Photography by Will Mederski As a part of the new Petrolicious Marketplace, we’ll be interviewing sellers, dealers, and collectors to give our audience an inside look at some of the key figures in classic car sales, and to introduce you to some of the people behind the cars you’ll see listed on Petrolicious. We’ll also be discussing the classic car market, potential investments, and getting their take on current trends. We are always on the lookout for young-timers making a splash in the classic car world, so we recently synced-up with the duo of mid-20-year-olds behind the Austin, Texas based Dutch Safari Co. This is a story of how humble beginnings importing undiscovered Land Rovers to the US turned into a steady business that’s now growing into other niche categories. Here’s how it happened. OUR FIRST DUTCH SAFARI Shayan Bokaie: Two young people in Texas specializing in importing unique, affordable cars from Europe—how’d this come to be? Erica Plumlee: First of all,
To the extent that he’s known at all, SPOT is known for his time as the in-house producer for SST records in the 1980’s. His were the hands on the board for unimpeachable classics like Meat Puppets II, What Makes a Man Start Fires?, Zen Arcade, Milo Goes to College, and the first four Black Flag albums. He eventually retired from producing (and really, not even he could have saved What The…) to focus on performing music. But all that time, he had another, lesser-known talent as well—as a photographer. The new book Sounds of Two Eyes Opening collects SPOT’s photos of L.A., spanning from the surf/beach scene of the ‘60s to the punk/skate scene of the ‘80s, and he is (was?) a very fine shooter, with a solid eye for composition. From the publisher’s hype-sheet: Spanning the late 1960s through the early 1980s, Sounds of Two Eyes Opening offers an amazing portrait of Southern California coastal life: surfing, bikinis, roller skating and skate boarding’s fledgling days are set in contrast to iconic shots of all the key denizens of hardcore punk rock as it is being invented; candid shots of...

SET OF TWO! These stoneware wine glasses were thrown on the potters wheel in a red/tan stoneware clay then trimmed to have a finished foot. Note the subtle divots on each side of the glass for thumb and finger grip. After drying and firing I glaze them in a rich Teal glaze, Speckled White glaze or other featured color ways, dipped at an angle so you can see and feel the beautiful red glaze underneath. This tumbler holds approximately 14oz and can be used for hot or cold beverages. It is lead free and dishwasher safe- who wants to hand-wash after a lovely glass of wine?! Just toss these puppies in the dishwasher! This purchase is for a set of two. They are made one at a time so no two are exactly alike, but they are very well matched. Check my listings for matching bowls, salt wells, oil cruets, mugs, pitchers....
Power and luxury. Two things not often possible in a vintage Scout. We wanted to push the limits of both.
