What did you see on the road today?

[Rocking Rodney Rat]

Carbeque!!! The company my wife works for was recently purchased by a very large national company. They are offering company cars, a Chevy Malibu (I think that's what that is).

In any case, my wife opted to keep driving her Volvo XC-60 instead. One of her co-workers picked up her car, drove it off the lot and down the street, then...BOOM!!  -RRR

Some muscle cars out early this morning; a silver early 70s Firebird that didn’t have the rear spoiler, and a pink 1970 Dodge Dart Swinger with a flat black hood. No pics unfortunately ?

Yeah, yeah a nice Chevy but the background-Bulk Barn!!!  And a big one, too.  Now THATS something they could/should export to the US without any hesitation.

We should always be prepared for a zombie apocalypse! It could hit at anytime!

A Lancia Delta Integrale is a real white unicorn in Northern suburban Chicagoland.

Lots of good stuff in that store; does not disappoint ?

Though I didn't see it on the road today, this Javelin was heading home from the St. Ignace car show back in early July. A nice action shot.

Was in Grayson KY today, and saw a car lot off a side street, but noticed some classic cars. They had a Kaiser sedan, a VW Bug convertible, Bug conversion pickup, a 59-60 Edsel Wagon, a Lincoln coupe (Mk. 3?) Porsche 924 and a 59 Ford hardtop convertible. Got pics. Oh, and a hearse.

Took me a while to find it, couldn't remember the name of it other than it had something to do with being a 'sorta' Mack truck replica:

Seen in Williams AZ.
The Mad Max Squarebody tow truck.

A '55 Chevy station wagon.

This is a private collection *next to the road* so it does not qualify for this thread. ?  I have taken a bunch of pictures, is it worth a new Topic?

Really like that Lincoln, and the Caddy's neat. How much for it did you look closer at it?

That Vega is a really, Really cool car, but I always find it funny when folks put factory stripes/markings on a car that is obviously very far removed from stock...........

Unfortunately we were going about 50mph past the caddy when I snapped the photo. I was surprised it wasn't blurred. I've stopped at that location before when the guy had others cars for sale. Weird dude and he always wanted way to much for what he had. 

[DJMar]

That Vega sure brings back memories...not all of them good! ?

[Falcon Ranchero]

Up and early this morning before eight I was driving to college first day and sighted a 1964 Chevelle. Seen it before; a photo of it should be on the car spotters thread in 1:1 reference cars if you wish to see it.

[stavanzer]

 

That is not a Ford. Dodge or Buick. Look at the Rad Shell and the Drum Headlights.

Wish I could see more of it, but truthfully many 1920's car looked very similar so it is hard now 100 years later to make exact I'D.s with just the parts shown here.
