Vehicles you don't see on the road anymore

As I've never seen any of his videos, I couldn't say for sure. A quick search indicates he did something with a Model T.
While built in the same manner and with the same materials as the original cars were, that's a Pursang Type 35 and will only set you back $250k, a real Type 35 is probably up to 8x that.
Yeah, that's not a Bugatti, looks like VW front suspension there...
He's supposed to destroy a modern Bugatti at some point. The fake old one was given to him as a joke. It's only a matter of time before a real Bugatti dies.
I promise I won't...but someone else might...
Always the polished statesman ! , Hey , I just remembered someone else who likes Mercedes Benz , maybe I'll ask him ..... Oh never mind.......
Speaking of the two groceries here, I snapped this in the parking lot of the other one...a series 2 Lotus Elise. Actually got to speak with the owner briefly. Always had a thing for these.

Did you ask him if he's expecting to get stuck?
I thought it was either one of the "pull-gears" from a Smash-Up Derby set...
...or a pacifier...
He probably takes it to a track and they have a rule about needing a recovery point.

Did you ask him if you could sit in the car as a test fit ?
I've seen quite a number of "cars you don't see anymore" since this thread started but I can never get a pic due to driving. Of course it's pretty common to see old cars and trucks here that are original due to our climate, so there are a lot of cars that you don't see anymore that we still see. I see old Beetles nearly every day. On Saturday I saw 3 pristine looking 1950's era Shelby Cobras cruising down Speedway Boulevard here in Tucson.
I don't know a lot about them though. I do remember seeing one burn in a fire near my house when I was about 14 or 15. It had been sitting on blocks outside a repair shop and they couldn't get it moved away from the building in time. Below is a random internet pic.

Super cool!! It looks like they intended it to look like a little wind up toy.
Spoken like a man of average height...short ass...
You can forget driving a flat fender Jeep , as a man of average height , I feel I have to lift my left knee past my ear get my foot on the clutch pedal.
Thank you for the insight Lurch ....

I was under the impression this was an inclusive website, I had not expected the height-shaming. I think I might be offended...but I have to check with my therapist first...

Wait, we're the normal strong healthy specimens. It's the short people who are the freaks.
Says the feller who short-shamed us normal-height (NORMAL, not freakish) mortals….

Yes....over the years, attempts at convincing others that my height was an indication of a more evolved human being, potentially on the cusp of an advanced life form, have been met with precisely 100% disregard. How rude.
