Well this week\\u2019s classic is so cute, I\\u2019m gonna call it that! This week\\u2019s Pinup Pole Show Pinup of the Week features me, Tonya Kay, posing with one of my personal favorite vehicles, Daniel Cook\\u2019s 1929 Ford Model A, TWEETY \\u0026#8211; a car so good looking, I\\u2019m pretty sure we\\u2019d all pin it up in our shoppes. Let\\u0026#8217;s talk to this week\\u2019s classic car owner, Daniel Cook of Voodoo Disciples cc:\\n\\nTONYA KAY: What city do you live in and what do you do for a living?\\n\\nDANIEL: I live in North Hollywood and work at Universal Studios NBC Studio Post as a tape operator. I don\\u2019t really dub to tape anymore these days; I put foreign subtitles and foreign audio, HDR SDR archival files, that kind of stuff, for features. I also make Air files for NBC television shows that get broadcasted from the network. I live less then 10 minutes from work so it\\u2019s a great commute. I try to drive Tweety to work every Friday and park her right in front of my building, which is along the tram route. I often wonder how many pictures of Tweety have been taken from the tram\\u0026#8230;\\n\\nTONYA KAY: What was your first car?\\n\\nDANIEL: My first car was a \\u0026#8217;77 Ford Fairmont. It was Tennis White with a tan vinyl top and Tan interior. I had it for two months; then I got a \\u0026#8217;67 Ford Mustang Fastback.\\n\\nTONYA KAY: How did Tweety come into your world?\\n\\nDANIEL: Tweety came into my life about five years ago when I was in Oklahoma for my grandfather\\u2019s funeral. My uncle and grandpa actually built Tweety in \\u0026#8217;92 to help keep my grandpa\\u0026#8217;s spirits up after my grandma died. Tweety was just sitting in my uncle\\u0026#8217;s garage. She was parked next to a couple barn find 50\\u2019s Ford Victoria Crestlines and my aunt\\u0026#8217;s Thunderbird. I really hadn\\u2019t seen my uncle since I was a little little kid; none of my cousins had the inkling to pick up a wrench, so when I offered to give him a hand bleeding the brakes on my aunt\\u0026#8217;s T-bird we hit it off. He started talking about putting Tweety on eBay motors to see what he could get for her. I said, \\u0026#8220;No, I\\u2019ll take it off your hands!\\u0026#8221; By the time we had the brakes done he said, \\u201cYa know what Daniel? The yellow is going to look mighty fine in the California sunshine.\\u0026#8221; A year later, it was in California.\\n\\nTONYA KAY: What other classics have you owned?\\n\\nDANIEL: Other classics I have owned or own\\u0026#8230; I had a badass 1967 Ford Mustang Fastback when I was 19. I took Julia to her senior prom it. It was \\u201cdiamond white pearl\\u201d with styled steel wheels and a 3 speed manual transmission, 289 small block sleeper with Melling torquer cam, black camera case interior. I ended up selling it about six months before the Angelina Jolie Nicholas Cage remake of \\u0026#8216;Gone in 60 Seconds\\u0026#8217; and I\\u2019m still kicking my own ass for selling it. A couple years ago I bought two Ford U.K. Thames \\u0026#8211; a 1948 in parts and 1959 that at least had wheels and an engine. I\\u2019ve been slowly getting parts for the \\u0026#8217;48. The \\u0026#8217;59, I\\u2019ve been redoing everything that was done wrong. I\\u2019ve redone the brakes, fuel lines, rewired it\\u0026#8230; it had an electrical short which literally took a month to track down. I took it for a test drive the other day and it started pouring oil out from oil sender to the pressure gauge. So I\\u2019ve got to fix that and hit it with the timing gun again, and then I think it\\u2019s ready to start driving around. People don\\u2019t know what they are seeing when the \\u0026#8217;59 Thames rolls down the street; with a Chevy 350 and being short piped, it\\u0026#8217;s loud and so unique looking. It\\u2019s so small it\\u2019s like driving a go kart.\\n\\nPhotography featuring model and column writer Tonya Kay, wearing a cute yellow polkadot bikini by Red Dolly Swimwear, posing with Daniel Cook\\u2019s 1929 Ford Model A TWEETY (of Voodoo Disciples cc), at Damian\\u2019s Auto Repair garage, photographed by Tim Hunter Photography, produced by Tonya Kay for Tonya Kay\\u2019s Pinup Pole Show.&quot;,&quot;itemprop&quot;:&quot;image&quot;},{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/www.racingjunk.com\\\/news\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2018\\\/12\\\/PinupPoleShowTonyaKayTimHunter_5480small-min.jpg&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;58100&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Pinup Pole Show Pinup of the Week: Tonya Kay with Tweety 1&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Pinup Pole Show Pinup of the Week: Tonya Kay with Tweety&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;itemprop&quot;:&quot;image&quot;},{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/www.racingjunk.com\\\/news\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2018\\\/12\\\/PinupPoleShowTonyaKayTimHunter_5493small-min.jpg&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;58102&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Pinup Pole Show Pinup of the Week: Tonya Kay with Tweety 2&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Pinup Pole Show Pinup of the Week: Tonya Kay with Tweety&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;itemprop&quot;:&quot;image&quot;},{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/www.racingjunk.com\\\/news\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2018\\\/12\\\/PinupPoleShowTonyaKayTimHunter_5485small-min.jpg&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;58101&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Pinup Pole Show Pinup of the Week: Tonya Kay with Tweety 3&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Pinup Pole Show Pinup of the Week: Tonya Kay with Tweety&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;itemprop&quot;:&quot;image&quot;}]\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageGallery\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Can a car be a pinup?
