Things seen in the neighborhood
« on: June 20, 2016, 03:29:37 pm »
There's a house I walk the PA past on occasion. An unassuming little wood framed bungalow in the village but with a lot worth likely in excess of a $1M and sandwiched between other larger homes dwarfing it.
Anyways, the owner has a 1971 Lotus Super 7 in the drive most days except for the Winter months. There was a time that there was also Maserati Sedan of some sort parked behind it. Lately though I think he (she?) has replaced it with a Mini Cooper on some recent vintage resplendent with 'Union Jack' painted mirrors..
On my walk Sunday though there was a trailer parked in front of the house. Nobody was around for me to talk with but all the doors of the trailer were open.
Anyone know what it is?

^ That reminded me that one of the guys around the corner from me has a Yenko Chevelle "tribute". I spoke with him briefly, it's a pretty convincing looking and sounding facsimile.
I didn't have my phone with me to get a picture.

Looks a lot like this guy:

Damn, now I'm really confused. If I see something cool while I'm on my way to work, and it's the weekend, and I'm still in my neighborhood, where the heck am I going to post about it? ???

And why is a thread full of car pics in the OT section. ???

Not trying to confuse Man - post anything you come across cool in your hood. Yes, so far just cars but give it a week or so.

Driver hit the gas instead of the brake.  Went through a fence, then hit a parked car.  No injuries.  The tire track in the second photo says "hard on the gas" to me.
