World colliding man. Worlds colliding. The Chi-town native, actress and environmentalist will gladly sell you this factory diesel bio-conversion, along with the "fueling station" (read: storage drum and filter) and a guide to finding biodiesel in your area. WANT! It goes on sale later this month, but no price yet. Oh, and she's also selling a biod "ranch biobeast" for the low price of $14,999. Full pics and spelling error-filled details below (we're not hating, in fact we think her spelling matte black "matt black" is a sign she secretly likes us):

<![CDATA[Bio-Diesel Baja! Veggie Monsters Aim for Run in Baja 1000]]>

We just got a tip from our guy Skiny (above), idea man and Audi Avant road-rallyist. His latest project involves a ragtag group of diesel engineers, celebrities and related cohorts. Their mission is to field a 100% biodiesel team to run the Tecate Baja 1000 in November. Heavyweights Bosch and Gale Banks Engineering are reportedly on board to work up three stock truggies (those are the half truck, half dune buggies Baja types use for their intradesert runs). And there's talk of biodiesel proponent and driver of a veggie El Camino Daryl Hannah, and Hayden "That Anakin Guy" Christensen, being involved in some capacity. More details to come when Skiny decides to spill the whole thing. No word on whether the bio juice will come from corn or cactus hooch.

<![CDATA[Daryl Hannah and Her Biodiesel Camino!]]>

Henry Rollins once had a spiel from the late '80s on how he puts Daryl Hannah's name on the list for all of his gigs, hoping that she'll walk by and say something to the effect of, "Wow! Henry Rollins! That sounds wild! I'm gonna check that out." And while, as revealed in today's podcast, 3/4 of the current operating staff aren't supposed to rock the leche con carne (although at least one has a penchant for cheeseburgers), the other 1/4 has been a vegetarian for the last eleven years. He also owns the most inefficient car of the bunch. And of course, he's the one who used to drive his El Camino down El Camino Avenue to El Camino High.


So while we've known about Daryl Hannah's matte-black grease-fueled G-Body for quite some time, the amount of mail we received regarding a recent article on it in the SF Chronicle has finally prompted us to post on it, as did the provocative footage of Hannah licking the gas cap. Licking a gas cap! How delicious is that? And after watching the footage on her vlog, all we really wanna know is this: Daryl, do you like younger men obsessed with making silly punk references at work? If so, start cruising Pacific in San Pedro. We want a ride in your ElCo. Oh, and Roxanne is one of our favorite movies ever. We're gonna go cue up "Cyrano de Berger's Back" by X. Okay, mash note over. [Thanks to all who tipped.]
