Pelican Parts Forums - Deus ex machina

Went down to DEUS EX MACHINA on the corner of Lincoln and Venice in Venince last Thursday....Book intro for a new book THE RIDE......some of the cars featured were in the parking lot.

Gestalten Book Launch June 23rd - Venice | Deus Ex MachinaDeus Ex Machina

A spectacular ensemble of some the most iconic characters and cars from today's custom car scene from Southern California roared onto the premises of the Emporium Of Postmodern Activities last Thursday to celebrate the launch of Gestalten's new book The Drive, as well as Surf Odyssey. In addition, motorcycle builders from Gestalten's The Ride book, such as Shinya Kimura, brought their handiwork as well, turning the event into a multifarious extravaganza of combustible awesomeness. Traces of the stuff run thru the veins of Deus Ex Machina's bloodstream, evident by the tingles, euphoria and pupil dilation when we get near one of these beasts. Gestalten's Julia Eckhardt and Maximilian Funk, the editor of the book were over from the publishing house's headquarters in Germany to greet the builders and as well as Jared Zaugg, a stateside editor for other Gestalten titles such as Gentlemen, Start Your Engines.

Rod Emory's brought a few of his Outlaw Porsche 356, each with a unique beauty that never get old. The Stanceworks guys, Mike Burroughs and Andrew Ritter brought up the infamous Rusty Slammington, once a lowly BMW 5 series and in its latest version been fully race-car'd out and louder and meaner than ever.
