The Space Between Lines: Alex Staidle Draws Shopify’s Le Mans Racecar
By Petrolicious
Alex Staidle draws Shopify founder Tobi Lütke's Le Mans car by hand for a special edition of The Petrolicious Post at SEMA 2026. Alex is a former military air traffic controller and rally co-driver who picked up a pen three or four years ago in Gualala, California, where everything closes at seven and it's dark by five in the winter. The first time he sold a piece, he thought it had been lost. Today he sells his work through his own Shopify store and through Petrolicious on Shopify Collective. This fall, with Petrolicious, he made a one-off drawing of the #14 TDS Racing Oreca LMP2 that Tobi L…
Toms Cars: Jaguar XKD 522 & XKD 531 #drivetastefully #petrolicious #jaguardtype
By Petrolicious
The Jaguar D-Type was a radical fusion of beauty and aviation-inspired engineering with one singular purpose: to conquer Le Mans. After the original owner, Tom, passed away, friends Jeremy and Bill found themselves in the care of XKD 522 and XKD 531. Both cars were in desperate need of restoration but each held a unique story. XKD 522 was one of only two factory red D-Types and was plucked from its pedestal in the middle of the 1955 LA Autoshow to be piloted by Carrol Shelby after he crashed his Ferrari. XKD 531 was an icon of the late 50s Kustom Kulture movement and is an emblematic piece of…

Metal Shaping Masterclass with Runge Cars
By Petrolicious
Chris Runge spent five days teaching a young metalshaper and never once saw the kid's phone. That detail says more about what happens inside Runge Cars than any spec sheet could. Runge taught himself coachbuilding in a Minnesota barn with books, a homemade English wheel, and a found set of tools, because in 2010 there was nowhere to go and nobody to ask. Fifteen years later a Piston Foundation scholar named Vincent Ramirez walked into his shop for a week of metalshaping training, and the thing Runge went looking for and never found finally existed, with him standing at the front of it. The st…
The Long Way to Churchtown
By Petrolicious
Todd and Monica Brown have spent 25 years finding small producers for 109 Cheese & Wine. On Mondays, their day off, they go looking for more in a 1970 Lancia Flavia that covered most of its 33,000 miles in Rome. This drive took them to Churchtown Dairy, where Mel of McGrath Cheese walked them through the creamery and the caves under the hill. A calf about half an hour old was waiting for them in the barn.

The Coastal Road: Proteus Jaguar D-Type
By Petrolicious
No roof. No windscreen on the passenger side. A long-stroke Jaguar six making around 300 horsepower in a car that weighs about what a '71 911 weighs. The D-type replica lives at Beeline in Santa Cruz, where Nic Cuarta keeps it sorted for its owner. Headers sit in front of the passenger's knees. The exhaust exits on that side too. Highway One with the fog coming in off the Pacific, then a right turn into the redwoods on a road a lane and a half wide. Intake roar and backfires on the overrun. "You're behind a sport bike windscreen," Nic says. "It's motorcycle loud. You're in the environment." D…
Pacific Coast Highway | Proteus Jaguar D-Type
By Petrolicious
Nic Cuarta knew the D-Type before he knew the man who owned it. Years ago, while cutting his teeth at his family’s vintage Jaguar shop in Florida, the car came through the door. Nic never worked on it. He just remembers standing there thinking how cool it was. Years later, after starting Beeline in Santa Cruz, the same D-Type turned up again, this time only a couple of blocks away. Today, its owner Jay is a mentor and advisor to Nic, and the D-Type has become a familiar presence at the shop. It’s a replica, built from period Jaguar components and later versions of what Jaguar engineered at th…
Still Kicking Up Dust: Lime Rock Historics
By Petrolicious
The 44th running of Lime Rock's Historic Festival was built around cars that still race. Jocko Maggiacomo waved the green flag fifty years after he won the Trans Am title in an ex-Donohue Javelin, then held court on how he beat cars with deeper pockets. Alfa Romeo was the featured marque, which put Miles Collier's 1964 Sebring-winning TZ on track, unrestored and running hard. None of these cars were made to sit still. The rest of the weekend, from the Thursday parade to a wet Monday, is in the recap. Directed by: Jacob Hopkins https://instagram.com/_jacobmhopkins_ Read the article: https://pe…
One Shot: The Sign Painter and the Ferrari
By Petrolicious
Every livery on a vintage race car is a decision somebody either made or dodged. Vinyl is how you dodge it. Print it tonight, stick it on tomorrow, peel it off when the car changes hands and let the next owner not decide either. Bailey Clayton is the other option. When a shop in South San Francisco sent Bailey Clayton a folder of black and white photographs of a 1956 Ferrari 500 TR, the ask was to put it back the way it left Reims. That meant reading brushstrokes off a 70-year-old print, catching a crest that had changed years, and putting down paint that isn't coming off. He calls it the pur…

The Permission Slip: Jim Glass’ 1967 Trans-Am Camaro
By Petrolicious
At 14, Jim Glass got a permission slip from his mother and went racing. His 1967 Camaro is still doing the same thing. It raced Trans-Am in period, spent years hidden under white Rustoleum, and came back with an original DZ302 and its old racing number freshly lettered by the man who drove it in 1972. Then join us at Lime Rock Park for Historic Festival 44, September 4–7.

The Permission Slip: Jim Glass’ 1967 Trans-Am Camaro
By Petrolicious
“I had to talk to my mother really nice, because I didn't even have a driver's license,” Jim Glass says. “So she gave me a permission slip, and I went racing.” He was 14. In Kingston, New York, racing was simply what the Glass family did on weekends. His father and uncles ran dirt modifieds, and when his father moved into a faster class, the old car became Jim’s. Fifty years later, Glass is still racing. His 1967 Camaro is a real period Trans-Am car, raced by Jocko Maggiacomo in 1972 before being parked, rattle-canned white, and forgotten. Underneath it was a remarkable survivor. Glass brough…
Ground Level Garage: Keeping Brooklyn's Old Japanese Cars Alive #datsun240z #datsun280z
By Petrolicious
There’s a version of car culture that existed long before algorithms, coffee meetups, and polished social media posts. A version built in cold garages, under streetlights, with borrowed tools and friends who stayed late to help finish the job. That’s the world John Roman is fighting to preserve at Ground Level Garage in Brooklyn. Inside his shop, old Japanese street cars are still tuned by ear. Customers are taught how to work on their own cars. Friends walk through the door and immediately start helping however they can. Nothing is precious. Everything gets driven.
Burning In: Steve Theo's 1965 Mustang
By Petrolicious
Steve Theo has been making photographs since 1970. Sheet film under a black cloth, everything printed by hand with the seconds counted in his head. He shoots digital now because the work demands it. "It's like driving an electric car," he says. "It does everything for you." He wants the same thing from a car. A red 1965 Mustang fastback with three pedals and nothing clever about it. He picked it out in a cinema in the 1960s and didn't have one until 1988. This one arrived three years ago and has just done 1,200 miles to France.

Sunday Serenity - Toyota Supra MkIV
By Petrolicious
It's 11:00 a.m. on a Tuesday in the redwood forests of the San Francisco Bay Area, and somehow Taj Turner's MkIV Toyota Supra is still attracting attention. A quick stop at Alice's Restaurant turns into another notification on his phone. Someone spotted the car and tagged him on social media while he was in the bathroom. It wouldn't be the last time that day. Despite being miles from any car meet or Cars & Coffee, the Supra kept appearing on strangers' stories, proving that some cars transcend the enthusiast world and become cultural icons. For Taj, the journey to this Supra began decades ear…
Wake the Hills: Corvette L88
By Petrolicious
430 horsepower, according to Chevrolet. A 12.5:1-compression 427, aluminum heads, 850-cfm Holley and 103-octane fuel told a slightly different story. 1969 Corvette L88. Watch the full Morning Coffee film. Drive Tastefully® #drivetastefully #petrolicious
Wake the Hills: GM's Most Legendary Big-Block Corvette
By Petrolicious
The L88 was not built to be a comfortable Corvette with a bigger engine. Developed under Zora Arkus-Duntov, it was Chevrolet's competition-minded version of the 427: 12.5:1 compression, aluminum cylinder heads, an 850-cfm Holley carburetor, an aggressive solid-lifter cam and a requirement for 103-octane fuel. Chevrolet officially rated it at 430 horsepower, although its true output was understood to be considerably higher. The rest of the specification made Chevrolet's intentions equally clear. L88 buyers traded creature comforts for heavy-duty suspension, brakes and drivetrain components. Th…
