1930fordpickup Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Here's something the wife spotted a few days ago and drove me past yesterday so that I could identify it. It definitely looks like a '63 or '71 Whatsitwhosit or perhaps a '53 Thingamajob. I do believe this car was in Hemmings Classic car. 30's Ford frame and flat head powered.

Joe Handley Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 A bright yellow Lancer Evo at the gas station, also filling up on E85, kid driving said the car was putting 450hp at the wheels on the stuff. Then within a few blocks of the hospital Mom is in, I saw a dark blue pre-war Plymouth 5 window coupe and a mid 60's Stingray roadster!

peter31a Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 That poor Packard looks pretty good but if she's been sitting through our winters with broken glass, I'd hate to see what's left of the interior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
935k3 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 (edited) I saw this driving to the exotic Car Show in Hershey, Pa yesterday. The owner is a New York City Divorce Lawyer. The license plate was interesting. The light green is the original color the rest is a wrap and trim tape. It looked like chrome missile coming down the road.

chunkypeanutbutter Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 XR-7 Cougar, a couple Porsche 944s, an AMC Marlin, a Ford Torino, a couple old Buicks, a mid-seventies Power Wagon Crew Cab, and a Cadillac like in Goodfellas. Nice weather brings out nice cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berr13 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Sitting at a stoplight at an I35 overpass in Schertz, TX, this morning, some sort of Ferrari made a left in front of me (don't know my Ferraris like I should, so I don't know what model--wouldn't even have been sure it was a Ferrari except for the yellow emblem on the fender and the sound as it took off). Still waiting at the light and a late '70s Pontiac Firebird Trans Am went by going the other way. Beautiful deep orange metallic with a gold firebird on the hood, snowflake wheels--very sharp.

Harry P. Posted April 28, 2015 Author Share Posted April 28, 2015 In an out of the way back road, a 1941-42 Packard Clipper. Geez, that looks pretty restorable.

chunkypeanutbutter Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Agreed. And the kids who broke out the windows should be beat with a stick! There's a place we go on the coast to get seaweed for garden fertilizer. On the way there, there's what I think is a late fifties Rambler by the side of the road. Been there for at least twenty plus years, and someone shot the windshield out years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pim Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Geez, that looks pretty restorable. Someone ought to rescue it before too much more deterioration happens...

The70judgeman Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 (edited) Yesterday, on my detour off and then back onto the freeway, there was a Reliable Transport rig unloading a car. That one, a Corvette, wasn't the one that caught my eye. It was the one on the lower tier at the side entrance door...a black '66 or '67 GTO. This morning, I saw a '66 or '67 Polara or maybe a Newport. Not exactly sure. On my way home from work tonight there was a Silver '77 or '78 Trans Am on the side of the road. On a side note. Something you don't see everyday around here. From the road , I saw a FA-18 Hornet coming in for a landing at Mitchell Airport. There is a National Guard Air-refueling unit based there, but no fighters are. Just a little unusual. Even with the driver-side window cracked and music blaring, man that plane was LOUD!

W-409 Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Last night after a local Cruising Night I was just Cruising around with my '60 Impala and then I saw this Chevy Caprice parked in side of the road. It was in pretty good condition and basically the only thing I didn't quite like was the fact that it had those barber shop ads on both sides.

Joe Handley Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Agreed. And the kids who broke out the windows should be beat with a stick! Considering the age of that car, "beating the kids that knocked out the windows with a stick" might even constitute elder abuse at this point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The70judgeman Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 First really decent weekend around here and poof....cars are coming out! Went to Culver's, a burger chain mostly here in Wisconsin, and there was a late 80's/early 90's(?) Mustang GT convertible and a black on black 1970 GTO that stopped me in my tracks...twice. On the way home from Culver's there was a '39(?) Chevy sedan(humpback) hot rod/street rod(however you want to look at it). And finally, right before I turned onto my street at the stoplight, an '85 or '86 Buick Grand National. All within a mile or so of home and I didn't bring MY PHONE!
