Happy Birthday, LeSupra!
Ende 2006. Zwanzig Jahre ist das jetzt her. Wenn mir damals jemand gesagt hätte, dass der »LeSupra« zwei Jahrzehnte später nicht nur immer noch lebt, sondern radikaler und kompromissloser ist als je zuvor, hätte ich wohl nur wehmütig gelächelt. Denn seien wir ehrlich: Die meisten dieser Umbauten sterben irgendwann einen stillen Tod in irgendeiner Scheune.
Back to Daddy
Blame it on me. I am a bad person. I abused my 1972 Pontiac "LeSupra" LeMans – I left it outside.
Beautiful Beast
During our Chromjuwelen En Route video shoot last weekend — see sneak previews above — I had the opportunity to race my Nippon Pontiac for a few meters. Damn, that Poncho kicks *ss. Maybe this is due to the fact the "Kustom City family" worked a little on the setup of my 7M-GTE?

Just in case you have not ordered your Muscle Cars Poster from Amilcar de Carvalho Fernandes yet — do it now! Here are some bigger images.
LeSupra Deluxe
Some images I have just stolen from Jo Fischer. They show the friggin' unbelievable "Cremer" (metal god and welding wizard), and Oliver Kaps (Style Deluxe) working on my Poncho. If you are interested in what they are really doing - beside trying to look authentic and greasy - check this out. It's stunning!
Sneak Preview: My Pontiac gets some minor modification
That's exactly why I love working with Oliver Kaps and Christian Cremer from Style Deluxe Hamburg so much: Do you recognize, what he did to my rear bumper? Yep, he welded it on! And do you see bondo anywhere? Nope - 'cause he is working with lead.
