Nick F40 Posted March 6, 2009 Author Posted March 6, 2009 Hey, what happened to this little racer? Everyone clued into the steamroller but not the car... What is it, man??? No that's just Chris, being...Chris..I think he guessed it though, it's a 1960 Austin Healey Sprite racer. Ismael that is just sweet, even though I don't know
Corvette.Jeff Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 haha dang, and you even guessed the one behind it! let's see now, nissan sylvia s13? or maybe a s14?
Corvette.Jeff Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 I'll give you guys time to figure this one and ponder it mid 70's aston martin? maybe a vanquish?
Draggon Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 Let's try this one: Name blacked out. This is the Pat Clancy Special, a Kurtis Kraft 500G indy car from 1948. Driven to 12th place by Billy Devore. Havent we ween that blue Sebring Sprite here before?
eburg_Dub Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 FSO Polonaise (sp?) 1500 coupe [yeah it is polonez
Nick F40 Posted March 8, 2009 Author Posted March 8, 2009 nissan sylvia s13? or maybe a s14? no, good try, that one has been guessed, it's an Audi A4 mid 70's aston martin? maybe a vanquish? no, same country but not close, like Ismael said, it's a Sebring Sprite. That Indy car is just sweet, and Mike, glad you could join us!
CAL Posted March 14, 2009 Posted March 14, 2009 Not totally junk, these cars were good! Well that one isn't
Nick F40 Posted March 27, 2009 Author Posted March 27, 2009 Did we figure out the Dasher knockoff?? I need to find more pictures....
FujimiLover Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 I got one for yea. Some of you old farts might know it. Guess the name, and decade.
84vanagon Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 I got one for yea. Some of you old farts might know it. Guess the name, and decade. Aerocar. Late 40's.
FujimiLover Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 Yes, but more precise late 40's-mid 50's. My Dad has one of only five of these and HIS is the only one still flying today.
84vanagon Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 (edited) Thats cool! Is the one pictured your dad's? Have you flown in it?! I was going off of my memory, and didn't realize that the Aerocars were produced into the 50's. Edited March 29, 2009 by 84vanagon
84vanagon Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 I'm going to be forward and consider my answer mostly correct. How about this antique:
FujimiLover Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 No, the one my Dad has is the yellow and green one you may see on Discovery channel every now and then.
