This past Sunday was a small but great show in New York called Eurothon. It was my first time so I didn’t know what to expect. It was set at a park and it was an absolutely beautiful day for a show. It was a chill environment and there were some dope cars in attendance. I snapped a couple pictures so I figured I’d share with you. fyi- check out the official Eurothon coverage on SNTRL.com. Thanks!

Start off with Evan’s beautiful S4 static on Bentley wheels.

This MK3 was interesting to say the least. That’s a 10inch wide wheel in the back with a 0 offset. Doesn’t exactly fit but to each their own!

Some really nice old school BMW’s came out. Always a pleasure seeing the classics.

Clean small bumper MK2.

Gotta love the air-cooled goodness.

Ugh! One day I will own a RS4. So dope!

E46 with all the CSL goodies.

Porsche 964. I really wish I saw more of these modded in the north east.

Many of you should know of this car. Loving the new color interior.

This has got to be one of the best vendor display’s I have ever seen. Props to Euromedian for putting in the work to make something that is one of a kind.

Nice MK4. This car has come a long way from years back. Pretty awesome bay too.

Pretty embarrassed to show this, but here you can see just how low he is, damn I need some suspension! lol

I am currently in love with this MK1, such a motivator to finish building mine.

More old school BMW loveliness. 2002 with subtle mods.

Been seeing this car around a lot lately. Done very well with air and white RS’.

This Mk5 was pretty impressive with the CCW Smoothies and crazy air tank setup in the back seat.

Was really digging this new GLI on OZ’s.

Again this MK1 is pretty much perfect. Euro bumpers, air, VR swap, BBS RS’, cage, clean interior, flaired fenders, on and on. Damn!

I leave you guys with this beautiful Mercedes CL dropped on OZ’s. This car really doesn’t need much to stand out. Props to the owner.

I really loved the laid back atmosphere brought by the guys at Eurothon, so until next year…

 

A Beautiful Classic

When I look at these classic Triumph’s, beautiful is ALWAYS the first word that comes out of my mouth. There is just something about the simplicity of the lines. Or maybe is the leather accents. But it’s unmistakable whenever you see one done this well. It’s a work of art. I’m dying to own one. Anyone have more info on this particular Triumph? I don’t see a throttle cable and the leather wraps on the handle bars are a thing of beauty!

Rotiform SL

I have a love/hate relationship with Rotiform, both positive of course. I love the company because they are manufacturing beautiful wheels, always changing things up, and are constantly pushing boundaries. As far as success is concerned, they really couldn’t do any better. I also hate Rotiform because they build cars I’ve always dreamed of building. Their latest example of this, is their newest addition, a Mercedes SL. For years I’ve wanted to buy one, add a drop and throw on a sick set of wheels, and lookie here! I have to say, I really love it, and would still love to do it myself. There is really something about early 90’s styling. Such a beautiful sight. Props!

We Never Get The Good Stuff

I’m sure you guys are tired of me proving that other countries like Japan and German get better cars then us. But it is for a good reason, I guess it’s the same with american cars not being in other countries. When it comes to this subject it really makes the car that much more special when we see one, because of it’s rarity, exclusivity. An Audi 100 is a car we really never hear about, let alone see, but it is very much a classic. When I saw that they had made a coupe my jaw almost dropped to the floor. I mean, just look at the car, the lines are absolutely perfect in every way. It’s an Audi definition of beauty. Why aren’t there more modded like this in Europe? I want one NOW!

The Newest Classified Moto Creation

Not many people know about my obsession with motorcycle’s. And really, the north east doesn’t have any big meets or gatherings that pertain to it. It’s really a shame because I am slowly seeing them become more and more popular. I was in soho/the village yesterday and was really shocking in the number of cafe style bike’s I saw. It really is part of a lifestyle for many, and for others part of a really badass dapper look. For me they are an extension of my passion, they are pieces of art, they make a statement, and they give you the all important feeling of freedom. I have been a HUGE classified Moto fan ever since they started, their style, and creativity is unmatched. This latest monster is based off a Yamaha XV1100 and has a crap load of custom mods. Check to see what a stock XV looks like and you’ll see what I mean. So dope. I love the addition of modern parts. You can sit and stare at it for hours. That makes it a work of art.

Ok last video for a while, but I had to post this just for the pure quality. Both of the cafe racer and the video itself. You just can’t deny the work that wen’t into making such a beautiful video and bike. Oh, and you thought your Valentino Rossi replica helmet was expensive, try checking the price of the Ruby she has on. Probably one of the most beautiful helmets made. Scenery is just killer!

Enjoy

Poetry in Motion – 300SL Gullwing

I really love the video’s that are done by Depth of Speed. I really goes beyond just showing a video on a nice car and bring out the story and life of the owner. It just happens that the car featured is one of  the most beautiful cars ever made. I mean even down to the color combination. I absolutely love the full red leather trimmed interior with the bits of wood and chrome. It truly is a thing of beautiful. To make things better the car is actually driven! I’m sure it had it’s flaws but the owner loves driving it and enjoys the car. I get the people truly see cars like art and just enjoy looking at them, but you have to respect a man who doesn’t care about that and drives it like it should.

This is our first demo bike, and just to refresh your memory, the frame you see on this bike is the frame we will be selling. Custom camo in any color you can imagine, or any other designs you wish along with solid colors. If you are interested or have any questions please feel free to contact me at dacevedo01@yahoo.com. Like I said we will have more demo frames done soon as well as a website. Thanks!!

Holding Myself Back

So I recently acquired a Audi B6 S4 and promised myself I would keep it stock and actually enjoy the car for a year before tearing it down and modding. I came across these photos from Worthersee and damn does it look good!! Very simple, yet very affective. Air ride a set of Vossen’s and this car is good to go. Ah man, now to hold myself back from my addiction!
