Spotted this one over on the 24 Hours of Lemons forums, but its not getting the attention it deserves. Besides being a very rare (for the USA) 1957 British Ford Anglia wagon, it also features a full tubular header and a canvas sunroof over the entire passenger compartment! On top of all that it belonged […]
UPDATE: No longer for sale at the moment For sale, ready to race for $4000, also available to rent for photo shoots, motion picture, music video or commercial work, but I will be coming along to babysit. Have you heard about the 24 Hours of Lemons endurance racing series? Its real wheel to wheel endurance […]
I feel like I tracked a rare wild species to its breeding ground. I bet the owner found something to love on every aisle.
I can’t take credit for this it was tweeted, and on the BCAS earlier today, but here is is in all its glory a Cowboy Cadillac that seems to have driven thru the J.C.Whitney warehouse attracting accessories. I’m going to start with my favorite picture because it is the wrongest of them all. Despite what […]
Have you heard of the 24 Hours of Lemons? No, not LeMans, the city in France, lemons, the citrus fruit, or in the vernacular, horrible cars that can’t be fixed and nobody wants. Years ago an automotive magazine writer with a sense of humor created a race for cars that don’t belong on a racetrack, […]
Some people claim 24 Hours of Lemons is a waste of good cars, but wouldn’t you rather see this 1970 Ford Mustang running around a road course than running errands to Home Depot, where I shot this? It looks as if someone in high school in 1981 tricked this thing out with shackles, big wide […]
At this point we have less than a week until the 24 Hours of Lemons Sears Pointless and the car still doesn’t run. At this point failure is not an option. If I can’t make it run today, and make the tranny go into at least 1, 2 and 3 there is no time. I […]
I have been spending a lot of time in the junkyards again, because we have a 24 Hours of Lemons race coming up 3/23-24, and we had a little problem last race. At the Sun Valley home of Jaws I found this slightly toasty Pontiac. If he had bought a Thunderbird all he’d have is […]
Spotted this beautiful old land yacht at the local self serve lot (the one with the last of the Jaws sharks). As near as I can tell it was either someone’s homemade version of the Griswold’s Wagon Queen Family Truckster, or it was made here in Hollywood for a commercial or music video, or something […]
