My brother had a burgundy Tracer just like the one in that photo back in college.

I just found this link to a rare articulated bus owned by the Metropolitan Suburban Bus Authority back in the early-1980's(Revert to a link if the image is too big):

In the meantime, I want to gather some more Spring Hill Car Show sightings soon.

Here's one of a number of pics I took of a 1986 Buick Regal Stage 1 with a 455 engine. I repeat; This is a 1986 Stage One!

The owner built it himself at the former Buick factory he used to work in. Don't think I won't post more.

Here's a close-up of the the grille logo, but this guy didn't just slap on a few logos.

Can I use the Upload for commnets feature here?

Rather use imageshack or another site like that for the forum

That's a DAC 117 UD from Romania. I wonder how it ended up in New York.

I saw a Baja Bug in my town from California. Not too common to see.

If that's the case, I'd rather just use the "Attach a File" function myself.


In the meantime, here's a shot under the hood.

This is the Vehicle Emissions Control Information tag.

The hubcaps claim it's a "Turbo 6."

Another shot under the hood, although it's a little blurry.

Hood scoop from the driver's side...

.. and the passenger's side.

I'm not sure what this is, although I've seen these before, but it appears to be connected to the tachometer over the dashboard.

And the last scene of this car, unless I can edit something of it from a video I took.

As it seems, is the Mercedes Econic garbage-truck from the local company broken. So the had to take a Dutch rental truck.

Here are some more pictures I found. These were made in circa 1994/95. They were mostly from Northwest Chicago Suburban area.

Look at all that rust some of those cars have since Illinois has a cold climate during the winter and the excessive use of rock salt to melt snow on roads, which causes rust to steel. I doubt many of these cars still exist today after 20 years, most have been probably scrapped by now.

Every now and then when I see cars on the road in Georgia where I live now with surface rust like these pictures I posted, I muttered myself saying that "You are not around from here!"

The Jensen is intriguing - badge looks as if it reads Jensen SP. Only one SP ever sold new in US - http://www.richardcalver.com/article_sp.htm . If badge is not SP, I can't think of a different designation that would fit - only 1 FF was sold in US, but it then went to Aus.
