If you’re a fan of the burnout scene, then you’ve probably been looking at the back of Peter Flint’s head – usually protected under a wide-brimmed straw hat – for a number of years. He’s probably covered every burnout competition at some point over the last 10 years and his YouTube channel and website are […]
Jacques Pieters loves bikes, his passion for the two-wheeled beasts is evident when you begin to talk to him – he is the real deal. His interest started when he was growing up in South Africa. When he had the spare time he was working on customising bike after bike and teaching himself new skills. […]
For the past four years, Lennard Vidot has been building this ’68 Dodge Charger, and it’s a much different animal to the wild methanol-fuelled Holden he built 10 years ago. “I got the Charger out of California. It was an old drag car and it had a half cage and gutted interior. It was a […]

One critical element in most of their builds is the use of Australian-made, […]
I hate to admit it, but this was my first Classic Cars & Coffee experience since it’s inception here in Perth. With my weekends filled with late nights Djing, it is hard to muster the energy to wake up after a few hours sleep and pick up the camera – soft, I know. So, this […]
As an early teen, Demi Newcombe’s bedroom walls were plastered with early-Commodore posters, and she later purchased a Calais of her own before she’d even learnt to drive! Buying one eight years ago – well before the price of early Commos headed north – has allowed Demi to put her hard-earned into a raft […]
I found myself back at Benzenes Detailing again last month with Johnny Ielati but this time around, it wasn’t Aussie or American steel I was shooting it was a mixture of beauty and brawn – some European machines that would send anyone’s heart racing.

The Yokohama World Time Attack Challenge (WTAC) is now recognised as one of the greatest motor racing spectacles in the world – and for good reason, the action is plentiful and much like Mabo, it’s the vibe and, no that’s it, it’s the vibe. The event taps into everything that makes cars fun. I finally got […]
