Octopus Magic posted:Technically the famous red "motorcycle" from akira would be a scooter too. Technically, how? The only scooter feature that comes to mind that sort of fits is that one's feet go inside the frame (but one also straddles the frame, so it's a draw) tire size? probably not a scooter engine performance? not a scooter handling? not a scooter clutch? I don't know. Maybe the Akira 'bike has a CVT?

Gay Nudist Dad posted:none of your criteria really work. That was my (poorly made) point. There is no 'technical' definition of scooter, just a bunch of fuzzy characteristics that usually work pretty well in a general sense but are weighted differently by each different person. *Some statutes do have technical definitions, like 100cc or smaller AND top speed less than 50 mph is a scooter for tax and licensing requirements.

nm posted:Google tells me the truck is from Phoenix. I thought he (and his truck and cars1) were out of Vegas2. e: footnotes, thought to be rendered obsolete by hyperlinking 1. This link has lots of great pictures of great rat rods, including the truck under discussion3, done by Steve Darnell/Welderup. 2. This link is a nice article about Steve Darnell, who owns Welderup. The article mentions that Welderup Hot Rod & Fab Shop is in Las Vegas. (Though the shop was in Billings, MT until 2009) Because one can infer from the article that Darnell's cars roll, the statement in the article that the shop is in SW Las Vegas is of questionable reliability. Because cars drive. 3.  joat mon fucked around with this message at 18:59 on Oct 24, 2012 |

VikingSkull posted:What [Pagani] nail is the extravagance, the presence of a supercar. That interior is like a Swiss pocketwatch, it's exquisite, it's a literal work of art. Pagani makes works of art, emotional cars that require the owner or spectator to think about what they are viewing, or driving. It's more than just being fast or handling, it's more than being exclusive, or offering exclusive levels of performance at a price for the everyman. They are more "super" than almost any other supercar can lay claim to, and god do I love them for that. While Rococo is a legitimate art style, God it's ugly.

A Baha racer using the engine, transmission, suspension, brakes and steering from a DS  Ratroen:   This one hasn't gotten enough love. It's as if in 1968, the Camaro guys came to the Corvair guys and said, "Look; I know we ripped off the Camaro's styling from you, but we're selling more than you, so Roche says Corvair has to change its look." So Corvair went to Bertone and turned out this beauty. 1969 Mazda R130

CharlesM posted:My dad spotted this Pontiac Tempest and was curious what year it is. I know it's 61-63, but was curious if there are differences year to year? It's a 61 or 62. The 63 did not have that full-length fold at the top of the body. A '63:  The 61 had a separate grille around each headlamp cluster, the 62 added grille in the middle of the two to make it full-width.  The '63 had a different grille, too.

It looks more like a nice old 5000 with a new bumper/chin bodywork. VVVVV I don't think the lights, grill or hood are right for a V8. (But the chin bodywork is) joat mon fucked around with this message at 18:56 on Sep 16, 2013 |

The Midniter posted:I wish I had stopped to take a picture, but I went to a wedding in CT a couple weeks ago. The route from Bradley Airport to the wedding in Lakeville had me driving through some pretty rural parts of CT. Along the way, I passed this Alfa Romeo garage that must've had ten or twelve Alfas of various models and eras parked outside. If I wasn't already running late, I definitely would've stopped to take a picture, and I wish I had. If you check the route Google Maps gives you from Bradley to Lakeville, anyone have any idea of the name of this place?  http://www.alfasunlimited.com/about.html
