Car Spotting

**joeb** · 27 Jun 2022, 19:49 (Ref:4117265)

I looked around and couldn't find a thread exactly like this. The purpose is to post pictures of cars you see "in the wild". What kinds of cars you want to snap a picture of is up to you. It could be a rare car, or something exotic, or something modified, or anything that makes you smile. I'll start.

Beat up old Honda Accord which had apparently towed and launched a boat.

Old pickup with an old camper top at the grocery store parking lot.

The Rebel fleet has fallen in to disrepair

Great thread

They all look like cars that people have got some good use out of! You’re in charge of your own life with a camper like that!

I saw this beauty in a cinema car park. Had they also gone to watch Maverick?

And they say car parking spaces aren’t big enough for modern cars. Although I don’t think they mean length!

And that is a coupe! Think how long the 4 door version would be!

He said 'car'. Not boats

Sweet Jeebus, that's a monster!!

And agreed. Excellent thread idea. I do this all the time. Will look through the roll for my last....

Okay, so I have a lot but they were from a car show I went to where there was hundreds of not thousands of neat machines everywhere and that's cheating. However, I did get a pic of a early 70s Suburban on the high banks....

And the other was seen on LM weekend walking back from dinner. Was decided by others that this was the NASCAR Le Mans entry out for a shakedown.

Almost looks Forest Service Green, but I'm sure either JH or broad know the specific Mopar color from that year....

Yes those are curtains on the inside of the windows, and no i don't understand why they would be needed. Unless they conduct a certain "business" in the backseat. Possibly a very old, if not the oldest, business in the world.

Since we are just starting it is ok to dig in to your archives. This one needs no explanation.

On the banking. Nice.

I once took an electric smart on a test track in Germany. Had it right up to the top of the banking.

Also in Germany I once saw a Golf (I think) with the stick “porn Mum” on it. Years ago I’ll look for the photo…

Not so remarkable. Except I was in Florida at the time. A long way from its home.

broadrun96 · 29 Jun 2022, 11:45 (Ref:4117441)

Damn, I'll have to mount the phone higher now in the car. But I'm in Buckhead and NW Atlanta so I'll have to look for the old VGG classics over newer stuff.

Sadly the Bentley and Rolls "SUV" are becoming common

It was probably stolen!

**joeb** · 30 Jun 2022, 00:27 (Ref:4117533)

Got this one today. Two tone baby blue on top of Gray, with a matching two level topper full of windows. It probably can't haul anything and definitely can't tow anything but it looks sweet.

sent during haircut

**Adam43** · 30 Jun 2022, 00:53 (Ref:4117535)

Need!

No interesting cars today for me

all dull.

**Adam43** · 30 Jun 2022, 02:03 (Ref:4117539)

But from the archives on my phone.

Someone who knows what’s going on in their life and why they can have this color scheme.

I see your Mazda or Isuzu or Dodge or all of the above and raise you this sweet ******* (from the archives), found in the North Ga woods, in its natural place, on blocks, with wood supports. I can smell it from here!

Nice entrée, and I bet that comes with a side of restraining order.

Spotted today, one had been sent around but others here should see it too

Healey was better than the LandCruiser, lots of rust bubbles on her.

Missed getting a picture of a beautiful conversion, looked like a Crown Vic made into a modern Ranchero. I'll keep my eyes out for it, she was a beaut Clark, a beaut.

**joeb** · 1 Jul 2022, 14:10 (Ref:4117716)

Typically not a modern f150 fan. But this looks pretty good. Actually reminds me more of a bronco than the current model.
