CHiPS, Celebs, Kustoms, Stangs, Girls & a 1000HP WAGON!!

After an overwhelming demand, Fireball has finally SKETCHED UP a CHiPS KAWASAKI KZ1000 MOTORCYCLE MASTERPRINT!!! One of our favorite TV Shows of the 70’s and early 80’s, this super cop bike is now on CANVAS, MUGS & TEES! Check it out NOW!

DID YOU KNOW?? The actors on CHiPS actually did ride and Larry Wilcox was very competent… But after about the second season, and due to safety, they did almost all trailer shots… which always look terrible! But in the first season, you can often see the bikes moving independently as they talk on completely open freeways!

Also in today SOOPER DOOPER BLAST, Sexy EMMA PEEL from THE AVENGERS, Frank BULLITT and his trust Steed, Fireball with the 350hp XSELL MINI, a Ventura street spotted SuperSTANG, Cruisin For A Cure with some lovely RED FIREBALL GIRLS and another MUSTANG MASTERPRINT!

Today’s HOT EPISODE is a Bonkers 1000HP VOLVO DRAG WAGON!! WATCH!!

1929 FORD, Kurt Russell, Carradine, Fireball Girls & BUGS!!

What are the things that get you exited in AUTOMOTIVE POP CULTURE? Here at the FTG, it’s things like Fireball’s all-new 1929 FORD CUSTOM PICKUP MASTERPRINT! This is Johnny Martinez’s ride and a show winner everywhere it goes. Be sure to check out Johnny’s hysterical interview on this week’s CAR SHOW SAFARI!

DID YOU KNOW?? The ’29 FORD MODEL A PICKUP was designed to be a truck… and was faster than the 1925 Model T pickup! It had a top speed of around 65mph, and some say it could reach that speed pretty easily. However, the Model AA version of the Model A had a lower gearing and a longer wheelbase which limited its top speed to just over 30 mph. SO faast…

Also in today rip-roarin’ BLAST… Fireball vintage snaps with Snake himself, KURT RUSSELL! This shot from the after-party for the film “ELVIS,” which Fireball Pop wrote and produced. Also, DAVID CARRADINE on set for KILL BILL (What’s the Car?), Fireball with his PURSUIT MINI for the Speed Channel Show STREET TUNER CHALLENGE, a Bonkers BUG at the Hot Wheels Legends Tour, ‘nuther Fireball MINI (The MACH 3) at an early Bimmerfest with… ahem, a Fireball GIRL! PLUS, a super cool BTTF DELOREAN SKETCH and Geezzup’s Gregg Ovist shows off his Fireball CHEVY CUSTOM ART based on the car he built! Whoa!

THIS SATURDAY it’s PARADE OF FRIGHTS in Channel Islands!! Fireball will be there!

FERRARI, Kevin Sorbo, Buckaroo, Terminator, & Car Girls!

Are you a fan of EXOTICS? Well, the FTG has just the thing with Fireball’s stunning LA FERRARI APERTA MASTERPRINT SKETCH! This thing is so fast that it might take you some time to catch it before it ends up on your Garage Wall! PLUS, MUGS & TEES! GO NOW!

DID YOU KNOW?? From Ferraris in Pop Culture… Pierce Brosnan debuts as 007 in GOLDENEYE, zipping down a winding European road in a silver Aston Martin DB5. Because he’s James Bond and Goldeneye is his movie, that Aston Martin is allowed to keep pace as a red Ferrari 355 GTS appears in his mirrors. It takes some movie magic and a hefty suspension of disbelief that femme fatale Xenia Onatopp (Famke Janssen) wouldn’t simply leave Bond in her rearview.

Perhaps Brosnan has a preference for Italian automobiles, given that a Ferrari 360 Modena appears in the introduction to his final film in the franchise, DIE ANOTHER DAY.

Also in today’s terminating BLAST, Fireball snaps with Hercules KEVIN SORBO, some Automotive Pop Culture with BUCKAROO BANZAI (Sketch Coming Soon!), Fireball in the shop with a NEW TERMINATING SECURITY SYSTEM, a super cool Military RAT BUG, some sexy cool MINI FANS snap with Fireball’s 500hp Cooper Crusher and another stunning FORD BRONCO AMERICANA MASTERPRINT!

FURIOUS GREEN, Celebs, Hollywood Rides, Art & the BLUES!

We all know that getting MAD ain’t GOOD. Especially when it comes to Automotive Pop Culture… But being FAST & FURIOUS is a whole ‘nuther story! So Fireball sketched up this HOT MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE as a Commission for a Fan and now… GREEN is FURIOUS! Check it out in the Garage and get Fireball to do YOUR FAV too!

DID YOU KNOW?? 78 cars were wrecked in making the movie. One of the stunts wasn’t real, though. When Brian and Dom are racing across the train track as a train bears down on them, the two cars driving across the track and the train were shot separately. PLUS… The HONDA S2000 driven by Devon Aoki’s ‘Suki’ might not look familiar as underneath that coat of pink paint sits the exact same car piloted by Rick Yule’s Johnny Tran in The Fast and the Furious.

Also in today’s BLAST… Fireball snaps with John Paul DeGoria of PAUL MITCHELL who was driving a sick BLACK COBRA to WHEELS AND WAVES… and buddy DAVE MAREK who is ACURA’s Executive Creative Director at Honda R&D. And a lover of all things JAPANESE and BEER!

DUKE OF SPEED, Dick Van Dyke, Trek, Vader and KUSTOMS!

Car Party on, ppl! Automotive Pop Culture has never been stronger… and here at the FTG, our job is to feed the BEAST! So today, it’s an all-new DUKE OF SPEED MASHUP ART!! Imagine the Duke Boys getting a hold of Speed Racer’s MACH 5? Or maybe Speed got inspired by the Dukes runnin’ from the COPS? Either way… Coolness has a Cometh INTO THE GARAGE! But, there’s more…

DID YOU KNOW?? The Mach 5 was inspired by the Ferrari 250 TestaRossa, the Ford GT40, and the Aston Martin from James Bond. The car’s large red M on the hood is a tribute to Japanese actor Toshiro Mifune. In the original Japanese version, Speed Racer’s name is Go Mifune, after the actor. Go is a Japanese homophone for the number 5, which is also the number on his race car… and the yellow letter G on Speed Racer’s shirt represents the number 5!

In today’s blast, Fireball welcomes Acting Legend DICK VAN DYKE at a Gallery Show in Malibu, past buddy TONY DOW snapped with some Ice Cream in Hollywood and Fireball spots Agent Coleson from MARVEL… Actor CLARK GREGG! Plus, a Vintage snap of WILLIAM SHATNER atop Gene Winfield’s REACTOR! This photo actually made Gene’s career!

Still more in the Garage with awesome DUKE VADER MASTERPRINT ART, Fireball does the Cadillac Thang and a sick pickup from Steven Garcia @SteelRollin53 from HOT WHEELS LEGENDS! And have you seen this week’s episode of CAR SHOW SAFARI? It’s here!

Now get out there and GET SHIT DONE!
