I'm with you, man. Huge engines require huge frames and bodies. Swell photos. Thanks for posting 'em.
So is that why in New England states the old bridge is left standing when a new bridge is built to replace it? All the old bridges were too well...
Did you see this pedal/cycle car? Posted on another thread here by (I think) T-Head. Wrong: 'twas Twin6. No slight was intended to either party....
I am thinking the same thing. And more, what if someone like Roger Penske would tackle the land-speed records. Not with a jet or rocket, but with...
Any chance you know what car is beside the Doozie?
I visited the Owl's Head Transportation Museum in Maine just a month ago and saw this 1898 cyclecar. Sorry the info card is not sharp; just a...
Kid's either got a really long left leg, or he's run someone down. BS
Wow! This is great! Next time my wife calls me an old fart--and it'll be sometime today, I guarantee you--I can tell her authoritatively that I am...

My Plymouth two-door sedan was born in 1941. I was born in 1944. We aren't too far apart in age. Here's a picture of us in about 1980, when we...
I haven't met anyone from the HAMB, and I haven't been to the museum. Have been to the City View...:eek: Looking forward to this event. BS
FWIW Here's the official Schocharie Ridge snowstick, bottomed against the asphalt--asphalt that was clear and dry at sundown yesterday. Reading...
Boy, this is a tough one, isn't it? Like most of you, I've got lots of 35mm slides and b&w negs that I exposed in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. My old...
Thanks for the link. Great stuff. I see answers to quite a number of my questions on constructing a wooden car body. BS
Haven't built a woodie. But the topic really interests me (I'm a longtime woodworker) and I've been collecting info on woodie construction. Thank...
Greetings from the northern edge of the Lehigh Valley. Have fun here! BS
How about this one? BS
KUDOs man. Looks like great fun. Thanks too for the link to the magazine website. I feel its siren call.... BS

Congrats to the parents first, of course, then to you and your wife. It'll be a great ride, bein' a Gramps. BS
Great thread, with wonderful photos. Makes me want to share a few shots I took back in the day--CanAm at Watkins Glen in 1969. BS
Hello from the Lehigh Valley. Really cool car. As a woodworker of sorts, I am very impressed with the dash. Those Brits know their way with wood....
I got introduced to Tesla and his world by a novel titled The Invention of Everything Else by Samantha Hunt. After reading that, I wanted to sort...
I really like that. Can we see some more photos of the car? Is that representative of a model that Ford made and sold? Or your own creation?...
I'm in Kempton, the real site of Hawk Mountain (I can see it from my yard). BS
Wow!! I work wood from time to time, and I've often hankered to tackle some sort of woodie. I'm really impressed with your craftsmanship. What's...
This is a good question, and I'm glad the replies got past the snark and provided a bunch of examples. I especially like Archie's Speedster and...
I have enjoyed this thread. I first got my driver's license behind the wheel of a '53 Pontiac and spent a couple of high-school summers in the...
