Hot Rod Adventures: No Brakes!

There have been many requests for this and it’s been a LONG time coming…

If you’ve been reading Grease Girl for awhile, you know how much I love the “adventures” Stude gets me into – so when it came to retelling my brake loss story with reenactment pictures, I couldn’t think of a better way to do it then by creating a comic strip. After all, the story is quite comic (although it certainly wasn’t funny when it happened!) So without further ado… click here to continue to the comic strip…

Introducing Project Pepe’

puegeot103_projectPepe

I couldn’t be happier about a tiny, two-wheeled project that recently found its way into my garage. For years I’ve dreamt of exploring the open road on two wheels – with life and other garage projects taking up time and money, there just hasn’t yet been space to think of pursuing my two-wheeled dream. Which is part of the reason why I’m so thrilled that this 1977 Peugeot 103 Moped just fell into my lap!

Carted home by my husband via a friend-of-a-friend, this little 49cc little-sister-to-a-real-bike needs some tender loving care after sitting for years. Click here to see more of Project Pepe’!




Welcome to Grease Girl!

I'm not what you would call your normal grease monkey. I prefer to keep my cuticles trimmed and fingernails red. But when I started driving my 1955 Studebaker Champion I had to get a little greasy! Seeing as I'm more or less new to all this, this blog will be the place to learn along with me. Check back often to see what adventure I'm on next...it'll be fun!
