Did You See Anything Good Today? 'Event and Showroom Edition'

[Joey D]

Lingenfelter Sledgehammer

Lotus Cortina...which was posted by NISM0 yesterday

 

[Cano]

dang Nismo, what a post! the Cortina, the "few Camaros", the black Biscayne (which appears to be a 409 car, very rare), the black Vette with the blower poking trough the hood, the spare Lotuses... phew! and that Mercury is not a Turnpike Cruiser, if I remember correctly, the TC had a LOT more options an trim on it (starting with quad headlamps), that seems just like a typical 1957 Monterey or something less so than a TC. But nice catch nevertheless.

 

[Cano]

Rue screamed:

CANOOOOOOOO!!! GET IN HERE!!!

ok, ok... sheesh...

in order of apparition: 1965 hardtop converted to full road-race use, nice one; 1966 fastback, possibly K-code, awesome 1966 GT-350 ragtop, most surely a custom replica because only SIX 1966 GT350 ragtops were originally produced by Shelby... or this might be one fo them? if so, you were looking at a cool 300-400k worth of Mustang there, which would be extraordinary, that such a signifficant car was left out in a mall... 1967 grandpa-fresh hardtop; very cool 1967 GT, which could mean 390 big-block power; 1967 Shelby GT500 with American wheels, possibly a clone (as who puts those wheels on an original Shelby anyway?); 1971 or 72 ragtop and finally a rare-colour-combo 1972 Mach 1 with bigger than normal Rally wheels, pretty nice.

Joey D: I'm pretty sure the Sledgehammer is actually Callaway, not Lingenfelter. Still nice all the same, but just an observation.

 

[NISM0_SKYLINE]

F430 with Novitech wheels?

575

308

California

Callaway Grand Sport

ZR-1

40th edition Corvette, not really that great, but according to the VIN it was within the top 50's of production.

Red Bull at a static display this morning. David Coulthard's driving it through the city centre this evening, but I expect that will be so crowded I won't get any decent pictures.

Afternoon update: went down tho the city hall where they've got a pit-style setup. Also saw David Coulthard walknig through town towards the event.

 

[NISM0_SKYLINE]

911 with a racey looking front bumper

933? Never heard that name before

F360

 

[lpb-nissan-gt-r]

It's a 944 I think.

 

[NISM0_SKYLINE]

It's a 944 I think.

That's what I thought too, but on the back they had 933. So unless he's just messing around I'm at a loss.

 

[SVX]

That last Ferrari is a 360.

 

[NISM0_SKYLINE]

That last Ferrari is a 360.

Ooops, I'm use to putting F430 all the time

Joey isn't the only one learning in his Mini, this guy's doing it in two places.

Finally a 1937 BMW, looks so much better in person.

 

[lpb-nissan-gt-r]
