That's the brakes locking up ;)   he definitely hit the brakes but the car kept going,  it's Toyota's fault.

Damn! I remember those Tiger Tails. That has to be one of the most successful marketing campaigns ever. What year(s) was that? Early or mid sixties?.

Big in the UK as well.  The ESSO sign means happy motoring, put a Tiger in your tank.  To the tune of Tiger Rag

A few pics from last night's show and shine in Hampton, NB, which is close enough to my hood and where my wife grew up.  It was a large show for here with ~ 200 cars on display, but mostly the usual local stuff that i've seen many times. Still fun to attend though and it was a beautiful evening.  Holly Mustangs Batman!  There must have been 50 of them at least!   

I didn't realize until after though that i had my camera set on low res... :P

Definitely the most unusual and rarest car at the show was this amphibious Maki M28 that was manufactured in Drummondville between '72 - '74.





Lots of C7s, but this was was the nicest. 





This Challenger was owned by a local detailing company and was very well prepped.  The engine bay was exquisite.





First 240Z I've seen with a 5.0L Ford engine mod.



This NA Miata look pretty good and low.



This Skylark Stage1 used to belong to my wife's older brother when he was 18 and it still looks good.



Not at the show, but at the beach park later.  Old and new school.

Playing road hockey with the boy and noticed a black car down the street with a hood scoop. We went to take a look. Newer Dodge Charger R/T Scat Pack. Looks nice  :D

A client/neighbour on my street, his girlfriend has an Audi R8!  Try to avoid cutting the grass when it's parked on the driveway.
