LZ Fest last year was a real eye-opener; we live in a bubble at the shed and rarely make it our thing to go to car events. The Drift games lads had organised LZ fest; it was the first time we had seen such a crowd. It shows how times have changed, and social media characters bring more of an experience than the usual drivers and professional car people.

Our weekend started with a bit of proper misery, with Josh blowing his gearbox at 5.40 in the morning after spending all his time getting the car ready for the event. Either way, LZ Fest was a real eye-opener; it made us realise what sort of following Juicebox has, putting faces to YouTube views and comments.

It’s become an annual thing for us to throw cars and coffee, it’s basically a no-strings-attached free car show and if the weather lines up it turns out to be an incredible day. Here are a few photos from last year’s gathering, somehow we got lucky with the weather.

Night Drives, The Juicebox BBQ and AE86 festival. Car Life is a good life, and the culture still thrives here in Ireland.

The AE86 Trueno gets the doors and wings primed, and it’s all one colour. I’ve waited years for this!

Some photos from the ultimate distraction night, when we got a call to see some action with an NZ-imported Corona on Star Sharks. This was happening near the shed, so we couldn’t resist the offer.

Here are a few overdue photos from the first few days we took the 86 up to its new home, where the car still lives, as we begin to wrap up the paint process. This was a scenario I had anticipated since the start of the build, and honestly, I almost felt like this moment would never come. The car had a few lull periods, and I was worried it would never pull out of it. It sat as a bare shell for a little too long, and then we had a string of events that set things back. Thankfully, things came together at the start of 2022, and the progress car ramped up. It finally felt like we were on the home stretch.

I’ve wanted to shoot this car for years, and we grabbed a quick chance to take some proper up-close photos on our visit to Paul Keenan and friends some time ago. Ever since this car popped up for sale years ago on Yahoo auctions, and then landed in the UK and finally into the hands of Paul, I was always invested in and loved the character this 81 has.

It would have been rude not to pull this out of the lad’s shed for a close-up, the killer with the trip to Paul and friends is the fact they had so many good-looking cars. I could have spent the week up there shooting everything. Regardless, I loved everything about this ek4, the colour, the OEM bits the wheels, everything worked perfectly. Enjoy these few up-close photos from that day of a very well-executed EK4 Civic SIR.

A dive into our adventure to LZ Fest last year with early morning blown gearboxes.

In the quest for AE86 perfection, Jackie spends insane hours straightening the bodywork.

We unearth a hidden K20 Honda-powered Cortina build and grab a bargain 4A-GE 20valve

A massive moment for the AE86 build, the first coat of primer is applied to the Trueno!

We organise cars and coffee, check out an ITB Altezza and do some rings in a 4A-GE Daihatsu

Another incredible shed tour, a hidden stash of Nissan Silvia parts and much more.

We strip away 36 years of paint on the AE86. This is a long time coming!
