1971 Triumph Stag

1962 Cadillac Coupe de Ville

Wedged between a Yaris and a Bolar, another tight situation allowing no profile shot.

Particularly like the "fetlocks" -- the lower fins projecting from behind the front wheels, through the great fender skirts to the bumper. They look positively dangerous. And the grille-like panel between the bumper and trunk lid.

1985 Ford LTD LX

I had not realized that the car you see was kind of special for technical reasons until I looked it up. The blacked out grille and faded red stripe hidden in the side strip should have tipped me off. I hope it is just awaiting restoration under it's guardian motion sensor light.

What with constrained space and steel barrel, I could not get a proper profile, or a shot of the "LTD LX" badge on the trunk lid.

1984 Chevrolet S-10 Extended Cab

Don't understand how the tires are so clean (looking).

1969 Oldsmobile Cutlass

Not sure if it is uneven paint or uneven dirt that makes the left fenders so much lighter in colour. But the tires seem perfectly clean. Love the script used for the badge, and the way the rust/mould has surrounded and obscured it. Plus that profile -- very sporty for what amounts to a mid-sized, mid priced sedan.

1979 Chevrolet Corvette + 1973 Ford Ranger Super Camper Special

As promised, the other two vehicles of interest visible in the background of the previous post. All in all a remarkable find.

The Corvette looks great, its just that it tries too hard. Earlier generations of the 'Vette never needed front and rear spoilers to look amazing. This is more like marketing than engineering. Of the three, this vehicle seems closest to roadworthy.

Love the Ford's cockeyed headlight, oddly wide rear tires, earnest look, plus the all important fuzzy dice. And how can you not like a vehicle that calls itself "super". There will be more super vehicles here.

Once again, working in a cramped space, so profile shots are nearly impossible. Also I ran up against the 200 character tag limit on this post.

1968 Volvo 122


When I was growing up I saw these Volvos as ugly. Why would anyone make a car like that, much less buy one? Now I wonder at their interesting design. Much like the VW Beetle, it remained unchanged for so long because it performed it's function stylishly and effectively. Doubt this car has ever been restored, just repaired and driven.

Love the front end that looks so long nowadays on a car so short, the small looking cab above the beltline, and the architecture of curves.
