W-409 Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 On Monday I drove to the city (Helsinki, Finland) as I had to stop by at a small shop... As usual there was nothing interesting in the traffic (if the '74 Malibu I was driving doesn't count), until I saw this pretty clean Volvo Amazon Wagon parked on a street. Volvo Amazon was pretty popular car back in the day and you can still see them sometimes in traffic. But these wagons are not as common as the two or four door sedans.

89AKurt Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Forgot about this thread..... just driving downtown Prescott in my '69 Chevy pickup, a Ferrari in front.... oh wait, two ..... oh what's that on the right ..... oh wait, what's over to the left .... I confess, a friend called me: "You downtown?" Me: "No, why?" Him: "Bunch of Ferraris, more pulling in." ~click~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LL3 Model Worx Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Wish I had been quicker with the cam... (phone is slow) but right through the light on a flat bed trailer is a (very nice) German Panzer IV tank!! Going down the street in my podunk town. Then I saw this... an E-Type Jag... bizarre stuff for these parts! Then this one... very sharp for a 4door. Then this guy rolled up and made my day!!! Wish there was a kit... gonna have to scratch build one someday! I see alot of wild stuff for such a small town... but then car scene here is HUGE!

Hahaha! Or "the Weiner is bulged in all the wrong places... " All the puns/potential puns would run amok... After all, a bunch of guys are on a model car forum discussing the intricacies of their weiner. It would be both an awsome kit and hilarious!

"That Weiner definitely contains filler" And then there’s the discussion of what color the weiner is, etc etc ? A few years ago when I visited “The Henry Ford”, the museum had an old weinermobile or two. So, that might be the place to start your research for the prototype weiner...?

ToyLvr Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Seen today, literally “on-the-road”, a “Speed Calming Device” in my neighborhood. I guess this is the new terminology for a speed bump. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna require big rubber.... and I don't have any in the parts box lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

espo Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 I remember when I was a child when one of the Weinermobiles came thru town they where actually cooking hot dogs and handing them out for free along with a weiner whistle. No health departments to worry about back then. Somewhere I think I still have that whistle, shaped like a miniature weiner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Hall Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 Maybe 6-7 years ago one morning I was driving to work in Tempe, AZ and passed a Weinermobile going over the bridge at Tempe Town Lake. That's the only time I've ever seen one.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
