ZEN EOMM

shiba
Happy dogo is happy!

What an awesome day (that ended at 2AM for me lol). So many faces I’ve not seen in 10+ years.

Thanks to all that came along. Seeing you guys wearing ZEN again blows my mind! Special thanks to Reggie for feeding us and Gi for running the ZEN shop.

I brought my camera, but as usual I failed to get any shots as I was talking too much!

Hey Daniel!

Last week I was invited out to Cult & Classic to visit some old friends I’ve not seen in many many years.

Turns out Reggie who drove me out to the meet (was a bit of a road trip!) didn’t tell the others that I was going to be there, and man did it make for some funny and memorable reactions.

Jaws dropped, literally!

Was awesome to catch up with these lovely people. They’re all just so… nice! It makes me wonder whether we lost touch because I was in such a dark place.
Lots to chew on, or maybe not? Either way it was a great day out, lots of stories, lots of laughs, life’s good!

Today I was introduced to Nick Cummins of Electrogusto who convert classic cars to electric, and man they’ve got a lot of wild projects on the go. Visiting his shop in Petersham and meeting his crew brought back huge ZEN Leichhardt memories for me. It’s a grungy space; texture, grit, all juxtaposing against the super clean 356 Porsche tribute speedster and 1973 VW Type 3 squareback wagon found on the lot.

Jumping from project to project it’s evident that Nick is a ‘yes man’. Where my mechanics and I have struggled to fabricate parts to make my cars work, Nick and his crew just get down and make things happen. Whether it’s a 3D printed dashboard, console, custom switches or engine mounts, I get the feeling these guys can literally do anything (and that’s a rare thing!).

Was an absolute pleasure to meet Nick. The man is a unicorn and I feel blessed to have met another real one. I had no intentions of making a feature out of the visit, but I had my Ricoh GR in my pocket so I rattled off a few off-the-cuff shots. Would really love to revisit Nick with Nick (Turner) and shot more photos and some video too so keep an eye out for that. In the meantime check out the AMAZING short film on the Electrogusto web site: https://www.electrogusto.com.au

RUST! We go out and inspect the sad state of the ZEN R32 GT-R


Rusty cage.

Been on big ups lately, but going out west to to inspect the sad state of the ZEN R32 GT-R was a massive downer. I’ve got no-one but myself to blame for the state it’s in. Not being one to hide anything, here’s a vid showing the rust damage in all it’s glory.

Nick and I were invited out to SubiNats at Sydney Motorsport Park yesterday. I’ve not been to an automotive event in years! Was a rad day out, and a perfect excuse to take a few shots with my new 85mm lens (which I really struggled with as you can tell with some of the super tight framing).

Full feature will be on ZEN Blog soon!
