Kustom Kulture Forever // Germany
Read more: Kustom Kulture Forever // GermanyIn 2018 I visited a lot of Custom Culture shows. This story was originally published on Speedhunters, so here’s an overview. Custom culture events have never been as popular in Europe as they are right now. The hot rodding culture that defined 1950s America has grown immensely in the time since, and now it’s conquering the hearts of car and bike lovers right across the world. European faithful made their way to Zeche Ewald, an abandoned coal mine location in Germany, for arguably the biggest custom culture show on the continent: Kustom Kulture Forever. As someone who’s attended a lot of shows, I can…

Roll & Flat Venice Beach Race
Read more: Roll & Flat Venice Beach RaceFew years back when I was in USA I came across an ad about The Race of Gentleman (TROG). It’s a vintage cars and motorcycles beach race on the Jersey shore. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mykga82OT9U Since then I wanted to visit this kind of event and this year I was literally switching from circuit racing to kustom kulture events, so I thought I’d give it a go and visit one of the European versions on TROG. There were two to choose from: Rømø Motor Festival in Denmark and Roll & Flat Beach Race in Italy. Surprisingly, I’ve never been to Italy and “Italian”…

American Car Show Helsinki 2018
Read more: American Car Show Helsinki 2018In my last year’s post I was deliberating, while I go to Helsinki or to Stockholm for Elmia show, but once again I ended up in Finland. It’s already a tradition for me to head to Helsinki on Easter weekend. Helsinki’s American Car Show (actually show consists of four exhibitions: american cars, tuning, motorbikes, motorsport) offers a great selection of builds every time, although there’s quite a lot of familiar cars at the show as well.

Kustom Kulture Show 2018 // Helsinki
Read more: Kustom Kulture Show 2018 // HelsinkiIt’s finally something fresh on the blog, by fresh I mean – pictures that are taken in 2018, not taken from my dusty archive (where are still plenty of things to show). This weekend I went to Helsinki, for the Kustom Kulture show that was held at Helsinki’s top artsy location – Cable Factory. I still have warm feelings about the Japanese Mooneyes event and was looking forward to dive deeper into a more local custom scene. Me and my friend Misha, who is t-h-e Hot Wheels collector in Estonia went on Sunday, because it was the day of a swap meet…

Yankee Car Show 2017
Read more: Yankee Car Show 2017Few years have passed since I was at a X-treme Car Show. I was visiting them when they were held in Helsinki, but it’s first time for me that I’ve made it to Lahti. Show is actually split into two: Yankee Car Show for US cars and X-treme Show for tuning goers. I’ll split my report between them as well: first up – Yankee heaven.

American Car Show // Helsinki / 2017
Read more: American Car Show // Helsinki / 2017Already a number of years I’m starting my photography season with a fast trip to Helsinki for American Car Show (actually show consists of four exhibitions: american cars, tuning, motorbikes, motorsport) and every year I’m hating the fact that it’s always on same dates with Elmia show in Sweden.. Where will I go next year, oh, who knows. Enjoy!
