Picture of the Week: Mazda T2000 kaido racer
Not everything seems to be what it is and this Mazda T2000 kaido racer is one of them:
I know: it is a photoshop, but I must say it is a very well done one! All the batlike wings and intakes really suits the 50s styling of the T2000.
For those unfamiliar with the Mazda T1500/2000: in the early 30s Mazda started producing the Mazdago, a tricycle based upon a motorcycle. After the second world war it got grew up to the size of a large truck, especially with the introduction of the long wheelbase capable of carrying the displayed short wheelbase as a whole!

Photoshops always make your dreams come true: I always wondered what a modified Civic Type-R would look like… And this is it:
Okay the end result is not 100% realistic, but at least the hoodfins, oil cooler and blistered fender flares should be realistic enough? 😉

Time for some bosozoku style artwork!
I found some kaido racer photoshops on Oyakata’s Garage between a lot of VIP and drift style photoshops and I’ve picked the best ones for you:
Kaido racer photoshop: Nissan Laurel Butaketsu C130
This pigsbutt Laurel was mildly tuned with some new rims, a spoiler and some tail-light swap.
Not over the top as this Nissan Fairlady S30:
Kaido racer photoshop: Nissan Fairlady Z S30
A complete overhaul except for the roofline!
And what about this roofchopped Mark II?
Kaido racer photoshop: Toyota Mark II GX71
Wicked in yellow and green!

We received some great bosozoku style inspired artwork by Gee Halen (Gábor Vajda) and Gunwoo! Gee Halen’s artwork is more scetchy and Gunwoo’s sent us some almost real photoshops!
Gunwoo’s artwork:
Bosozoku style artwork: Gunwoo’s sharknosed Evo 7
I always wondered what a modern zokusha would look like… I guess this Evo 7 photoshop reflects that perfectly!
More artwork after the jump!

Bosozoku style artwork: Gunwoo’s BMW E30 zokusha
As you can see: the E30 is actually a perfect base for a zokusha! It is boxy, it is eighties, its able to cope with wide fenders and wheels and its got enough oomph to do donuts with! 🙂

Bosozoku style artwork: Gee Halen on the Japanese Rat Fink
The JDM Rat Fink is a clear view on the way Robin modified his N13 from Rat to zokusha. 🙂
Thanks guys for sharing these beautiful pieces of art! 🙂
