Photo Contest: Modern Bikes to Vintage Cars



Above: Elena Zaika sent us a couple pictures of her Suzukis. The first one shows Elena on her Suzuki SV650, which was destroyed right outside her building while she was away at work. Elena lives in New York City. But she loved the way her SV650 handled as well as how light it was, so her replacement bike is — you guessed right — a new Suzuki SV650.



Above: Nicholas Ellis of Oxford, Connecticut sent us these photos taken at a pig roast mud bog. The truck is a 1998 Dodge Ram 1500 5.2L V8 with a 317. Other upgrades include an aFe intake, full Gibson exhaust system, and free-spin hubs for the front axle. Lift kit is a Rough Country 7" with a 3" body lift. Future plans include new 8-lug axles. Nick has done quite a bit of mud bogging with his Dodge truck, and has also won a few contests with it.


Above: James Douglas's 1968 Mercury Cougar. According to James, this is his "Summer toy" for going to car events. He's owned the car for 15 years and does all the work himself. The Cougar has all new drive train, a 5.0L H.O. (302), a 5-speed tranny, but James admits the car's still a work in progress. Quebec, Canada.



Above: Carl Hockett's 1969 Fiat 850 Coupe. Santa Rosa, California.


Above: This 20k-mile 1980 Yamaha XS1100SG is owned by Dennis Rhodes. Maple Falls, Washington.



Above: Janice and David Bruce have owned their 1931 Ford Model A for about 14 years. Loganville, Georgia.
