Modlbldr Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 I saw this 2018 GT-R R35 at a gas station in town the other day but the guy left before I could get my phone out. I went to the dealership yesterday and look what was up for sale! http:// http:// http:// http:// This just happens to be the same color as my 2018 Rogue. I was told that the guy traded it in for a brand new BASE MODEL Rogue and $50,000. I wanted to get better pics of it but the room it was in was tiny and full of windows with the sun low in the sky. Later- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Ambrose Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 I saw a super nice MG TC today at lunch. I hope they show up at British car day in October. I’d like to take a closer look at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SfanGoch Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 (edited) '66 Chevelle SS convertible in the supermarket parking lot this afternoon. Edited May 26, 2019 by SfanGoch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Might be a SS want a be. Got the Hood and the grill emblem. Front fender has small block emblems and nothing on the rear panel. This is still a nice looking Chevelle anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Cole Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Not often do I need to ask "what is it?", but that is what I posted to social media when I saw one of these (photo grabbed from the internet). I thought it looked like a Karmann Ghia, but it wasn't. Or so I thought. Turns out, it is. A type 34 Karmann Ghia. From what I am told.

misterNNL Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 On this beautiful memorial day I saw a '53 Cadillac hardtop in a light powder blue, a Chevy SSR, a triple black Vette ZO6 and a first gen Mustang rag top. Not bad for west central Ohio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, a model not sold in the USA but a lot of them have made their way here over the years. When I lived in Germany 1969-72 the family across the hall from us had one as a second car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterNNL Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Spotted a Cobra Daytona Coupe on U.S. 33 on the way home from Columbus,Ohio this afternoon. That is the only one I have seen anywhere. Very cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not familiar with what ever this car is including who makes it. With your mention of him trading it in for a Rogue plus 50K can I assume it's Nissan?

misterNNL Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 We live in Jackson Center,Ohio which is the home if the Airstream trailer factory so out of state license plates are not uncommon. However this week there are hundreds of Airstreams in town for their annual Alumapaloosa rally so our little two traffic light village has them everywhere. What I saw was a plate from the Northwest Territories. That's the plate shaped like a polar bear. First one I have ever actually seen.

Mike999 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 A 1957 Chevy Bel Air, red with a white roof and looking bone-stock, right down to the hubcaps. In the parking lot of Wal-Mart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

espo Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 You have to wonder about the story behind the little Chevy coupe. So the guy' likes Corvairs. Now this mid '50's Ford F100 with the caved in roof and the Big Block sitting in back ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Friday Night at Holy Field Winery I'm standing in line at the Food Truck when this guy pulls in the parking lot with a '57 or '58 Ford F100 in Moon Eyes Yellow and White. American five spokes with dark gray centers and couldn't be any lower unless it was on Air. Of course the Tail Gate was a little higher in the air just like it should be. Now I have to find a '57 Ford F100 short bed kit to build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robdebie Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 (edited) Just a few random photos of yesterday's Saturday Night Cruise in The Hague, The Netherlands.

misterNNL Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 At the annual community car show in our village we had beautiful weather which naturally equals lots of cool rides that might otherwise not leave their garages. That group ran the gamit from a 12 cyl Ferrari to '23 Chevy touring car. My absolute favorite was a'27 Buick speedster with a twin carb straight six engine and only slightly muffled exhaust.

Tom Geiger Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 Remove that one piece of trim hanging off the front fender. Add door handle and some cool wheels. Maybe a grille... it'll probably start! LOL Great patina! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
