The Nissan Bluebird Is A Little Beast

Saying that a car is able to get under one’s skin sounds like an exaggeration, but Nissan enthusiast Troy Ermish has more than a little appreciation for the 510. Ermish says that his love for the model comes down to one similarity between him and his cars: they’re tough.

These Chevrolet Impalas Are A Lifelong Obsession
“How can you spend 12 hours out there and work on those things all day?” Don Rogers’ wife will sometimes ask, to which he replies, “The day just flew by…I don’t know what happened.”With a love for the iconic Chevrolet Impala, Rogers’ garage is filled with two, both ’64 models. One is a hardtop, the other a convertible. What makes Rogers a bit different from most enthusiasts, however, is that he does all of the work on his cars himself.

The Gilera Milano Taranto Holds A Special Meaning
What comes to mind when you hear the words "Italian motorcycle"? Ducati? Moto Guzzi? What about Gilera, Benelli, or Laverda? Italy has a rich motorcycle history and has been producing unique and beautiful bikes for years, but here in the United States many people aren't familiar with Italian brands outside of Ducati and Moto Guzzi—many are not even familiar with the smaller single-cylinder offerings of these two brands. Hugo Gallina, owner of Vintage Italian Restoration in Southern California, has been building and restoring Italian bikes out of his garage for years.

Man, you guys keep knock in’ it outa’ the park with the videos!
Featuring Troy and his 510s once again brings the focus on the scrappy, hands on side of car culture that’s not about prestige but about the connections. Not only between man and machine, but also within the community. Troy’s been respected in the Datsun community for quite a while now and it’s amazing to me to see the continued love of these unstoppable little cars 43 years after seeing the BRE cars at “The Glen” 2.5 Trans Am Challenge. Nice job everybody!

Wow, Bluebird! That’s a car I never thought would see here in the US. When I was a kid back in Japan, I thought those cars were just lame, like today’s Camry and Corolla, never paid any attention to them. Except for the SSS. Even then I knew that was something special.
