That red '62 Austin-Healey Sprite a neighbour was selling last year is for sale again. I saw it sitting in front of his house today.
Based on the headlights, a 2nd generation (1957-59) Ford Fairlane. I wouldn’t have known the model if I hadn’t been able to read the nameplate.
And this evening, an old beater early 1970s Nova four door sedan. It looked pretty original even thought it wasn’t in such great shape. Kind of reminded me of the car Eddy Murphy’s character drove in Beverly Hills Cop, except I looked it up and the car in the movie was a two door and had a landau top, although it was the same color as the one I saw.
Not today, but last week:
A Frazer
A Jaguar XF wagon, all black, like this image — https://tinyurl.com/y33uore4.
Beautiful!
^^Hey, I saw one of those just yesterday! I was very surprised to see it was a Jag.
Also yesterday, a Messerschmitt Kabinenroller KR200. Easily the weirdest looking car I seen since Homer Simpson designed the Homermobile.
Was Jonathan Pryce driving it?
And I saw a Jaguar XJ L this morning. From the front they look somewhat similar to the latest Lincolns, so I thought maybe it was one of those at first, until it got close enough for me to see it definitely didn’t have a Lincoln badge and realized it was a Jag.
A 1st generation Mercury Cougar, looked like someone’s daily summer drive. Very understated beige color; who would want a beige musclecar?
Another Ferrari this morning, an older one this time. As I’ve said before I’m not all that well versed on exotics, but after looking at various 1980s and 90s models on Wikipedia my best guess is that it was a 348. It was red, of course.
[wrong thread]
Nah, it was parked in someone’s yard. Perhaps he was in the house.
I asked if there was an article with the photo, but apparently not. All I know is that it happened in England.
A 2nd generation (1953-56) Ford F-series pickup, parked on the street in Harvard Square. It was lovingly restored, looked showroom ready.
Yesterday, walking thru the parking lot of my local CVS Pharmacy, saw a dark blue late-model minivan with lettering on the side stating “Umbrella Corporation” alongside the red & white umbrella logo (Writing & logo on both sides, neatly done).
Admittedly it did take a few seconds for me to think Resident Evil (and no, this was not Raccoon City)
Saw a 1990s Oldsmobile Silhouette yesterday. I recall people comparing it to Dustbusters and doorstops back in the day.
n/m
A mid-70 Pontiac LeMans
BTW…the Olds Silhouette more resembles a Starfleet Shuttle
My work car. It’s a white Dodge Durango with tinted windows and semi-police package.
I dropped it off for annual PM 2 weeks ago, and I picked it back up today.
I missed it so.
Yesterday I was on my way to work. A blue Maserati came off the highway and swerved into my lane. I slowed & honked. A hand in the window then waived for me to pass. (That is a silly thing to do.) It was a lady in full gown and face covering. Further, she followed me through at least two checkpoints. She wasn’t in a hurry she was just a bad driver.
