CHRISTINE, BullBalls, Emergency, Hot Rods, Concepts & Curls!
Welcome to America’s AUTOMOTIVE POP CULTURE DAILY! Yes, we are excited to live in a country where there are so many cool cars! Let’s start ‘er up with a MASTERPRINT of CHRISTINE and Fireball Peep Snap of Actor ALEXANDRA PAUL! Yup, she was the young girl in the film who SURVIVED the Killer Car!
BUT DID YOU KNOW?? The movie used more than 20 Plymouths, including Furys, Belvederes, and Savoys. They were painted red and white, and the gold trim was painted silver. Crashed, set on fire, and crushed… the remaining cars were used to promote the movie and then sold to collectors. Stephen King chose the 1958 Plymouth Fury because he thought it was a “forgotten car.” Now it’s IMMORTALIZED!
Also in today’s EVIL CAR BLAST… Fireball Car Show Peeps reveal RICK & ELIANE WHITE, Wrench Nation’s FRANK LEUTZ interviewing Tommy, Fireball having a stern conversation in a Bull Market NEW YORK and ETHAN BRYAN with his stunning perfect HERBIE!

ROBOCOP, Emergency, Peeps, Pinup, The General & The Windsong
Welcome to AUTOMOTIVE POP CULTURE DAILY! How’r you guys holdin’ up with the FIRES?? Leave a Comment! Today, we HIT IT HARD with a ROBOCOP Behind the Scenes and Fireball’s ROBODUKE MASTERPRINT! Not only did Director Paul Verhoven shoot the film, but he had his own RoboArm!
DID YOU KNOW?? The original plan was for RoboCop to drive a futuristic police car called the Robo-Mobile or the Turbo-Car, but it was deemed too ridiculous. Yea, we’d have to agree with that one. But Ford was not involved in the production of the first RoboCop movie and was upset that its Ford Taurus’ were used in such a violent film. But now… I think they’re ok with it. Silly Ford doods…
Also in today’s ROBOBLAST… The Cast of EMERGENCY along with Fireball’s #1 BEST SELLER… the SQUAD 51!! Fireball Peeps at shows include Master Photographer PEP WILLIAMS, a Fireball Commission for Frenchman PIERRE BOGROS, Pinstriper JOHNNY MARTINEZ and Superfan GOOD DOG CARL!!

It starred Randolph Mantooth and Kevin Tighe. And today, Fireball’s SKETCH of SQUAD 51 gets paired nicely with the brand new ENGINE 51! Get it in the Garage and stay FROSTY!

BONUS SKETCH! Bosozoku Celica, Mini 220, Diecast & EMERGENCY
I get to SKETCH a lot of cool cars like HiroK’s BOSOZOKU Celica GT you see here. The cooler the BETTER, I always say. But I’m so grateful when someone reaches out and hires me to whip-snap their ride and it results in 5 cars for SEMA and a crap load of others coming!
But each say is a GIFT and getting to SKETCH Concept Art for you guys and for Movies is the BEST! So today, along with Hiro’s ride comes the all-new MINI 220. A concept, that although didn’t get built in my shop, made it into the GARAGE for you guys who love the Coops. All my MINIS were fast and a little scary, but this one will only chill on your wall and look badass. So no worries.
Also found this VINTAGE BALL of me doin’ the Diecast thing in 1973 with some Corgi’s and Dinkys! You can’t really see it, but in the upper right corner was a massive close-up photo of HARPO MARX laughing. I woke up to the picture for YEARS! No wonder I love havin’ a good time!
And… a word of CAUTION. The latest EMERGENCY CANVAS PRINT just launched this morning may cause severe coolness in you world. So BEWARE. This is my Official Disclaimer as I don’t want your head to POP OFF when someone enters your crib and starts flippin’ the wild weenie. They may… and you’ll have to handle it.
Tons of new BEST OF SHOW episodes are coming every day so be sure to SUBSCRIBE to the Youtube Channel!
And finally… A BIG THANK YOU to today’s NEW SUBSCRIBERS to the Garage! You guys ROCK!!

EMERGENCY Squad 51 gets called to the Fireball Tim Garage…
Been wanting to do this SKETCH for a long time and more requests on this one that even the BATMOBILE!
So today, we launch SQUAD 51 from EMERGENCY! And we’ve got some really cool stuff in THE GARAGE here! One of my favorite shows as a kid, I dreamed of being a Fireman and going on many adventures. These guys were likable, heroic and exciting. Although I became a DESIGNER instead, I’ve always admired Firefighters like no one else. If you personally know one, then give them the RESPECT they deserve.
DID YOU KNOW?? The “Squad 51” in the Los Angeles County Fire Museum is the last of three vehicles of that model used during the filming of Emergency!. The first was a 1972 D300 1 ton truck cab and chassis. This squad appeared in the first two seasons. An identical 1973 D300 appeared during the third season. LA County Fire Station 127 (Station 51) in Carson City, CA, is preserved as it was during filming of “Emergency!” The station is dedicated to the memory of the show’s producer Robert A. Cinader.
