Emily Blunt Dines in Cape May as Spielberg Films in South Jersey

 

 Steven Spielberg is filming his latest movie in South Jersey, drawing excitement among locals. Actress Emily Blunt, rumored to be starring in the film, was spotted on set and later dined at Primal, an intimate Cape May restaurant. Owner Mia Chiarella described Blunt as gracious and down-to-earth, making her visit an unforgettable experience. With Spielberg still in the area for filming, Chiarella is hopeful that the renowned director might stop by next. While reservations at Primal are tough to get, she hinted that they’d make room for him if he decided to visit.  

Wildwood Beach Racer: A Modern Harley-Davidson with Vintage Soul

 Gasoline Motor Co. has transformed a modern Harley-Davidson Milwaukee-Eight Softail into the Wildwood Beach Racer, a stunning tribute to vintage beach racing. Inspired by The Race of Gentlemen in Wildwood, New Jersey, this custom build combines classic aesthetics with modern engineering. Featuring a rigid tail section, springer forks, and specially designed disc brakes, the bike captures the essence of early racing machines while delivering contemporary performance. With hand-fabricated fuel tanks, a solo saddle, and period-correct finishes, it’s a seamless blend of old and new—perfect for both the racetrack and the open road.
