OK, enough election crap.

Any others you want to add to the list?

Porsche 917-30


Hans Stuck's Audi Quattro


Michael Schumacher's F2006 F-1 Car


The Ford GT-40 testing at LeMans


Alain Prost's McLaren MP4-5


And just because it looks so cool, the Lamborghini Diablo VT


Add your sugestions..........

Sorry for the small size, but it's the only photo I have of my brother's just completed '46 Certainly not in the same category as Dan's Dream Machines, but I think it's cool.

That's plenty cool, Slabby.

Did he do the restoration himself?

Our old Family Truckster, way back in the day was a '68 Dodge Charger R/T complete with the 440 & 6 pack carbeurator.



Boy, I still remember the searing pain of those black vinyl seats on those hot summer days.

I also remeber my mother, used to her Toyota Corona, stomping on the gas at a stoplight, lighting up those 5-stars and about having a apoplectic fit.

How about this as your "All Terrain Vehicle"
Not exactly what any of us would need...

Dan...yes, he actually has done a lot of car design/restoration/modification and had some of his work in Road and Track. His last work prior to the one pictured was an old high-hood jeep that was pretty much a rust bucket initially and the coolest toy imaginable when completed.

FishHunter..that is a hoot! Cops are already checking it out! and who's going to clean those wire wheels?

Slabby,

Well if he's getting mention in R&T, he's done some top shelf work. I envy guys that can turn a heap up rusted parts in turn it into a thing of beauty again.

I friend of mine worked at Pete Lovely racing years back when they were doing a restoration of a '59 Ferrari Testarossa. Seeing that thing change from a crate of crap to a work of art was amazing. This is what it looks like now.


That 4-wheeler is cracking me up.

Keep them coming.............

I've got to run (old neighbors that moved to Boston just showed up) but I'll have a few more funny things to post when I get more time...

Here come some more....
Ghetto Buggy



Popes new Ride



Golf cart for when we are retired...

And this is what happens when you cross a school bus with a Cadillac Escalade...

I got another great one coming soon.
Wait for it.
Damnit I can't find it. I'll post it when I find it...

Fishgal's has a sporty ride. Can't say much for her parking abilitys, but I hear it really flys.

Fishhunter, I see guys on 4 wheelers tearing around the streets in west philly. They go as fast as they can and drive on the shoulder, and they get away with it since cops don't go into that part of the city.

The last guy who said "Euroweenie" was TK.

Reluctantly had to sell my old mule, should have talked about refurbishment with STAM first :


But I'm looking forward to the "new and improved" version:

69 GTO???

My guess as well.

Hey Slab Happy. What is that pumpkin in the pic. The reflections make the tail light hard to see. And maybe it's not original anyway. My very first car was a 1948 Ford two door. Had the 59A block, Edelbrock heads and IM, Zephyr gearing and a Columbia electric OD rear end. Painted Metallic green. Was purdy and gave the guys driving the 49's fits. Traded it in for the down payment on a house. Darn.

I remember leaving a party with a couple guys and a guy named Andy Fredricson in his 69 firebird to make a beer run back in high school. Went into town, loaded four cases of beer in the trunk, and Andy caught 3 gears pulling out onto Viking Avenue in front of a town clown parked across the street. Leaving town over the rise we saw his gumball machine go off in the rear view mirror. I told Andy to just get around the first corner and pull in a driveway and turn his lights out. What does he do? He slows down, turns his lights out and THEN turns in the driveway. Only he missed the driveway by 20 feet and put the car nose down in a 7-foot deep ditch. So we just sat there and waited to get busted.

That's my 69 firebird story. I have a 69 GTO story too.

Howabout 7000+ horsepower and 330 mph in the quarter mile?

Unless you have seen them in person, you cannot believe what they do.
Sheer Violence.

Top fuel cars are the top of the horsepower heap. Driving power that kicks you right in the chest.

Of course, that 917-30 had between 1000-1200 bhp AND you could drive it for significantly more than 1/4 mile between rebuilds.

I would have gotten out grabbed some beer and left his ass to take the rap, but that's just me.
