Car ****

Not a car but still cool. 1930 Steam Line KJ Henderson motorcycle.

 

[Peanut]

Although I've ridden quite a few motorcycles I've never wanted to own one... except this one... Something about this one calls my name. Maybe when I'm old and rich I'll buy one and hire someone to ride it around in my yard so I can watch.

I'd slide down a razor blade a mile long, into a lake of snot for one of these...

This is the only car I would not drive even if I owned one:

It has been an icon in my mind for so long that if I drove it I think it would become just another car.

She is purrrrrrrrrdy though.

 

[SheepDog]

Yes and a high speed angel. Won three times? at the 24 hour Le Mans track beating out all the Europeans. 427 OHC with between 600 and 1000 HP, a 4 speed Top Loader Ford transmission coupled in a modified German transaxle. The few street cars they sold had only one option; air conditioning and you were wise to get it. All that glass made it a solar oven.

Well you gotta tell me what this is? Beautiful car, but I have no idea what it is.

I always liked what they use to call 'boats', long and roomy. felt protected in those big cars ,afraid of smaller cars of today.

I had an '82 Caddy Deville.
Nothing like sitting down in that big leather seat and looking out over 8-feet of good American steel standing between you and anything you might hit:

Boat? Does 18.5 feet-long measure up?

Me too, liked the Caddy's and Lincoln's. Never owned one but always rented a Lincoln for trips. Did have a couple station wagons of course not the same.

Now this is a boat. Bugatti Royale Kellner Coupe.
