The Daily Werks Crew: Tuesday Night Meet at Sears


So if you've ever passed by Sears Hardware on a Tuesday night near Oxford Valley Mall, you've probably wondered what all of those kids were doing, right?  Well, being part of that scene for quite a while now, I decided to take some pics of a meet just to show you.


For my boys and me it's always a tradition to go to Wings To Go for some chicken or some ish.  We love hanging out and talking cars or whatever the hell is on our mind before we head out to chill at the meets.


Usually you'll see my boy Edd of The Daily Werks Crew taking pictures.  He's pretty handy with his camera, and he doesn't even use a DSLR like most local photographers.  Check out Tyler's Miata (look up one)!!


Lots of Hondas and Acuras always show up to the meets.  Vdubs are welcome too!  Check out Mike's white Teggy and Blaine's black one.



Matt's Civic repping a couple of decals and an RIP Eddie Brodecki sticker.  Rest in peace DC5 buddy...


My boy Paul showed up with a new Civic on deck as well.  He says that he just ordered fenders to have them fixed and that he's getting curb rash on his wheels taken care of as well.  He owned a pretty clean Chevy S10 before this so my hopes are up for Paul!


And if you're rocking a camera and a strap at these meets, be sure to bring a tripod as well-- being ready to shoot at any time.  You could be asked to snap pics at any moment.  So, when these guys asked me to take a couple of pictures of their heavy duty trucks, I decided "why the hell not."


The Chevy flatbed you see above has a chrome differential casing and is in pretty good condition.  Wonder if this kid uses this as a work truck...who am I kidding, he's got to...


We then lined the trucks up and got some shots after deciding that we wanted pictures of these rear-wheel drive beasts.  Don't worry, you'll see the other one I'm talking about too.


'MURICA.


The other person who asked me to shoot his truck was driving a Ford Turbo-Diesel Powerstroke with a John Deer, Green paint job.  When asked for his buying price, he said he only paid $3500.  Now I know why these boys are driving trucks!  Lots of torque and power for a little price...not to mention they're reliable.


As always, all good things must come to an end guys.  That being said...


...I'm signing out.  Lexi.Laron, represent.

Tim's '91 C4 Corvette

Hey guys, so back once again-- it is I, Lexi.Laron's main writer!!!  There is only one writer, but still it's pretty cool to scream at people.

ANYWAY.

Tonight my boy posted a picture of his '91 C4 Corvette to Facebook, and I knew he had been wanting to get a shoot in, so I commented on that picture and he got to my house faster than a bat outta hell (not that doing so would be a problem driving a '91 C4 Corvette).

We decided we'd go to Tyler Park in Newtown, PA to celebrate the nice weather we've been having recently and find some nice springtime, windy roads.

When I first got out of the car to take pics of the car, Tim told me he had just got finished washing the car.  This was a miracle as a dirty, white car is a disaster for any shoot.


Here's some ass action.


More ass action from the WIDE angle!


Now, on top of this beastly L98 V8 engine is a Z28 with machined internals.  The owner said that a family member works as a machinist and all he had to do was pay for the parts.  Props to "Mike," the owner of the Camaro.


Big ass brake master cylinder, huh!  Two reservoirs for extra braking power!  I'd expect a sports car to have a smaller master cylinder for a harder brake pedal, but a lot of this engine bay seemed strangely engineered, so I'll take that, Chevy.


Flip-up headlights hiding under the fiberglass hood.


Not a bad interior for a '91!





Then Tim and I headed to a side-road at Tyler Park.  I had the foreground, but I didn't have the backdrop in the field that we shot at in the above shots.  More photos!



PEEDON.


From a distance, she lurks.


Like a tiger, she growls.


She lets out a ROAR! 


 I love pop-up headlights.  <3
 

At the end of the day, Tim's Vette is one hell of a fast car with a six speed and a big-ass V8.  From the blade-like wheels wrapped in sticky Goodyear Tires to the fiberglass body, this is one present day American-Made marvel.


Thanks for reading!
