Q:How do you spell quality? A:Broadfield

Jeff has submitted a few builds to the site lately, and while going back and forth over emails he pointed me in the direction of a blog run by his buddy, Toby. Jeff had only the highest opinion of the custom work that Toby churns out, and after clicking the link and having a snoop around, I didn’t have to look hard to see why. Toby does the sort of work that we all wish we were capable of doing, if only we possessed greater volumes of two key ingredients: skill, and patience.

From imports to exotics, cars to boats, interior or engine bay, everything is done with the utmost quality and attention to detail. Click more to find the link.

Opel Kadett C

So I got a very excited email from James at Car Throttle telling me about an amazing build he’d just read up on. He was so excited in fact, that he forgot to include the link in his email!

This is the build he was telling me about. A ’78 Kadett with a turbo setup, E30 BMW IRS rear end, custom fibreglass front clip, and a whole bunch of DIY mods done at home on a student budget with a $100 welder. A true home-build, complete with a work related injury.

You’ll find the link at the bottom of the post…unless I forget, haha. Thanks again James.

Korrado

VW’s have featured prominently on this site for one reason; there are just so many well modded ones constantly being churned out all over the world. But even so, a lot of them seem to follow the same (successful) formula. OEM/rare/3pc wheels, slick paint, severe drop whether it be bagged or static, clean interior, shaved bay, etc etc.

So when was the last time you saw a VW built with a particular aspect that was truly different, something that set it apart from the rest? Keith submitted his Corrado that fits the bill…

Routine carnage

I wondered why I was having trouble getting the sump plug off…

In other news, my apologies for the lack of posts this past week or so but I’m off to Japan on Saturday for 2.5 weeks! Been a bit busy organising things but I’m going to get some posts ready for you guys to schedule for while I’m away, and hopefully I’ll be able to fit in a post or two from abroad.

Also I should be ready to run ads on the sidebar by the time I’m back, so if you think any businesses out there would benefit from some really good exposure, be sure to let them know.
