double overhead cam?Mr. R: No.Y: Single overhead cam?Mr. R: No. The only thing that is overhead is the valves.Y: That sucks. Well, it’s…

Here’s some angsty display of presence. If you’re thinking of knowledge, experience and dominion combined, they are all embodied in one single car. The Ford Model B of 1932, or more popularly known as the 1933 Ford Coupe, is one of the rarest yet most desired roadster car among Hot Rodders. Since the conception of this kind in the market, impassioned Hot Rodders have never gotten enough of it – even to this day. With its V8 engine – marketed as the “Model 18” in the 30’s – and more refined style, the 1933 Ford Coupe has become the most…

The ’69 Camaro through the years has proved itself to be the most popular of all the model years it was built. And when you think about it, the high sales came quite by accident. The ’70 Camaro, a new design, just wasn’t ready on time, so the ’69 continued to be produced til the end of the year. Little did anybody at the time realize what a classic it would become many decades in the future.  What was created was a classic that today draws huge money in national auctions. A number of reasons exist for that popularity, possibly the…

Traveling faster than light is an inevitable longing for the human species, which aspires to expand through the cosmos. But in reality, if we think about it, light moves very slowly compared to the immense scales of the universe: Earthlings would have to wait more than four years for a ship travelling at the speed of light to reach the closest stars, and 25,000 years to get to the nearest galaxy, Canis Major Dwarf. Civilizations that do not have the technology to travel through space by creating electromagnetic fields around their ships cannot visit the solar system. Director of the…

Son Dunga is the largest cave in the world. Located on the border between Laos and Vietnam.In 2013, the cave is open for tourists.

Roscoe Hoffman was an inventor, an experimenter, and a man-about-the-auto-industry in Detroit, and this car incorporates many of his unique ideas. He had friends in very top leadership levels of all the major car companies and did a lot of their contract work. His specialty was chassis and suspension engineering. There is no written history on how the Hoffman X-8 came to be but there are a couple of theories connecting to either Henry Ford or the Fisher Brothers. A contract does exist from the early thirties from a Fisher-owned business contracting Hoffman to build two rear engine prototypes. It…

Something strange was discovered on the surface of Mars – the Curiosity rover stumbled upon an object that resembles the “face of an Egyptian statue.” The Techneblog portal writes about the discovery of the Martian rover. In one of the images that Mars transmitted to Earth, you can see what looks like the “face of an Egyptian statue.” The similarity of a Martian boulder with an artifact from Ancient Egypt was pointed out by many social media users who noticed an anomaly. It goes without saying that the US National Aerospace Agency (NASA) did not comment on the discovery of…

Numerous extraterrestrial alien drones are reportedly orbiting our globe, gathering information and researching our culture. Because of their huge size, which is similar to that of planets in the Solar System, the races or beings that created and manufactured them should have technology that is far more advanced than our own. Many scientists, experts, and even skeptics refuse to classify them as creations of mankind due to their size, believing that humans could never create such technical wonders. What makes these items even more remarkable is that they don’t resemble any normal Euclidean form; instead, they are incredibly complex mathematical…

NASA is testing a submersible robot beneath Antarctica’s sea ice. in search of alien life If the robot is successful, it may one day be deployed to study strange seas on other planets. This robot is one of a kind because it can dig through the ice and detect life at any depth. Given that Antarctica has 90% of the world’s ice, this robot has a lot of work ahead of it. WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF NASA’S VISIT TO ANTARCTICA? I’d like to remind you that in 1938, Hitler launched an expedition to Antarctica in search of ancient riches…

Many conspiracy theorists all around the world strongly believe that aliens are inhabiting secretly on the lunar surface, and they have released several anomalies spotted on the different lunar images released by space agencies like NASA. Adding heat to the claims made by these alien believers, an amateur astronomer from Serbia, filming the moon, recorded a giant UFO flying over its surface, which can be seen from the shadow cast by this UFO on the surface of the moon. The video captures a black, unidentified circular object that passes over parts of the moon. And this is not the first…

We all struggle to park our Yanks sometimes, but it looks like even back in the Fifties some people found it too much of an effort, as this ingenious contraption shows, making parking a 1951 Cadillac as easy as pressing a button! The oId saw, “as useless as a fifth wheel,” will disappear from the American scene if a Californian lumberman Brooks Walker can talk automakers into taking his invention. Walker has a solution for the most perplexing, irksome and fender-denting maneuver facing today’s motorist: how to get a car 12 feet long up against the curb between two parked…

But this particular Charger takes it to the next level as a promotional car for Coca Cola. Basically what you have here…

Timeless Kustoms from Camarillo, California,  set out to build ‘Vicious’, one of the wildest and most extreme Mustangs ever. Jason Pecikonis and his team at Timeless Kustoms spent 10,000 hours transforming a 1965 Ford Mustang coupe into a 1,000 horsepower Ford Mustang fastback. The whole build is 90-percent racecar and 10-percent streetcar. They used Dynacorn sheet metal to convert the coupe to a fastback, and that big back window shows off the red interior nicely. Under the custom widened Mustang body is an Art Morrison chassis that uses C7 Corvette-based suspension.– The engine is a laemodel 5.1-litre Ford ‘Aluminator’ V8,…

An 11-year-old Iranian schoolgirl who just received the highest score possible on the Mensa IQ test has emerged as the new face of intelligence. British student Tara Sharifi, a student at Aylesbury High School, recently sat the exam in Oxford and scored an astonishing 162 marks. The “genius threshold” of 140 is greatly exceeded by Sharifi’s score. Professor Stephen Hawking and Albert Einstein are both said to have had IQs of 160 (Stephen Hawking’s score comes from another source; Einstein never took the IQ test). Nobody was more shocked by Tara’s accomplishment than Tara herself, who thinks it’s amazing. The…
