Experrience the Ultimate Hot Rod Car KUBOTA L1802DT

It was astonished and amazed by me! It is that the car of such ideal HOT ROD and RAT ROD existed!
The strike of this form and style, and the brilliant aging was carried out to my heart. Probably this all-terrain vehicle will be a Japanese-made engine, body, and design. A finely rusty exhaust muffler like the convoy straight extended toward empty has a charming feature like a chimney. I was driven by the impulse which wants to travel in the country road in Laos which is not paved slowly ranging over this farm tractor. Are wearing the straw hat torn in drops, and the beard extended for a long time becomes pure white, and uses the long sleeve of the hemp cloth of a Henley neck as an underwear, Wearing the light-blue overalls of Karheart to which the paint adhered, of course, or the hickory overalls of Lee, probably, the rain boots of favorite Columbia are dirty with mud. A tent and an antique kitchen utensil are put on a trailer, and it travels in the ground of a frontier district in search of a place at death. I visualized such a figure and was able to be immersed in a fortunate feeling.
If it is a tread of this tire, what kind of rain falls and it will be able to run also on the bad unpaved way of a state. I have experience it became impossible to escape from the parking lot of an outdoor festival by a small car repeatedly. Truly, since it is troublesome, it cannot go all over a town, but it is an automobile very attractive to the middle age which piled up age.

Block Copy: an American Diner's Lunch Menu


This is the lunch menu of an American diner which I operated. It finished in the style of a vintage with the title menu which uses the script font of the 1950s. A background emphasizes a high-class feeling in deep brown. The photograph of hamburger sandwiches is close photographed with a zoom lens. The both-sides side was irradiated with the stroboscope flash. Three cooking photographs on the back had a weak light. The logo design of beer was introduced last time. The client offered the menu, the explanatory note of cooking, and the dish. The price of the charge of photography is 1,000 yen per piece. It becomes 8,000 yen the charge of photography with eight photographs. The size of this menu is B4. The charge of design composition work changes to 10000 yen per one side in such volume. This charge is 28000 yen in the charge of block-copy creation, and photography cost. Separately, 3,000 yen was required of printing cost and lamination cost (six-set creation).

Miyata Vintage Sports Bike Restoration & Building



I got the frame of the bicycle brand "MIYATA" representing Japan by Yahoo! Auctions. Also you can see MIYATA Industrial Co, Ltd. detail by Wikipedia. The price was 1,500 yen. The price was 4,400 yen including the shipping cost and the handling fee. I purchased this frame in August, last year. The color was red. The frame was very dirty from rust and oil. I dropped dirt and rust using the sandpaper of No. 600. If a frame is deleted, the natural complexion of steel and a white surfacer can be seen. I was going to polish and paint only a rust portion at the beginning. But, I am pleased with the remains of shaving like leopard spots. Therefore, I also deleted the portion which is not rusty and made the handle with sufficient balance. I flushed shaving powder with water. In polish work, powder disperses. Therefore, I became nakedness and ground in the bathroom. The bathroom was dyed pink with red powder and white powder. When shaving a steel pipe with a water resistant paper, if it deletes horizontally from length, gloss will come out. It is better to be rude in oil by hot water and the organic solvent, before oxidization starts. The surface of steel is good to wipe off water with a kitchen paper. The water which trespassed upon the inside of a frame is good to make it remove in a drier and sunlight. I blew twice the transparent lacquer spray purchased for 198 yen. Paint of the frame was completed. The drop handle was got from neighboring bicycle Schopp for nothing. The bicycle Schopp at whom I dropped in by chance reconditions and sells the thrown-away granny's bicycle. The drop handle neglected besides Schopp was said "I want you to sell" to the storekeeper. Then, the storekeeper yielded me the drop handle. The stem, the brake cable, the brake lever, and the bell were attached to the drop handle. I stripped the old bar tape. And the brake and others also removed. The handle had many corrosion and cracks. I polished the handlebar with the water resistant paper of No. 600. Then, the handlebar regained brightness, so that it was surprised.
