Combustion In Mind

Mainly an Instagram feed of stuff I find interesting. I like taking pictures, using various formats but this feed will include everything from cars, bikes, music, experiences, places, photography, but always with combustion in mind.

Check these out. Just down the road from Rookies in the countryside somewhere, just left to rot. The dash on the Alfa is awesome, definitely too far gone but the way the paint is pealing of the door is pretty cool. The Mk1 Golf apparently has some rare bits on it/in it, some pretty rad shelf speakers and some gauges in the centre console. The Mk3 (?) Golf has a Jetta front end, though I didn't get a picture of that. Out of the three I'd have the Alfa just for the dash.

Your morning dose of Supercar, today, a Lamborghini Huracan Spyder. Nice colour combo with the roof. #lamborghini #huracan #lambo #ragingbull #spyder #v10power #droptop #japan #supercardaily #nagoya #autumn (at Nagoya-shi, Aichi, Japan) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqODeF5D3n5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=obdfi0mxih33

Some car spots the other day. Datsun Fairlady 2+2, Nissan Skyline GT Turbo, and a 4 door Hakosuka Skyline covered in dust. These were all in front of a truck garage, I asked the guys there if its OK to take some pictures and they were a little surprised I was interested in these. Really cool though. #tatspot #japan #speedhunting #nissanskyline #hakosuka #2+2 #skylinegtturbo #nagoya #fendermirrors #atthattime #savethemall #fairladyz (at Nagoya-shi, Aichi, Japan) https://www.instagram.com/p/BptuZD3j7zU/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1xdpqgaisdva6

Bwaap! Bwaap bwaaap!! I've got a load of clips from Ebisu summer Matsuri I'm cutting together as a montage but this was one of the best. Bloody awesome driving, can't wait to see what it all comes together like! (at Ebisu Circuit) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpjdURKA4Sq/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1nkjgvjsrrtem

Found a Datsun Sunny on the commute to Toyota today. A different route to the norm, there's always things to find. The car's all complete and aside from the surface rust there's not a lot that needs to be done to get it back on the road, it would seem... #savethemall #patina #datsunsunny #whatsyourstory #japan #aichi #sunnygx #racingstripes #fendermirrors #tatspot (at Toyota, Aichi) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpQoOqDAKpD/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=qrz0tfj6f1ou

Around the area of the garage/dealer I bought my car from (Three Piece Gifu) there's a lot of other old car garages. Not so much dealerships but places that deal with older cars. I took a wrong turn when we left there after getting the car checked over, and stumbled across this yard. The cover was already off the wide body Porsche, and there's a complete Celica and other porches in various states of disrepair too, including a slant nose. The garage didn't seem to have a name on the front so not sure what it was called, cool to see either way though. These were shot on the Nikon f501, Fujifilm Acros 100. #gifu #japan #porsche #slantnose #widebody #aircooled #explore #shootfilm #speedhunting #celicagtv #celica #savethemall #tatspot #oldcar #ポルシェ #昔 #shootfilm #believeinfilm #nikonf501 #nikon #fujifilm #acros100 (at Gifu) https://www.instagram.com/p/Boprlq9gJJn/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1p89uh1hsqvla

Reason number 197389 why I love Japan, wondering round Central Nagoya and stumble across some killer hot roads, being worked on at the side of the road. The chop on the first one is insane. The supercharger on the second one is equally as awesome. #japan #nagoya #lovejapan #chopped #hotrod #ratrod #supercharger #roadsidemaintenance #retrodaily #boogityboogityboogity #ford #phat #chrome (at Nagoya-shi, Aichi, Japan) https://www.instagram.com/p/Boog9LVA5Ek/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=17vrs6210ssuh

Got a load of film back from the developers. This is Suwon and Seoul, South Korea 🇰🇷, shot back in May, on Acros 100 pushed to 400. I was there two weeks for work so had a weekend in the middle to explore. 80s architecture with all the neon signage you could ever imagine, really cool cyber vibe stuff. Spectacular at night, especially when it's raining. Shame I only took black and white film! The trains are seemingly old US diesel locomotives, carriages are straight out of the 60s. Stumbled across a show in the middle of Seoul, a Judo team were giving demonstrations which blew my mind. Amazing what those guys can do as a team. #seoul #suwon #southkorea #cityscape #diesellocomotive #rollingcoal #shootfilm #acros100 #pushfilm #believeinfilm #blackandwhite #pentaxmesuper #pentax #contrast #cybervibe #explore #bestjobintheworld #judo #judochop #80sarchitecture #neonnights (at Seoul, Korea) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bokf_-rgDbl/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=hdrth159x8fj

Spotted an Isuzu Bellett GT in an apartment car park the other day. Very straight! Looked to be used daily too.

Lovely little Honda T360 pickup we spotted on our way up through the mountains one day. Radical, 360cc of pure utilitarian power. There were cool little touches, it was signed on the dash by someone who I think was a famous race driver back in the day but I can't recall the name, and also the the semi dished steering wheel mounted the wrong way so as to give the driver some more arm room. I doubt I'd fit but I'd be happy dailying this! #honda #keicar #keipickup #ホンダ #昔 #retrodaily #fujicolorindustrial100 #pentaxmesuper #shootfilm #360ccisallthecapacityyouneed #twocylinder https://www.instagram.com/p/BnQ3Qjdg7o9/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1yf4jlu204eh

Plymouth Roadrunner? Not sure, obviously not the one everyone knows IS a roadrunner, but still bloody cool. Had the Roadrunner down the side at least... #tatspot #plymouth #roadrunner #plymouthroadrunner #americanmuscle #doaburnout #japan #oyama #speedhunting #quadheadlights (at Oyama, Tochigi) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnGRRkkg7aQ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1dl1dmpb6d5c0

Went back to a small village in the Gifu mountains at the weekend. Mixed weather made for some interesting pictures, we've been there I'd say 4 or 5 times now. But of course, Japan keeps on giving. I found this down a road I haven't walked down before. Complete, solid, and awesome, though it's in pretty deep now. This thing is huge. I have some more pictures on film that I'll put up once I get those back, just so cool finding stuff like this. James was tempted to knock on the door of the house it seemed to belong to to make him an offer! Can you imagine how baller it would be to rock this exactly as it is? #japan #explore #gifu #cadillac #cadillacdeville #whatsyourstory #ranwhenparked #patina #ifyougodowntothewoodstoday #baller #columnshift (at Gifu) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bm--8AVAmBT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1o4cly1l6be73

Ooohhhh hedge find! Isuzu 117 tucked behind a small store that sold US bricabrack. Never seen one in yellow! There was also something under a cover on the far corner but it was too dark to make out a shape. #tatspot #japan #tochigi #isuzu117coupe #retrocar #lookssolidenough #hedgehunting #oldcar #kyusha (at Oyama, Tochigi) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnFEy3FghSh/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=c4frotg5mitd

This is a vending machine on another level. You watch a live feed of your coffee being made whilst listening to what I can only describe as lift music. It even screws on the lid for you!! #vendingmachinelevelup #livefeedcoffeebrew #onlyinjapan #japan #liftmusic #whatsbehinddoornumberone #vendingmachine #じはんき (at 出流原PA)
