STILL OUT THERE: POST YOUR ROAD GOLD


Recommended Posts

Folks, it's always great to see what people are still driving, in particular when it comes to the classics . . . hope that, like me, you carry your camera with you at all times . . . because you never know what you will spot sitting pretty in the middle of a city. Case in point, this beauty I found in Miami just parked nowhere special . . . enjoy.

You've got to be kidding me, right. I go out to my garage and there it is. The car I use as my daily, if need be , transportation. My 66 s55 Mercury rag top. Granted, I get quite a bit of attention around town on my jaunts. i.e. what year is it? What is it? Does it really have a 428 in it? Or. is it for sale? Nope

How about having a Ferrari Maranello (I think...) and a Porsche GT pass you? This is like a million or so dollars cruising on the Southern State Parkway, which driving on is similar to qualifying at Darlington.

That's a Testarossa.... Except for the regular cars, looks like a regular day on the road here...

So Cal beach area? I hate you..... thumbup.gif

I've been to San Diego (my favorite place besides Coronado...) & the L.A. area so I know exactly what you mean. LOTS of neat stuff in daily traffic. But to see these cars out in rush hour traffic is a very brave decision out here. VERY brave....

I spotted a 66/67 fastback Charger today at a local auto shop that usually has a little old iron in the parking lot. It was a 383 badged car and it had a LOT of rust. Nearly made me cry. And not the "it gives it character, a little patina" kind of rust. It had the "you-know-you-hit-the-cat-because-you-saw-it-as-it-passed-beneath-you" kind of rust. Darn shame how people will let the car sit in the "i'll get to it someday" section of the yard until it's no longer restorable.
