1976 Chevrolet Monte Carlo with some odd body damage; looks like something fell on it, maybe:
1962 Austin-Healey 3000 Mk. II in Staunton:
What appears to be an Australian-spec 1958 Ford Customline convertible (1955 Meteor grille + 1956 Meteor side trim; see http://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_652506-Ford-Customline-1958.html ) on a box of candy in an upscale grocery store, except that the '58 Customline was not offered as a convertible:
And last, a picture I've been wanting to get ever since I got my Cougar:

Very nice indeed. Alpine S5 - 19,000 made from Oct 65 to start 68. Alpines/Tigers always look best with alloys like these.

Is Ausfahrt German for 'scrapyard' or 'banger track'?

@dsl
That linked dsl is definitely not me. A cheap imposter. I'm a much better dsl. And you won't find me on facebook, twitter or any other of those Devil's inventions which will eventually destroy mankind.

[...] Grille (and part below it) is very similar to old Land Cruiser: http://www.toyota-global.com/showroom/vehicle_heritage/landcruiser/collection/model_40_1.html
but seems a bit more squared...
but seems a bit more squared...
I eventually met the guy: the basis is indeed a 1979 BJ40. The body is made with an epoxy-based resin and will be molded in aluminium later. Still to be done: the windshield and the roof.
The chassis hasn't been changed, and neither has the engine, so the owner claims that it's street legal. But for now, I just wonder where the blinkers are hidden

Are these mandatory anyway? There are many BMWs and Audis that do not seem to have such item

Belgium has that problem too?
Saw this today:
Not actually one of the 10s of thousands of Sunderland-built Nissan Micras but a Japanese spec Nissan March (supposedly imported to the UK last year). Why go to the effort and expense of shipping one to Britain when you could just have a Micra for less than the cost of shipping?

to feel different,unique.
i see some RHD Nissan 300ZX ( or Fairlady ), Toyota Supra, Honda CRX or Toyota Soarer sometimes here while their NA counterparts are available, costing less but " so common " since they are LHD. i can understand if the vehicle is not in sale in the country ( saw a Toyota Sera here about 2 years ago )or have major differences between markets,it gives some kind of exclusivity but when the same vehicle is available in your country its kind of non-sense to me.
Of course, since a JDM car has the steering wheel on the same side as the UK and that its counterpart is available, makes that kind of purchase almost useless or at least a little weird.
but there is weird people all around the world....
sorry if its not well written , it was looking better in french in my head than in english on the screen
