Kool Fellas, Ltd. Review in Ol´Skool Rodz (USA)


Alan Mayes, Editor in Chief of the popular Hot Rod Magazine Ol´Skool Rodz from USA was kind enough to write a review about my latest book Kool Fellas, Ltd. and send it before it will be published in the next issue out in April 2011. Here we go:

Kool Fellas, Ltd. – Photography by Dirk Behlau
Dirk Behlau is one of those rare photographers who is able to take photos of people you've never met and make them seem familiar, friends almost. His photographs of vehicles make you want to reach out and turn the key. His new book, Kool Fellas. Ltd., continues that pattern.

It’s safe to say that Dirk is one of the top two or three kustom kulture photographers in Europe. He understands the subjects – hot rods, custom cars, stripped down motorcycles, pinup and burlesque girls - and the men and women who live the lifestyle every day. That is obvious from his photography. It is gritty and raw, like his subjects, never polished or pretentious. He’s not a photographer trying to figure something out. He has it figured out because this is his life, too. Dirk just relays what he sees from the inside. This book could be sub-titled “A Day in the Life of Dirk.”

Shot in the USA as well as in Europe, Kool Fellas, Ltd. is a feast for the eyes, a great coffee table book for the casual observer or a pictorial textbook for the student of kustom kulture. Simply, slowly studying the photos will tell you much about this kulture. Except for the noise and the smell of oil and gasoline, it’s all there in the book.

AccuAir on James Hetfield's (Metallica) 1952 Olds


"Rick Dore has been in the custom car building game for well over two decades. Rick started using Air Bags in their infancy and is no stranger to the problems that were typical before AccuAir raised the standard. When James Hetfield (lead singer for Metallica) approached Rick Dore about making his daily driven 1952 Olds more reliable, Rick immediately called upon AccuAir Suspension to get the job done right."

Revenge of Volkom - Teaser


Planet Volkom is an intergalactic mishap. Ruled by the steak eating Volkomians known for their fierce appetite. Even in the early stages of Planet Volkom the Volkomians rid the planet entirely from all eatable beast. Through generations the Volkomians have been forced to settle with vegetarian food. This have turned them in to a sick twisted race of warriors and mad scientists, that only have mind for getting their hands on new steaks...and lots and lots of them. Rumor has it that they have mastered spacecraft, and is now terrorizing the universe in search of steaks.
