Awesome car! 273 V8 or Slant six?

Another big post from me:

Stupid camera I had with me didn’t allow me to set this properly, but it was a mid-30s Mercedes belonging to Germany Embassy, and of course PERFECTLY restored:

Hahaha this was neat, near a local fleamarket, check out the two dogs in the bed:

This very nice 68 hardtop with smashing Candy Brandywine paint belongs to a friend so it’s kinda cheating, 289-auto on console, American wheels, loads of chrome, award winning, maybe I’ll shoot it for the mag someday.

From awesome to weird, tell me what’s out of place in this Ka:

61 Galaxie outside a shop in one of the most dangerous parts of the city, but was too good to pass up the snap, look how solid it is! Needs Cragars:

Two-Brown El Camino, they are still a spot here because they were never sold in Mexico, and it was well kept:

Care to identify? I only saw the V12 badge and the bodyguards:

Mean looking 68 Barracuda with Cragars and side stripes, I’ve seen this one at the local strip: slow as hell:

Bastardized 39 Chevy Coupe a couple of blocks from my house, notice cheap billet wheels, horrid paint pattern (with bondo, of course) and general ugliness… needs black with flames and wide whites… and a HEMI:

No, it’s not a Ranchero, it’s a Falcon Hardtop turned into a panel sort of thing, very Mexican:

This freaking thing was ME-AN. Check out how tall it is! And look at that hoodscoop! It sounded bad ass too, very cool street freak.

Then, this oddity; no, it’s not a real Countach but a kit car from the 80s that you mounted in a Fiero I think; for the money, it looked pretty nice and the wheels are almost spot-on, one of the strangest spots I’ve ever had:

Awesome Renault 12 Gordini replica, complete with black wheels and the white stripe on the sides, freaking cool car, I’ve always liked these things, my dad had one when I was like 10, very dependable and revved to the moon:
stang023.jpg


1969 Javelin in pretty sad shape, but I think it’s well restoreable; six cylinder car as there were no V8 AMCs in Mexico ever, but these engines are torquey as hell, they’re huge! Base model too, with flat hood, the cool ones had scoopery.

New gen old shape mini cooper, the ones sold in the early 00s by BMW everywhere, with fender flares, yumi:

62 Galaxie big block sitting there for years, ironically, right next to one of the best speed shops of the city that typically sets up 10 second cars; they have tried to buy it but no success, it just rots to the ground:

Aaaaaaaand I finally finished with my Wife’s Photobucket content; now to stuff mine with pics.

If it's not the pointless twin exhausts, the truly hideous 'wires' or the 1.6 badge then it must be the Euro style rear lights?
 
Hahaha funny, I had not noticed the twin exhaust, I was really talking about the wire wheels, so freaking odd. The taillights are stock.

awesome De Lorean BTW

They spent all that money, yet couldn't buy actual fender flares. :rolleyes:
 
^ Looks like Superchips. It's probably tuned (hopefully even an engine swap with the dual pipes).

Beautiful candy Mustang, Cano!

Dodge Viper at the university's parking structure, belongs to a business school professor as far as I know.

Accord Euro R? I don't know what this is but thought I would take a picture. Had a Honda grill in the front as well and Honda Rims.

These two are at a dealer but I don't care, they were worth shooting.

Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggra, picture came out nice too!

Another small post from me, nothing too special, but I finally took the big boy camera out today on my day out to Birmingham and snapped a few:

VW Golf MK4 R32

BMW M3 E92

And a monochrome one

That B&W pic is very cool Dac_Xint , do you have it in larger sizes? I reckon it could make a cool wp.

Also, has anyone seen an LP560 in this thread yet?
 
^ I think it was a dealer car, but yeah, someone snapped an LP560 a while back.

Nice Superleggera shot, Joey 👍

My guess is that it's just a Acura TSX with all its badges changed. If it were a legit Euro R, it would have a body kit provided by Honda, witch this one doesn't and the rims are different.
 
That and the American Accord looks nothing like that, and based on our Secretary of State it would be impossible to get it plated. Could be a Canadian car though since I think that's the way the Accord looks there. I don't know I just thought I would post it and see what others thought, I figured it was a fake though.
 
Nono...the Acura TSX (sold in Canada, and possibly in United States) is the Honda Accord in Europe and in Hong Kong, China, etc.

Nobody buys TSX's in michigan? :nervous: Its definitely not a Kanadian thing because ive seen soooo many TSX owners on acurazine
