The New Motorcycle Gangs

Before we get to our post today, I'd like to apologize (again), for not being around much.

After I recovered from that brutal surgery (which now seems like a bad dream so far away), I started getting into some new projects so that ya'll wouldn't visit this page & be subjected to seeing my weird, freaky shit, but still haven't been feeling so up to par recovering psychologically. Obviously, posting to this blog requires me to keep up with my regular pizazz, which is something I've been drained of as of lately and it's been a slow road but things are getting back to normal, as will my posting here once more, so don't lose hope in me.

I also tend to a ridiculously large vegetable garden and it's the time of year to spend a lot of time with that as well. Nevertheless, I am making blogging more frequently and keeping up with all of you my first priority from here on out.

As for the post here today, I'm not sure it falls so much under the "humorous" category, but it is something I would like to bring to attention.

You notice more & more that you're seeing classic cars all over the place & many of them are extremely souped up?

The inspiration for this post hit me after one drove by me last week, gorgeous classic car, new shiny red paint job, complete with the Porky's logo n' all. It was so cool yet so amusing at the same time.

Well, after a trip at the end of last summer up to Essex County to visit The Clambox (yes, that's a seafood restaurant), I noticed something very interesting: Older men too afraid to get on motorcycles are now forming classic car gangs. I realized this at the moment about 15-20 of them pulled into the parking lot circling around & kicking up dust all over the place.

Never mind the lack of actual dust here. It was the best I could do.

And being a car enthusiast, I found this to be a pretty intriguing topic to bring to people's attention.
I've also learned something in all this, and it's that I'm way more into these older customized American cars from the 30's, 40's & 50's rather than ones from the 60's & 70's.

So, today we're going to take a look at some bad ass lil beauties.

Take note that I refuse to even take a second glance at what American cars are today, but what they were decades ago is a whole different story! Better than anything made & existing today.


Let's start with what may be my personal favorite.

 The Mercury Lead Sled 1940's-1950's

Now I'm not sure about 1951 standards, but having a car like this today is bound to get you laid.

If you think that's a beauty, let's take a look at some more Mercury Lead Sleds

Excuse me, I have to go to the bathroom. I'll be right back. And I'm taking this with me.

By the light of the silvery.....Holy crap, I may have just shit my pants.

The 1939 Ford Coupe

It's way cool, but I don't find it so hot in that it screams "Pass the Grey Poupon through the window" in a way.

The 1937 Ford 2-Dr Sedan

Gangsta muthafucka!

The 1934 Ford Coupe

That's balls!

The 1948 Chevy Aerosedan

The paint job is a lil "Rainbow Randolph" but the car is awesome! It's got that body & shape I love. Perhaps if it had some chasing lights, it would be more of a clown car.

The 1940 Ford Panel Truck

Clearly, besides being a milk man classic, it's a surf classic & how can I not love that?!

I am literally in my GLORY right now as I write this post.

The 1952 Chevy Convertible

Take that, grease lightning! You just couldn't be that f-ing cool.

The 1942 Ford F1

Not much words here. Just form & classic beauty.

1934 Buick Sedan

I'll be damned. They once actually made an awesome fn car.

I'm getting really scared I'll never stop here.

How about  The 1941 Cadillac 62 

Clean up aisle 62!

I'm such a dude sometimes.

I bet it ROARS. I bet they all roar. "We all float down here!"

Seriously, I hope you've all enjoyed this post as much as my pants have.

Pardon my lewd conduct. I freaking LOVE these things!

I will now be doing some blog rounds & I promise you'll be seeing more of me this week.
Let me know if I forgot any seriously bad ass cars from this era that I can update the post with.
