She tries and tries but never gets the car to start before the battery dies. It does sputter and wheeze a little but all that tap-tap-tapping of the gas pedal doesn't do her any good. The last few cranks just sound so pathetically slow then *click*. Various angles: under the hood, through the front windshield, open drivers door. view more.

Gotta bring some of the old works of *cough*art*cough* into the lot for the night. Don't want any of these "priceless" "artifacts" to up and disappear now, would we? First it's trying to get this cranky old Jeep going. Cranking it in the dark...and the cold, with just the skin of her feet to keep her warm. After teh Jeep, she smartened up a bit and put on her Ugg booties to get the Camaro started and moved. view more.

It's hard not film some intro footage of Kimberly basking in the hot southern summer sun. Her itty bitty shorts, tied-up button-up shirt that is barely on and some pure country leather cowgirl boots. "Guess I'm gonna take the Camaro out, if I can get it started. It's one of those beautiful days. I mean, come on, I'd look hot in it." she says, completely understating the fact that yes, she will/does look hot in that old pony car. She hops in, finds the keys and tries to get it started but that starter sounds sick, battery sounds weak and she's pumping the hell out of it and it's not sputtering. Her little drive might not be happening. view more.

Britney is driving the '74 Dodge Coronet first while Sasha films from the passenger side. They chat about, well, whatever comes to mind...the mirrors, butt sweat, shoes, the smell of gasoline and whatever else pops into their mind. I guess this what happens when I don't give girls any direction. There's a good bit of traffic on this small 2-lane country road, so it's a lot of back-and-forth from the gas to brake pedal. More of a cruise with some pedal play mixed in when Britney can swing it. They do talk about wanting to drive fast on the main highway but they weren't going that way so that never happens. view more.

**This is the right clip for this description now. Sorry for the confusion earlier this week. 3 great cold starts with Vivian in these shiny black riding-style boots. She starts out getting the little 1987 Renault GTA fired up and ready to drive down the street. Next up is the old 1980 Cadillac Coupe Deville. She's talking about how the boots she's wearing are becoming her new favorite pair of boots. She sits down, pumps the gas a few times and the car fires right up. She's revving the car mildly to warm it up good before she tries driving it because her experience in this car is that it gets stubborn if it stalls not long after it's first start of the day. She puts it in gear and as she gets on the gas to move the car it does it's muffled *thud* backfire and stalls out. Now she spends the next few minutes trying to get it fired up again but it's not starting, only sputtering. She mashes the gas pedal to the floor a few times while holding the key and it just chugs and sputters without actually starting up. Ok, she gives the car a break. When she tries it again, she holds that pedal to the floor and spins it over till it finally sputters, chugs and fires up. Lots of white smoke comes out of the exhaust and fills the yard like a giant fog rolling through. Lastly, she cold starts the Monte Carlo. She's wearing her black leather jacket now as she needs something a little warmer than her fleece jacket from earlier. After a few tries, the Monte sputters to life and she gives it a few revs before the video ends. view more.

So, I guess you could say this is a little mini-series that starts at the end of filming custom #1263, which was a cranking video in the old bus. So the custom ends with her driving away after getting the bus started but that's not the end of the story. Last June, I posted what really happened after the custom fades out. You can see that update here of her trying to get the bus unstuck in her knee high hiking boots. Fast forward to this update; which is after Jane's failed attempt to get the bus unstuck once -- so she changed into another outfit and is giving it another go. She's wearing a tank top, jeans and a pair of Puma sneakers. It's not looking too good as that front wheel is sinking further into the soft ground and the rear wheels can't get enough traction. view more.

She fires up and drives the old 1972 Super Beetle from where it was stored to HQ. She's wearing a white button-up blouse, tight denim jeans, pantyhose and a pair of sexy beige stiletto sandals. Her red toenail polish is noticeable through the pantyhose. She has no problems working the modern-day theft deterrent system (aka - clutch) in these tall heels. She finishes the video with a good revving session. view more.

These were some in-between and after filming custom #1000 here. It starts out with her strutting up to the old Coronet parked on the side of the road and telling you she's going to get it started ...except you can't get it started with a dead battery. Doh! Gotta love the sass and humor from this gal! Ok, so the battery is changed and it fires right up, time to romp on it! She gives it some good revving while I close the hood, gather the gear and get ready to head back to HQ. view more.

**Typed the wrong description initially for this clip, revised description is below.** Vivian does a round of cold starts in the Jeep & Camaro. The video starts out with her revving then driving the Monte Carlo a short distance. She's wearing a brown leather jacket, black leggings and shiny brown leather cowgirl boots. view more.

"To the house, Jeeves." is how the video starts off. Not sure she liked being called that but, what can she do about it? I'm the director and with that comes the privilege of getting to wear a funny hat and call people names. That's how it works, right? lol Just before she turns onto the road, I remind her to not drive like a grandma because if you're familiar with Tinsley's driving in the past, she can be a little frumpy. But she does better in this clip and opens it up a little on these twisting and winding back-roads. Her long, bare legs stretched out to the pedals and a pair of black flip-flops on her feet. view more.

Jane gives Jewels a little 'How-to' on a fun and incognito way of stalling the Camaro out and making it hard to start. The 2-foot method is used for all sorts of things and this is one of the ways that it's not normally used outside of wanting to do some pedal pumping. Jewels is wearing a pair of tall gold-glitter round toe pumps and Jane is wearing some black, thin-strap stiletto sandals. Both girl are wearing tight jeans. Jane gets behind the wheel first and the lesson begins. view more.

I believe this is the first time Cheyenne got to give the old Volvo a little pumping action. Her Aunt Cassandra is filming from the passenger seat and also providing a little coaching. Cheyenne finds out pretty quickly how frustrating that old Volvo can be. It starts up after a handful of tries and she thinks that's all there is to it until it chugs and stalls. Then she gets to meet the real Volvo -- that cranky, coughing, sputtering, stalling, shaky and annoying Volvo. Good times! There are also some scenes mixed in from me filming them outside the car getting the drivers side and the tailpipe as it shakes during the cranking. A bit of a 'creeper cam' feel to it. view more.

So what started as a 'start the Bug right quick' turned into a 17+ minute clip of Riley struggling with the Bug for a looong time and then not-so-long with the Camaro before it's battery died. Poor girls left leg and foot were getting a workout. But she never asked for a break, she kept right on pumping the whole time. So hardcore! lol Cranking and sputtering in the old little Bug that is super flooded. But when she does get it started, she let's it idle while she goes to start the Camaro but it's weak battery from the bad starter doesn't last too long. view more.

A damp, chilly day is a good day to see which cars will start. This clip is her starting up the Jeep, Camaro and then the Volvo in these skin tight holographic leggings and white leather with black stripes Adidas sneakers. The Jeep & Camaro are a success, eventually; the Volvo ends up being a failed start due to draining the battery. view more.

That old Chevy Laguna of hers is a hot car to take out but it's a biiiitch to deal with. Must take after -- so yeah, she has to get the battery charger connected before getting behind the wheel and seeing if the old beast will fire up. The struggle is very real today! She's wearing an all black outfit that consists of a black leather mini-skirt, black thigh-high stocks and black strappy stiletto sandals. view more.

Leaving the store in grandpa's old truck she borrowed, Vivian hops in with her friend Jane sliding in and sitting right next to Vivian. The camera is mounted looking down their chests and their thighs -- a view that you'd never be able to get riding along with them. Vivian leans forward to turn the key that is mounted on the front of the dash instead of on the steering column. It takes a few tries to get going and she revs it up some before putting it in gear and driving off. They make some other stops before finally heading to the park to go for a little walk. The camera is held by Jane for some of it and then it's mounted to the passenger side window. Mostly body shots with a few feet shots mixed in. A couple of startups in this clip. view more.

Damn, I miss that little Renault. Was such a great car for this but it was an absolute unicorn when it came to finding parts for it -- next to non-existent. I can't tell you how many parts manufacturers I called to try and track down parts that were needed. I don't mean parts stores, I mean, actual part factories. It's hard to find out who actually makes some items because they sell to wholesaler X who sales to distributor Y who then contracts for parts store Z. I remember calling a window regulator production company and sent them images and measurements of the passenger side window regulator to see if anything was close or could be modified/made to fit. No dice. He asked what car was it for and I told him and he just replied, "A what?" Lol! That's never a good sign that you're going to get what you need. Anyways, this clip is Cassandra cranking Pepe le Peu (Pew? Peau? Pheau?) and then revving it up when it finally starts. Some tailpipe shots of the exhaust smoke and gauge shots of the tach needle bouncing around. Also, I think this might be the last Renault clip with Cassandra. view more.

"Where's the receipt?" she asks of you sternly. "Oops." is the only reply you can come up with and that doesn't really smooth things over with her. She gets out of the car and walks to the gas pump to get the receipt herself. She gets back in to start the car to leave but it takes a few tries to get it going. She kicks her hot pink pumps off after the first try because it's easier to pump the Coronet's gas pedal without heels. She revs it a few times, puts it in gear then starts to head out of the parking lot. She gets to the main road and the car stalls on her. I guess it worked for the better since some jackass blocks the entrance. She berates him while trying to get the car started again. view more.

She's taking the land barge out for another joy ride today. The fun thing about the Cadillac being the heavy beast it is -- you can hold the pedal down when flooring it because it takes a little while to get up to speed. She gets the fired up and as she's warming it up with some mild revving at first, she rubs her thighs and boots. "I got some new boots in Caddy Daddy. Do you like them?" as she hits that big floor-mounted gas pedal a few more times. She hits the road and floors the pedal as often as she can. She props her left boot up on the dash while driving for a bit. When she gets back home, she gives it a good revving and leans waaay out to try and see some of that exhaust she's spitting out of the tailpipe. view more.

She finally finds her way back to the old car she saw for sale on the side of the road and pulls in to check it out. The owner comes out and shows her the car. Vivian sits inside. She tried to get him to let her fire it up, no dice. Since she can't play in it, no sense in staying around. We get back into the BMW and she drives around some more, mixing in a good bit of revving while coasting. view more.

She's got this cute yellow dress with white polka-dots on with a pair of flat gold thong sandals. We're over where we parked the cars to grab the old Monte Carlo. An easy old start that on took a few pumps for the car to fire up. She's trying to back it up out of this tight yard we had most of the cars parked in. She reverses up the driveway and gets the car turned around and then gets on the road. Her pink toenails and gold sandals glisten in the sun as she presses down on the pedal to open her up a little but the engine coughs and stumbles a little. She lets up on the gas then slowly rolls into it again. She goes down, turns around again and this time when she rolls into the throttle, the car responds much better now...that's more like it! view more.

It's cold and Vivian is running late. She gets in the Bus and is on the phone with a co-worker, explaining her issues. When she tells her co-worker she's trying to take the bus, the co-working thought Vivian meant the public transportation bus and not Vivian's old VW Bus. Vivian spins the engine over the first time and you can hear the weak battery from the temps getting so low the night before. It cranks over slow and she's pumping fast on the gas to get some fuel up into the carb. She hangs up the phone after a few failed attempts and devotes all her attention to getting it started before the battery dies. When she gets it to fire up, she revs it up mildly to keep it from dying. All is going well, the engine is getting heated up and she might can leave soon but the Bus engine starts to stutter when she hits the gas pedal and she quickly start stabbing it get it to clear out but it stalls. A few more cranks -- uh oh, the battery ain't sounding good... view more.

These are the behind-the-scenes and things from custom 1166, where she was cranking the old Monte Carlo in this itty bitty skirt, black sheer hose and sexy strappy stiletto heels. The video starts with her in the car while it's parked in our garage and she starts it up. She revs it while I finish tinkering with some cameras, which you can see via the picture-in-picture mode. Once that's situated, I get back in the passenger seat and, after a little bantering, she gets the car into reverse and attempts to park it where I want it for the video. However, it proves to be a little difficult since a) she's already forgotten which way she's going and b) she keeps spinning the wheels trying to reverse up the gravel incline. After 3 failed attempts she basically just says 'fuck it' and "I'm just gonna gun it." with that no-fucks-given look on her face. Finally, she gets it where it needs to be! She does a little more revving right after the car stutters and almost dies but she was quick on feathering it and keeps it running. She kills the car, starts pumping on the gas and thus ends the clip. view more.

She's running some errands for me today. I've got a 5-gallon bucket of used engine oil I need recycled. so she loads it up to take it to the auto shop to get it disposed of. She mounts the camera to the passenger side and you're treated a nice old start from the Volvo. The long gear shifter shakes each time she cranks it and the more the car sputters, the faster it shakes. It takes a few tries to get it started and she lightly revs it when it's running. She buckles up, revs it a little harder and feels comfortable that it's ready to go. She kicks off the sandals and drives with her bare feet for a few minutes before getting there. She drives across town to the store, parks and heads in. Unfortunately, because there was too much gas in the oil (gee, I wonder why?! lol), they wouldn't accept it. The guy helps her haul the buckets back to the Volvo and she heads back home. view more.
