Even crazier, I think it's been repainted at least once!

Sacriledge!

Merciful Heaven! What a glorious motor.

Is that a motor or is it a dining table? Regardless of which, it is certainly clean enough to eat off of it! LOL.

I hope we can all agree that a Clenet is NOT a gentleman's motor car. Nor is an Excalibur, or anything with a fiberglass body and a VW chassis.

ABSOLUTLY!

A very good friend of mine has dabbled in the kit car world. He hangs with Excalibur and Panther owners a bit. Here is his project:

OMG! Airbrushed van murals. I remember those . . .

Alfa Romeo!

And MGA

And, of course, the obligatory Woodie!

How about an MGA Coupe. The doors are so small only a wee man could drive it.

True that. I have a friend who is about 6'3" and the only sportscar he can fit into is a Porsche. So he owns one.
