Here is one I just found round the corner from my house. A new Dodge crew cab too! It was haulin a trailor that could have held 5 cars on it.

Hey,,,,how did it get on here already?!!??!! well, a guy here said it was probibly suppossed to get a sleeper on it. But they didn't and they just left the stretched section exposed. Well, they tried to cover it with a shiny toolbox.

Hi Newbie here from UK

Still trying to get to grips with photos, so appologies if it takes a few goes.

Here are some pics from the USA car show from here in England

Also, if there are any Brit or European cars that you're after, just let me know and I'll see if I can spot 'em!

Can't believe it has a plate on it. Kind of looks like it may float too.

They should do themselves a favor and try

As promised - Here is the , uhh, Vehicle that is Full of Win:

What I can gather about it:

- it's fiberglass, at lest on the outside
- the windows are plexiglass
- there is duct tape on the roof - a possible hinge for the door
- there is a 4 cyl shoved between the seats (looks like a 2.3 Ford)
- the roof vent leads to PVC 'ducting' to the rear mounted radiator
- its only about 36" tall

It looks like a movie car from some futistic science fiction thing - it's actually neat! I like it! I wonder what it's history is.. what it started life as?

[mikelo]

Wow! Looks like it may have had wings on it at one time. Is that a little black box hanging out of the back?

Thats funny you had some boats. Here are a couple more I found.





And this isn't directly a car, but car related.

Here's some cars I've seen around recently.

This weekend; $180,000 Austin Martin DB9, with a parking ticket ( ) and what I'm sure is illegal tint.


'lil red Corvette

Plymouth Satellite, turning the corner. Couldn't get the camera out fast enough to get it at the light.

Mustang in a state of confusion.

Some interesting rides from a recent local car show:

It's a car and a boat! I'll never understand how this didn't catch on.



Kit car.



Nothing like a blown and tubbed Caddy with flames down the side.


This truck was pretty sweet too. Bare metal body might present some rust issues being by the bay here.

[Railfreak78]

Here is some from the Mopar files that I haven't posted yet.

Up first is a couple of big players Cuda and a Challenger.



I thought this looked like a model. I haven't seen a 1:1 have a trailer like the kit


And a mix..

[Railfreak78]

A couple more....

Check out the green and wood panel

[tuffone20]

I found a few more photos of stuff I saw up in Northern AZ
This one I stopped and talked to the guy that owns it and took a lot of photos of it because some day I'd like to try and build a model of it.

This one was for sell at one of my stops and it had an asking price of $4,900 on it.

[mikelo]

Glad I have somewhere to put these now.
