3min30sec In the last part of this series, my battery is barely turing the car over. Even with the pedal pushed to the floor the engine is not starting for me. Eventually, all that I hear is that dreaded clicking sound. I killed the battery.

3min9sec In the 2nd part of this series, my Dodge engine is acting up and you sit back there watching me struggle. I guess the rainy weather is giving my engine trouble.

3min38sec In part 1 of this short series, the cameraman has some fun with some camera experimentation. He has been working on some new spy cam stall stuff, and I think this is definitly a unique angle. The rain is falling outside, you hop in the backseat, my dodge is of course grumpy as usual, but we get going after a little struggle...

3min45sec In the 10th part I am getting more nervous. I am sure that my battery is getting weaker. But the scary thing is that stalker in the woods in definitely not leaving.

3min1sec In part 9 my stalker in the woods just keeps staring at me as I struggle to get this old engine started. I think he likes watching me.

Model: Nicole

3min40sec In the 8th part of this series, the suburu is sounding like it may never start again. But I will keep trying, plus I know that guy that is watching is going to eventually come over here, so I have to get it started.

Model: Nicole

3min46sec In part 7 my Suburu is sounding very sick. I smell gasoline and it is just not starting at all. I think that guy that is watching is coming closer too.

Model: Nicole

3min1sec In part 6 I am still cranking away at this sputtering flooded old suburu. I am being stalked by some creep in the woods...

Posted: 09/08/2008

Model: Nicole

3min55sec In part 5 I hear the engine starting to sound worse, and that guy is still spying on me from the nearby trees. Will it ever start?

Posted: 09/07/2008

Model: Nicole

4min5sec In part 4 the engine sputters and teases but is not willing to restart. In the mean time, someone is spying on me from the nearby woods, I think it was that person who gave me directions.

Model: Nicole

4min1sec-Part 3 and now I sit in the middle of the some wooded remote location, and my suburu has quit on me and will not restart. Plus, I see someone spying on me...is it that same person who gave me directions?

Posted: 09/05/2008

Model: Nicole

5min25sec Oh no...in part 2 I have stopped and found some creepy dude to get some directions from, he was helpful, but way too curious about how poor my car was running. Anyway, I get to the remote land site very late in the day and get some quick pictures before it gets too dark. I know my outfit is lame, but remember it was my day off so I just through on some baggy sweats and my bass flip flops...In the background as I am taking my pictures the old engine slowly sputters sounding worse by the minute, I hear it starting to quit and make a run for the car to try to catch it before it quits. I do not quite make it!

4min7sec This is a semi-scary series of me in the Suburu. I am a Secretary of a big shot real estate developer. He calls me on my day off, to drive my unreliable car, into the middle of nowhere to get some late afternoon digital pictures of some land he wants to develop. I am talking backwoods, creepy people in the woods stuff. I need the job so off I go, in my sputtering suburu. Worst of all, I am bad with maps and directions. In this clip, I hold the key for about 30 seconds before the car starts, should have taken that as a sign. But the rest is me driving further and further into the woods, and getting more and more lost. Notice how the car has almost no power, I mean when I floor it almost nothing happens!

3min The last part of this series continues from the end of the last clip. AS the boss, you have asked me to take us to lunch in my clunker, it is not starting and you watch me apoligize as the battery gets weaker and weaker. I fail to ever get it started, I am sorry.

Posted: 09/02/2008

Model: Nicole

3min20sec In part 3, my Pontiac is deciding to embarrass me in front of you. But you just sit quietly, as I explain how sorry I am about my car not starting.

Posted: 09/01/2008

Model: Nicole

3min15sec In part 2, you as my boss have insisted that I drive us to lunch. You are sitting there watching me as I struggle to get the engine to catch. I am holding the pedal to the floor, that is not working, although, at times the car almost starts. Why do you want me to drive?

Posted: 08/29/2008

Model: Nicole

3min3sec In the first part of this series, you(the boss) have once again asked that I drive us to lunch. I do not get it, you know how my car is always giving me trouble, but you insist, even though you have a really nice car. So we get into my unreliable Pontiac, and my blue pumps start pumping and holding the pedal, and my embarrassing engine is trying so hard to start.

Posted: 08/27/2008

Model: Nicole

5min9sec-This is it our last chance, to get this thing started. You are sitting there listening to the battery weaken as I try my hardest to start the old engine. It is looking awful for me, you do not mind at all, but I am so worried.

Posted: 08/25/2008

Model: Nicole

3min20sec-In part 4 the engine sputters and coughs but just will not start. I am telling you as you sit in the back seat that I will get it started. But you quietly sit back there glad to see me stalled out.

Posted: 08/23/2008

Model: Nicole

3min22sec Oh no...in part 3 my car is just getting so flooded. When I pump the pedal and then hold it down it wants to start, but just coughs and sputters and then stalls. I am telling you to stay calm, I know I can do it.(in the clip)

Posted: 08/21/2008

Model: Nicole

4min1sec In part 2 of this series, you are quietly watching as the woman in charge cannot get the car started. I keep telling you that it is going to be okay, but you, deep down could not be more pleased with my situation. I keep trying and it keeps stalling and sputtering.

Posted: 08/19/2008

Model: Nicole

3min3sec Part 1 So now we have gone over to the cougar, you hop in and I talk to you about staying calm while I try to get this car started. This is a continuation from the last series, where I could not get my comet to go. Now, I am filling the car with more gasoline fumes as the cougar is sputtering and trying to catch but I am not getting it to go. Uh oh!

Posted: 08/17/2008

Model: Nicole

5min51sec In the last part I am not able to get you there. I try until the battery is. I guess we will try another car.

3min10sec Part 1 of a little series I shot myself, the lighting is not perfect, but the cameraman has shown me how to improve from here. Anyway, I make these little fantasy clips for him sometimes. It is also fitting with a number of requests over the years. The fantasy of a neighbor, or nanny, maybe a babysitter, who knows, but she is trying to get her car started because you need to be dropped off. So you hop in, and of course I tell you not to worry, even though I am clearly having car trouble.

Posted: 08/13/2008

Model: Nicole

2min50sec The last part of this series, ends with it coming so close to starting, with some sputtering and stalling. But in the end as the thunderstorm approaches my battery gets weaker and weaker until, I hear the dreaded click...click...

Posted: 08/11/2008

Model: Nicole

3min10sec Part 3 more thunder, is forcing me to hurry and start my flooded old buick. But I am just not getting it. Even when I pump and hold the pedal, it seems to work better the more I pump it.

Posted: 08/09/2008

Model: Nicole

3min24sec A little more from the cameraman catches me in before a thunderstorm buick series. He loves it when there is some drama for me. The old engine almost stays running in this clip. But it is just running so poorly that it stalls again.

Posted: 08/07/2008

Model: Nicole

3min10sec This is a special little clip from the cameraman of me in the buick. I posted a little from this series a while ago. This takes place after the cameraman waited a while allowing me to feel some panic with a thunderstorm coming. Anyway, this is a cute little special series the cameraman had for himself. The buick starts again to start this series, but dies when I back out. Which it did in the previous one, it is just a little darker. With some bad weather not to far off.

3min50sec In the last part of this series, my battery gets weaker and weaker until it just dies. Not a good feeling in the middle of the night.

Posted: 08/03/2008

Model: Nicole

3min15sec Part 2 and the Pontiac has left us stranded in the middle of the night. It is soooo close to starting but it just will not go.

Posted: 08/01/2008

Model: Nicole

3min10sec This is a fun series that is scary for me. My biggest fears are being lost and breaking down, or stalling out at night. Posting nighttime clips can be real tough. But the cameraman has some real surprises around the corner. This series is from an outake test after I told him that while he was out of town I had been unable to start the pontiac. He explained to me what to do with one of the cameras that can shoot in complete darkness and asked if I would tape the video myself so he could have the thrill of seeing it when he came home. So with the help of a friend, I taped it myself, and although it is not perfect camera work it does show that the cameraman has found a really great nightime camera that is great for hidden material. This is me really trying to start the car, and telling the neighbor, who also tapes much of it for me, that it will start, but I am obviously nervous about the whole thing. We are about to launch a really different era here. This clip shows the car catching for me, with some hard REVVING that only lasts for a minute before the darn pontiac STALLS again. It then just keeps conking out and flooding as I crank the old pontiac.

4min54sec In the last part of this clip the weak battery requests will certainly get their fill. My Car is so sluggishly turning over it sounds like it will never ever start. Although, it comes real close, then completely dies.

Posted: 07/29/2008

Model: Nicole

3min9sec Part 6 and the battery is slowly cranking my engine over, but it stays flooded. I may never get the car to start.

Posted: 07/27/2008

Model: Nicole

4min Part 5 leaves me baffled, the car is still not starting after like 15minutes. My patience is running short, please start.

Posted: 07/25/2008

Model: Nicole

3min15sec In part4 the old suburu is just not starting. Now it is normal for me to struggle every morning when i try to get my cars to go. But this morning is going really bad, this is the second car that will not start.

Posted: 07/23/2008

Model: Nicole

3min3sec Part 3 I think my oldde engine is already wearing the battery down. This suburu needs to start...what is wrong?

Posted: 07/21/2008

Model: Nicole

3min13sec Part 2 continues with my suburu engine sputtering and coughing as it cranks but does not catch. How can I flood this car so quickly?

Posted: 07/19/2008

Model: Nicole

3min32sec Here is the first clip to go with a variety of series coming up. I guess best described as spycam series. A few members have suggested spying on me as I leave for work or what have you, and this series has two cameras hidden outside the car from windows, and one inside the car. (thank the camerman for all of his work) The clip starts with you hearing my Pontiac dying in the background. So, I switch to the suburu which has been neglected. I am really late and need to get going. Now the suburu will not start, as you watch from two windows and one on my toes.

Model: Nicole

2min54sec This clip is the last of this series, and it shows that the cougar has a major problem. It is not restarting no matter what. It is doing that almost catching sound as the battery starts to weaken, but it is not going to start again. I must have flooded it or something.

Model: Nicole

3min43sec In this part the 8th of this series, I am doing some highway driving, including one very fast floored up to 65mph accelerating. Eventually the engine starts to run hot again, so I find a cute looking town to stop and rest in, but my car dies as soon as I leave the highway, not good, I am in the middle of some wooded new complex, with no gas station in sight.

Posted: 07/13/2008

Model: Nicole

3min45sec Finally, in part 4 I am off working my way back to the main hghway. This is a slow driving clip on a two lane road back to the highway, braking, easy driving around 40mph. The car is still sounding a little sick, with a few backfires down a hill. The next clip will have more acceleration and higher highway speeds.

Posted: 07/11/2008

Model: Nicole

3min21sec In part 6 I struggle with my cranky engine until it finally catches again, and it sputters and coughs smoke as I stab at the pedal to rev and clear it out. Hopefully I can finally hit the highway again.

Posted: 07/09/2008

Model: Nicole

3min18sec Oh my gosh...in part 5 I am still pumping and holding the pedal blocking the exit as my old cougar will not start. Sooner or later someone is going to get mad at me, it is a one lane one way exit. Come on start!

Posted: 07/07/2008

Model: Nicole

4min2sec Finally, in part 4 I start to drive towards the exit, the engine keeps stalling, but I get it going, until it dies at the exit. I think the engine needs a tune-up or something must be wrong, I don't know.

Posted: 07/05/2008

Model: Nicole

3min10sec So in part 3 with some fast pump and hold combinations I get the cougar to sputter and start. With that I back out. Hopefully the car will not start to overheat and die on me again.

Posted: 07/03/2008

Model: Nicole

3min10sec In part 2 after about 30 minutes break I return to the car, which smells like a hot musty gasoline guzzler. Only to have the dreaded dash lights flash at me as I am unable to get the hot engine to start again.

Model: Nicole

4min50sec In the first part of this 4th of July series, I have taken the (very out of tune) cougar on a road trip. It does not want to idle and is constantly sputtering and dying. Especially when it starts to run too hot or overheat. So when driving in the mountains, or desert I have to stop at rest areas or other locations to let it rest, and then hope that it starts again. In clip one, I am casually driving up very steep and high mountains and the car is acting funny, so I make one of many stops to let the old car take a break. Of course it briefly stalls before I even get to the parking lot, but I do get it there eventually. I am wearing retro clothes and glasses because the cameraman has many childhood memories that match my real life car dramas now.
