The Scion Gallery on Helms Ave, Culver City. Not to be mistaken for the Helms Bakery off Venice. Different spot. Both hip, in their own respect.
As a pre-SEMA show, Scion displayed a few of it’s project cars at the Scion Gallery. Scion really has a good sense of whats good. The Kogi truck has popped up at a few of their events, plus the venue being their own art gallery, and inviting some really fine folks to check out the latest builds.
Gotta love a Scion Xd – turned mobile Kogi truck. Suede seats? “I noticed that you’re a gangsta…I’m pretty gangsta myself” – Gangsta approved.
Cartel Racing’s Scion Tc – on 22′s with an insane motorized trunk that contains a clean speaker setup.
The scene outside by the Kogi truck. Was able to test out more than just the amazing short rib tacos – that I’ve come to love. Smashed some kimchi quesadillas and some short rib sliders. Verdict = you can’t go wrong with any Kogi menu item.
This piece in the Scion gallery really caught my attention. The strands of yarn are tied in the middle and connect on both ends to square mirrors. The gallery was a fitting backdrop for beuatifully designed SEMA show cars.
Nice work Scion! Can’t wait to see all of the cars at SEMA 2009.
Parting shot, good friends: left to right, Joey Redmond, Jason Small, and Peter Tarach.
