This sight made me giggling. How wrong would it be, if there would be an anorexia-girl instead?

P.S. I'm still a bit angry about myself, that I couldn't made a photo of a really funny truck-inscription :angry:
It was a truck from a German lighting or lamp-producer (I haven't noticed the name, so I cannot google either). The motif was a photo of a naked girl, but it was too dark to see any details. The inscription said "If you would have our lightings, you could see everything" :banzai:

I was at a large car show a few weeks ago. I've already mentioned the car most noteworthy to our purposes on IMCDb ( http://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_191034-Chevrolet-Heavy-Duty-1939.html ) but here are a few other highlights. I can provide more pictures of pretty much any car here if anyone wants them. There were also the usual slew of Corvettes, Mustangs, Thunderbirds, and Model As, but I largely ignored those.

1964 Dodge Custom 880

And now, my two favorites:

1928 Reo Flying Cloud (Look at the detail on the dashboard; the whole car was filled with amazing little touches like that. They really don't build them like that anymore.)

And then last weekend I was in Pittsburgh.

1935 Ford pickup hot rod on the Pennsylvania Turnpike on the way up:

Trixy The Trundle Hauler of Trundle Manor, a strange art museum/self-proclaimed tourist trap/steampunk paradise type place. In a previous life, Trixy was a 1952 Dodge pickup. Now her exhaust shoots flames.

While in Pittsburgh I went to another, smaller car show. The two most noteworthy cars in my eyes were a 1954 Dodge Coronet and a 1956 Studebaker Commander:

And, as a bonus for our construction equipment lovers, an old Massey-Ferguson wheel loader. I think it's a 55, but any model identification has been painted over:

And with that I'm done dumping pictures on you for now.

EDIT: I tell a lie, I forgot one. Somewhere in rural Pennsylvania, a Chevrolet Venture with a replacement hood from a Pontiac Montana. You'll notice it doesn't fit.

1980 604 hidden in corner of guarded parking lot:

Who knows, maybe it is even one of the 604s originally used by state administration in the 70s and early 80s.

Saw this one today. Had to be quick because my light was about to turn green so i did not had time to zoom and do a nice pic. i hope it will be visible enough. Late 80's Nissan Skyline ( or GT-R ? )
20/07/2015 @ 17:07:35: Mark99: interesting/funny/special cars sightings
Seen three weeks ago at EXPO (Milan).

On March 19, I went to yet another Spring Hill Car Show, and found what seemed like the most unbelievable thing at the time. A couple with a 1921 Oldsmobile pickup decked out like in "The Beverly Hillbillies.

On this second pic I was a little too slow to get the whole back on the car.
Old NL plate.
23/07/2015 @ 04:46:48: Baube: interesting/funny/special cars sightings
nearly missed that one but on my way back i saw it was still there so i decided to stop ( we even see my car in background but its not the interesting one :lol: ). this one can fill both special sightings and need help to identify a car because all the badges were saying " Austin of England " without any model name
23/07/2015 @ 04:49:14: Baube: interesting/funny/special cars sightings
here is the back of it if it help

When have you been there? Me, my wife and her little niece last Sunday around Noon :smile: We went for a three-day-trip to the Disney Resort near Paris. I'll contribute a few pics, but later. Except work- and family-stress I'm still very groggy after this over-sounded, over-coloured, all-around-sugar-sweet merchandising hell.
The hell for adults, but the heaven for kids. But interesting to see anyways.

When we lived in America we avoided Disney Land at all costs...

20 to 22 July, I went with a friend to a house-warming party, of friends who recently bought a holiday cottage in the middle of nowhere in France (Indre department)
