In the meantime, I went to the Santa Pod MOPAR meet with my buddies. A sick weekend of V8′s and pure muscle. Sooooo good. Came back with dreams in my head of new projects. There was plenty of graphic inspiration to be found on bonnet badges and the like. Here’s some photos for you…(Click on em to see them un cropped)

Its for a BMX shop tour of New England.

illustration: Adi Gilbert

Team members on the trip… Mike Meister, Tony Cardona, Mark Mulville, Chad Degroot, Jeff Klugiewicz, Connall Keenan, and Matt Coplon.
The van I drew is Ford Econoline for those of you interested. I just noticed I seem to be attracted to always draw cars from the same angle. I’ll have to try a different aspect next time. There’s a distinctly Black Flag / Pettibon influence in this piece I’m happy to admit.

Dreamlike surf cult, old cars etc…

He also has this Tumblr, the Sea-Farer which is rad also.

The car and board belong to Riccardo Chiosi from Italy. The car is a ’64 Skoda 1000 MB and the board is a 5′ 8″ Dr Ank. So nice

Death Spray Custom - XS650 Bones

Came across the great paint and design work by Death Spray Customs via Sideburn Magazine. There’s some ace stuff in the portfolio and the blog is a good blend of bikes, motos, cars and design. Looks like the dude has a XS650 like me too. Good stuff

Crucial BMX Caddy. All BMXers love a caddy right

I’m working on a new flyer for my buddy Scott at Crucial BMX Shop and thought I’d give a sneak peek. Its a bit of a collage of different drawings and here are 2 from it. One of Scotts super sick Caddy and a mug shot of Scott himself.  Hope the finished piece turns out okay.  Crucial has just moved / moving into an amazing new premises only a few yards down the road. I got the tour the other week and believe me its impressive for a BMX shop. Its gonna be amazing.

Matilda, my 1962 VW Split Panel

All this motorbike tinkering has got me all nostalgic about my old long lost babies, my old mini 1275GT (1380) and Matilda my 1962 VW Splitty panel van. Miss em so much. I hope they’re being looked after where ever they are. :(
