I figured it was a riviera but never looked at it deeply. On the other side of his shop building is a firebird super duty. He has cool stuff

That's a 1963 or 1964 Buick Riviera.  The headlights were hidden in 1965.  This guy has a Super Duty sitting outside?  If it's a real one, he's nuts to leave it out in the elements.

Fort Findlay, the 56 Chevy above was taken on the other side of that lot.

I moved here in late 06 and tried to buy it every year since. I can't afford it anymore but it's been there alongside the shop all that time.

 '55. And hot.

My wife and I spotted these two not far from home:

For a side street that really doesn't go anywhere, there seem to be plenty of interesting rides that travel past my house.  (Quite a few ask about my hoard, do that may be part of it)

This Olds just came by minutes ago, and I barely had time to get the phone out of my pocket to take a photo. 

The Tristate never fails to deliver some interesting stuff.  

almost missed this one

the Bentley was at the VW dealer in Perrysburg Ohio, heckuva trade in.

Saturday, on the way home from the hardware store in my jag, while stopped at a red light.

There aren't a lot of those driving around anymore!

Up here in the North Country today at a local watering hole.

thing was nice!

My 15yo daughter sent me this

In reply to chandler :

I haven't seen a drivable Encore/ Alliance in a decade. That should be in the Unicorn thread, along with the pic from your daughter.

dont see many w126 around these days

I think these were on fiat 850 chassis.

There's a reason Olds never offered the wing on convertibles.

It doesn't look right. Yet, probably half of them that remain have had them added.

No time to get the camera out.

Saw a second generation Ranger towing a long, thin aluminum boat.

The floating device had  "CƏN-U" on both sides of the stern.

Th3 Bentley is probably getting fixed there.  It's the same thing as a vw phaeton.   I imaging it is easier finding a vw dealer than a Bentley dealer to get service done.

I have been working on a project for a GRM/Classic Motorsports advertiser about 20 miles from my home. The commute is all back road, even goes past the Nonack Rally Team world headquarters, and a lot of other car stuff, some pictured below.

I love those firebirds, best looking car of the gen in my opinion.
