Mixing of the brands


Buick Regal with S-10/Sonoma bed and Pontiac wheels... wondering what they took from Oldsmobile....

It's soul.

Want to see something horrifying?? As found on e-Bay, the Eldorette!! A 1976 Corvette L-82 transformed into a luxury coupe.

oh my.... with 1st gen Chevette tail lights.... and what seems to be Malibu headlights.... horrible way to scrap a Corvette....

Same era as the Stutz Blackhawk, when Clenet and Excalibur were at their best, and when bell-bottomed pants and unbuttoned flowered shirts were the fashion norm (remember Starsky and Hutch or CHiPs?). That was the way to be visible
I'm not sure that 2017 "extreme" design (nor dress codes) will be more appreciated, in 2057

I actually like the Stutz. Maybe because I had the Hot Wheels version as a kid. The others, no. None are still as bad as that Corvette.

just curious : after watching those ... things, is it normal that i feel a sudden liking & sympathy for the Pontiac Aztek ?

So did I. And I still have a perverse/macabre and inexplicable liking for the car - I've got a couple of the recent 1:43 diecasts by Premium X - nice models and reasonably cheap after a bit of searching.

I always liked that one, even long before watching Breaking Bad

Not exactly funny but what is the car in this famous photograph?

Indeed, thanks. Then brand new as well at the time of the stock crash.

No matters where in the world you end up, you just can't deny your origins..


Cars, winter edition

Have a old Subaru in need for a paint job and don't want to search for it in the parking lots ? this could be an interesting option


Or if you want a little younger car and afraid dinosaurs might damage it , there is always this one

( tires still might come off if chewed by a T-Rex )

If the green and yellow is not too bright its actually a very awesome looking paint scheme in my opinion. When done right like on the Subaru it turns out to be a cool car.

But to be honest: You need to use an american car for that.

On the Subaru it is nice indeed.
It looks good on SUVs & wagons, but not on any car
In the original Jurassic Park story (the book) cars were Toyota, not Ford

Yep, Land Cruiser to be more specific
When it got published the Explorer was in the showrooms only since a few months
Still holds my personal record as i read it in less than 3 days...

i never thought Wacky Races ( known to me as Les fous du volant ) were a real thing !

I'm not sure I understand it. Is it simply because it's a rebadged japanese car ?

yep.. or more likely, because the name of the original is in the licence plate

Aaah... RVR, of course !
