I recently spotted this 1967 Chevrolet Bel Air for sale along New York State Route 25 near Orient Point, New York.

The thing looks like something Grandma drives to visit the grandkids around Thanksgiving or Christmas, or whenever.

My grandfather had one in gold. Have the sales paperwork from when he bought it new at my dad's house. It was his last car.

Technically a truck but an interesting one from the Formula E race in Hong Kong:

The cab comes from a Mitsubishi Canter.

I checked the plate OU66LZC, and it gave me "Charge T8" as manufacturer. And "Charge" was the company's former name, according to Wikipedia. But either Charge or Arrival are too generic for a brand name, IMHO.

Yeah it sounds generic, but Arrival is the company name.

Yesterday afternoon, on the way back from office, I saw on the A2 nearby Bottrop, two trucks, loaded with US-spec brand new Buick Cascada, going westbound.

Nearly brand new (55 km / 34 mi!), costs as much as a current brand new car but... still cheaper than when it was bought 45 years earlier :grin:

(According to this converter, 93.620 öS from 1972 = 28.848 current euros)

I told you about the '67 Chevy Bel Air I spotted on the North Fork of Long Island. Well, on the way up, I drove up I-95, and I took a detour around Washington, D.C. towards US 301 via Virginia State Route 207. On the way there, I spotted this rural garage called "Southern Truck and Custom," in Milford, Virginia.

Among the cars and trucks they had were a 1986 Chevy C-10 with a short wheelbase.

Here's the second pic. I don't know if I should cover up the phone number or not.
08/12/2017 @ 01:45:25: Ddey65: interesting/funny/special cars sightings
There was also a nice 1966 Dodge Coronet there.
08/12/2017 @ 01:48:05: Ddey65: interesting/funny/special cars sightings
CougarTim might like this one. Next to the Coronet was a 1977-79 Mercury Cougar.

A mid-1980's Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS was also on display.
08/12/2017 @ 01:54:36: Ddey65: interesting/funny/special cars sightings
And across the driveway from that Monte Carlo was an old broken down Isuzu N-Series truck being used as a billboard for the garage. If you'd like, I can make a cropped version of this.

Nissan Micra deliberately drifting in the snow. :lol:

He was just drifting around the roundabout together with another Golf driver who had fun. Drfting with a Micra? Wth?

seen today , i still don't believe it ( or most likely the fact that i wasn't in a position to take a pic )

Renault Laguna wagon . I don't know the year range of course but it was really surprising to see , i was like : what the .. is that wagon ? until i saw the Renault logo on the back... :eek:
10/12/2017 @ 03:00:20: eLMeR: interesting/funny/special cars sightings
[...] I don't know the year range [...]

2001-07 Renault Laguna II (fr, en).
It must be a personal import, but it's not really the best Renault model to be found of (if any). Especially if a 2001-05 Phase 1, as this one is known to have had a lot of electronic problems.
10/12/2017 @ 03:47:32: Baube: interesting/funny/special cars sightings
thanks eLMeR :smile:

must be a Gen 2 Phase 1 ( front end was like the one in my link , it didn't had a Renault logo on a grille divider like the facelifted ones )

agree on the private import, last Renault sold here was , if i remember well, the Medaillon / Premier
20/12/2017 @ 19:47:08: Baube: interesting/funny/special cars sightings
seen yesterday

1995-1996 Ford Escort LX , getting kind of rare ( even the last ones i can spend a few days without seeing one ) and a clean example ( well, if you don't look at the horrible white thing on it ) is even rarer
