What did you see on the road today?

[TarheelRick]

I was driving down the interstate heading home from town and saw an altered wheelbase 65ish Falcon on top of a three-car auto hauler.  It was in primer.  Since I was driving a bit over the posted numbers I didn't have time to get my phone out to get a picture.

[Dave Ambrose]

I didn't get a picture, but I saw a lovely Franklin. I think it was a Torpedo Phaeton, but it went by too fast for a picture. I have a feeling there are a lot of super interesting cars around here. Oddly enough, this isn't the only Franklin I've encountered around here.

You don't see these on the street very often!

A lovely Saab 90 in Shoreditch a few weeks ago

 

And a beaut of an original Beetle in the visitor's carpark at work!

Nice. About 15 years ago when I worked on Broadway, I would always see an orange Murcielago, I wonder if it is the same car.

Get back to us if you see that car out in the wild come, say,  January or February.

Thank you for the pictures and the links.  They bring back a lot of memories.

Every time I've been to my new client in Seattle, this puppy has been there!  I finally took a photo.  I rented one of these in Aruba many years ago. When I got back to the USA, I test drove one and decided there was no way I wanted to drive one in New Jersey traffic. So I went up one level in confort and refinement and bought a new Geo Tracker in 1991.  I still have it!

 

Back home in Pennsylvania I stopped into Lowes and this nice '68 Camaro RS was sitting there. I couldn't get a photo of it without people looking at it.

I saw an old SWB Land Rover this morning on my way to work.  I think it lives  here in town.

[Rodent]

Friday I saw a red 60 Impala convertible with a white top and a blue 69 Super Bee sharing transporter space with a very mundane silver Corolla. No pics unless I look on my dash cam.

[dino246gt]

How about this cool old 'Burban:

[Deuces]

Some pics from the "Mustang Memories" car show today at F.W.H. in Dearborn.....

[misterNNL]

Saw my first Corvette C8 today. It was white headed south on I75 about mile post 110. Very cool looking at speed.

[Rob Hall]

Out on Kelleys Island (an Ohio island in Lake Erie) yesterday I saw a clean red/cream '55 Chevy Bel Air convertible, a clean yellow w/ black top late 60s-early 70s Jeep Commando, and a couple '59-60 Ford pickups that had been put out to pasture.    After taking the ferry back to the mainland, I saw a dark blue Bentley Mullsanne and a dark red Lamborghini Aventador driving through Marblehead.

A few cool (or at least interesting) sightings from around the neighb this past week...that black monstrosity actually drives around here regularly, and I suspect would have been towed if it were not for the cop badge in the window ?

[Tom Geiger]

Hey this one looks like a model of mine!    Looks like someone is building a car at the curb.

Small local car show last Sunday. I was too late for the Ferrari 250 convertible and the 289 Cobra I saw on the road earlier. ☺️
