Me & the wife with a '39 American Bantam at the Yankee Candle Village, South Deerfield, Mass.

Ingo, I'm guessing the guy wearing the North Korean shirt is you?
07/08/2013 @ 01:04:10: chicomarx: interesting/funny/special cars sightings
That's definitely the guy I'll be betting on in a fist fight.

What does haggis taste like?
07/08/2013 @ 09:13:42: ingo: interesting/funny/special cars sightings
@karoomay: yes. But I'm not the only IMCDB-ist on the pic.

@Neptune: (surprisingly) not that much like entrails -where it is made from-, the seasonings are in the foreground, also the onions and a bit the oat. But in fact the main taste is grease. The version you see on our dishes, was deep fried, so not the classic style ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haggis )

It's very satiable, especially as here, with chips/French fries/pommes frites. As dsl has commented: "Ideal for a long working day in the mountains". That's true, I wasn't hungry until the late evening.

yes. But I'm not the only IMCDB-ist on the pic.

So, I assume the other guys in the pic are dsl and Sandie you met on your recent trip to Scotland?

Some Norwegian guy went to Sweden and bought a Neckar Jagst 770:

That is quite an interesting find, atom :smile:

Nice Saab indeed, I hope it will be restored :smile:

Picture I took in 2011 of a SAAB 900 with the rear part from a Volvo 855:

@karoomay: yes :smile:

Such a Nissan Sunny Van http://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_9533-Nissan-Sunny-Van.html is running in my village. Obviously an extreme rarity, as we have only this one listed.
09/08/2013 @ 10:21:41: antp: interesting/funny/special cars sightings
Isn't http://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_180170-Nissan-Sunny-Van.html the same model? That makes two listed :grin:

This afternoon, when we had dinner in the best place around the whole Ruhr Area for roast chicken -and pommes frites, too!- ( http://www.hahnfinke.de/ )
a Brilliance BS4 passed on the street. Different to the other very few Brilliances, I've spotted before, it had a regular registration and was used as a family car. The other (just 2 or 3 at all) were all dealer's cars.

Hi Skywatcher68 :hello: Nice to see your face here :smile:


:hello:


Have you tried to change the places with the two teddybears? Hopefully not, I cannot recommend that, after my traumatizing experiences, once in a Nissan Copen and annother time in a Thurner RS.


Naw. I have enough trouble fitting in a VW Rabbit.

I recently saw a 1973 or 1974 Ford Custom 500 along Florida State Road 50 in Clermont. This guy had to know he was going to get attention strictly because it's a Custom 500.
10/08/2013 @ 05:49:39: Ddey65: interesting/funny/special cars sightings
On the same day, I took a picture of an F-350 Super Duty pickup with DRW on US 27 in Davenport, Florida, but this one had a custom-built bed that had to be at least 12 feet. Most pickup beds are a maximum of 8 feet.

Sadly, it had some damage to the driver's side rear fender.

So two "fords custom", but I prefer the older one.

@atom - retrocrap = Nestor Majestic.

Do you had there a chance for an IMCDb-user-meeting? :smile:

I cannot remember, that I've seen such in Germany. Unfortunately I missed it, to make pics, but in the UK there were some, 3 or 4, even smaller Camper in Fiat-basis - every time it was such a short sight, that I couldn't identify the basis-car :sad:
Doblo? Punto? Does anyone knows more :confused:

They remind me the Camper on Uno-basis from the late 80ies, also the Camper, based on the Citroen Visa.
