Nice stance, but those wheels just have to go.

Amen! Lousy Choice of Wheels.

I'm in the UK and we would need two and a half or even three garages both side by side and length ways to get it in.

I was driving a work truck so I couldn't get a pic, but saw a like new Nightwatch Blue '66 GTO Convertible in Spring Valley, CA. It looked like it even wore Hurst mag wheels on all four corners.

Remeber the '69 Nova from last fall where I made that thread about whether or not I should choose the Nova or a 1988 Lincoln Town Car? Long time ago now but I've been seeing what appeared to be that Nova, but with nice polished paint, and a new vinyl top; it looks like a million bucks. Saw it up close yesterday but couldn't get a photo right away (was driving). but I got a photo in the rearview mirror at a stop sign. Blurry photo so you can't tell how good it is but you'll have to take my word for it. It's nice that someone bought it and actually made it nice. First photo is of the Nova last fall, though you can't really tell, it has a dark brown vinyl top. Last photo is the one I got yesterday; it has a light beige one now instead. Not sure if the engine has changed, just a 6 cylinder as far as I know.

Yesterday I saw this in the construction traffic jam.  Used to hear it every day below me, always full throttle, then nothing for awhile, then heard again but restrained.  Must have moved, haven't seen/heard for some time.

Lexus SC430.

 

They’ve grown on me, I like the  folding hardtop aspect.  I like the original SC a lot.  I also really like the LC 500.  Would love to have a Nori green LC convertible.

Lest I appear to be just a chevy fan with my pics, it's really just a case of hardly ever seeing old Fords or dodges cruising around.

Spotted near a road, getting ready to mosey on over to pick up  a wedding party destined for an outdoor ceremony yesterday near the trees in the background.

Ain't love grand?

On Friday I saw what all season daily driving does to a mid-80s GMC truck here in town. Saw the truck around for the past 4 or 5 years but never got a photo of it, until a few days ago. So crazy rusty, when it turned I looked back and the box was swaying from side to side. I swear it's been on the road every day of the year since like '85. And today I took the longer way home past my old highschool to see if my friend's younger brother's car was parked there, and sure enough, it was. Parked it in the next lot over from the school lot though, which is a smart idea. It's an original paint, original Soo car, 1969 Chrysler Newport.

Yesterday we went to visit that car guy that has the '68 Cougar etc. because he had just come back from a swap meet in the states with 2 trunk emblems for our LeMans. They don't exactly fit because they're for a '67, but it's such a close fit that we're going to make them work. Better than paying 100$ for one off of OPG or other aftermarket suppliers only to get a repro part. These, while not for a '69 are real deal '67 emblems. I was able to get better photos of his Nova, plus he showed us some other cars he had stashed away in other garages that he didn't show us before, namely an original paint 1964 Chrysler New Yorker that I had seen around before but never knew he had it. Also it turns out he has a rare Willys Whippet. Both cars were in separate garages with old tractors. Couldn't get a great photo of the Chrysler but I have photos of it from a car show in 2023.
