That isn't a yank. It's detailed like one, but it's not. Wrong proportions. Some sort of 70's Toyota or Datsun 2-door sedan?
 
I'm from Brasil, I'm in this forum at some time as voyeur, but today my son show me as post pics, so, I'll start pics of hot rods made in Brasil of americans, europeans and brasilians cars. This is my prefered Forum in the GTP, I love old cars, specially hot rods and customs.
 
Here's a suggestion, when you have more pictures, just click the "edit" button on the bottom right of your post, and add them to the same post, so you don't have a bunch of posts one after another.

Major WTF moment when I first saw that Buick.

That was the raffle prize; a '34 sedan body and chassis. In an audience that was 90% male, I was amused to see the person holding the winning ticket was female. And 6 years old.

Note for Venari: The red Mercury Cougar I posted a few pages back was there, but I didn't see it until it was leaving. Sorry.
 
I found 50p on the floor.

Oooh! Brainwave: all monies I find on the floor will go into the "Get Roo a '68 Charger" fund.
 
the gtx with the spoiler was one of me favs there :D quite a few gooduns but lotsa naff stuff too (maybe they missed the turning for the car park :dunce: )

That is concentrated awesome.

Is there another pic of that Lola T70?

Oh my. That is concentrated awesome!

👍👍

I like the look of the 1970 nose and the Superbird fin together.
 
I know a while back I posted a photo of my Dads dragster from the 70s.

Engine and Gearbox

PICT0312.jpg


Information about them I know off....

The engine was from a Buick (not sure what model) from my Grandad's bosses car, which he rolled into a field. The gearbox is a 'new' one from an E-type (maybe D type, think it was E type) and he also used the rear axle from the D/E-type. Never got to turn the engine over, looks a little sad now doesn't it?

Edit: Hope it doesn't make the page too big, always shut off your bookmarks...
 
That Lola is beautiful, in a purposeful ugly duckling kind of way. I love T70s. I want a replica Spider version with an LS7. Saw one at the Brum Classics show - it was just fabulous..
 
I could've cycled there.

(If I didn't have to take a crate of Easter eggs to bribe the Scouts there to litter pick, that is.)

Cars come from all over the place though - I was looking at a Mopar forum, and one guy who bought his Charger along came from Swindon. A couple of the cars that turn up most years (A Fiat 600 and a Subaru 360) are put into service as taxis at the Goodwood Revival Meeting. Luckily for me, it's right on my doorstep.
