Another car from Fla.... What are youguys putting in the water down there???????? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[Plowboy]

Looks like a munstermobile lite.

I particularly like the rearview mirrors. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

[OGNC]

That is the worst thing I have seen in a while!

[marq]

Oh no you don't - we can't take responsibility for those. The first one is from Virginia (check the plate). The second one is from Englewood (close to me) and I've never seen it on the road (Thank goodness), so it was probably also brought down from the North. And, notice the bidder on the yellow one is from Baaston, Ma., so with any luck it will go back where it came from. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

We put whiskey in the water - it helps! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[Bruce Lancaster]

Well, at least the battery mounting is original...

[drgnwgn289]

that sedan evidently has one of those rare 12 cyl. 327s...
and the other....what the fuck?

Welllll to answer your question - uhhhh ....

It's the sun - YEAH that's it - The sun baked there brains -
The second one doesnt need bigger wheels and tires - it needs a crusher!

[hudson_hawk]

nice placement

[Bruce Lancaster]

Yep--he's thinking outside the box...or is it thinking the box outside the car...or...never mind.

[Nads]

It has been my experience that any time a cuddly toy is used as an accoutrement to a car, the said car is always an ugly piece of shit.

[TINGLER]

Jeeez...

That yellow one has been on ebay about 3 times in the last year. Each time it has been a different color. Why the hell are people wasting so much time and money on that nightmare?

I have to admit though that seeing that tweety bird doll in there almost had me hitting the BID NOW button......


..........yeah right! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[haring]

Ah, this thread is a good reminder that it's fun to look at other people's ugly children, which reminds me of an insult that was commonly said to Joe Cherney (who later turned out to be a good friend of mine) in second grade:

"Your mom had diarrhea, and you popped out."

[Revhead]

There is a 12 cyl 327...Jag v-12s were 327s, but that sure as hell doesn't look like one.

[Paul]

The pseudo landau could be saved, maybe take the rest of the top off,
or modify it some more ala the Monkey Mobile or The Lil’ Coffin,

but I don't know if you could save the Teardrop T Bucket..

[TINGLER]

Here is that pile of shit a year ago.

[zgears]

http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif i don't get it. where is this car coming from style wise? 4 pages of bitch'n about "rat rodz" and no one knock's this more common type of garbage. is the shit i truly hate. btw mine's not a rat rod.

[drgnwgn289]

don't make me look ignorant rev!! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

[hankcash]

That car looked cool how it was a year ago, but it was missing one thing!!!!

HC

[DrJ]

It's just so painfully obvious that there are people in the world who will never be so cool and debonair and properly creative, and well, just plain "WITH IT" as "WE" are. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Sometimes I think we should just get over ourselves, soon.

[Paul]

I'm not through gettin over ourselves just yet..

There must be a useable idea in there somewhere..

The external battery for instance,

If it were attached like a drop tank on a P38, once you were up and running you could pull a lever and just let it go, relieving the burden of the excess wind resistance and weight it imposes.

And if you got in a wreck the Tweety Bird could act as an air bag preventing serious bodily injury.

Hell, the color would be like a beacon on a sunny day, it would be virtually impossible to misplace!

there's three, I'm sure there's more..

Paul

[QQMOON]

Well there you go boys and girls. That is the difference between us and them !!!!!!!!!

[DamnitDave]

Bidding $102.50 on the yellow thing... I gotta have me those hubcaps!!!!

[Donzie]

Ok, I'm in.
On the 1st one:
"Vehicle Condition, real nice"
I guess if you don't have anything good to say....
Are those Vega taillights?

On the second one, other than the obvious, I like "starts and drives nice".. If it drives I'm assuming it starts!!
And "33 roaster replica". What part of the car is a '33? '33 WHAT?!?
I think it must be a 1933 Urine 8.

People like this really scare me.

[DamnitDave]

DAMN!!! Outbid... $110.00 I gotta have it!!!!

[DamnitDave]

DAMN, DAMN!!!! Bad Girly is a hard bargainer... $125.00... Whew... Working up a sweat here...

[DamnitDave]

JESUS H. CHRIST!?!?!?

Screw it!!! I'm going for broke... $150.00!!!!

Here Goes!!!!

[DamnitDave]

Too rich for my blood... I'm out.

Good luck happy bidders.

[Kojack]

If anyone bids on those, I've got a visor I'll sell you cheap.

[drgnwgn289]

HAHAHA!!! kojack, you've got the best sense of humor of anyone on here!!

[Phil Stevens]

Thanks for that you guys, I've started the day with a laugh http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif ( it's 9.10 on Thursday here BTW )
Hey NADS you're right about the cuddly toy thing, I never thought about that before.

[Rocky]

I can't believe Hatch didn't photo chop it...I also can't believe I actually wasted my time to even look at that, er...thing.

[injectedA]

Hell, I might bid on the first one.

Sneak it in the neighborhood after dark, waaaaay after dark. Part out the mullet and other non related to that car parts shit. Move the suspension around. Put the top back on. I'll bet your money ahead. Steel body, chassis, wiring, blah, blah, blah.

Come on now, who'd I piss off? You already thought about it. Bet the little fucker goes to 8K. Now you paid to much. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[robber grin]

car # 2 just scares the sh!t outa me...

the hardest part to get around is somebody thought that would be cool.

Oh well. "Do what you can with what you have."

[TheDooWopKid13]

those are aful

[286merc]

The first one has promise, sort of a rodded Ford Brewster but I dont think most of you guys ever heard of one.

The second one certainly belongs in Florida, the builder must have been breathing swamp gas.

[shoebox72]

LMFAO, Those are hillarious. Those guys are for real?
The mirrors on the first one take the CAKE. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif

[Django]

This guy is not to be outdone...

Fucked up '36 Ford (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2458558087&category=67 37) on ebay. WTF was this guy thinking?

http://i1.ebayimg.com/02/i/01/4a/c5/8e_1_s.JPG

[lakes modified]

Wow, what is it they say about being "BUTT UGGLEY" ?, it's in the eye of the beholder ?. It's amazing what a person can do with a few gallons of bondo and sandpaper.



"A dirty mind is a terrible thing to waste"

p.s . put me down for the battery box.

[Unkl Ian]

Is there a committee of blind people out there "designing" cars. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif
I mean,besides the Crack smoking blind drunken Baboons that did the Pontiac Aztec.

[HotRodder31]

Dear Jebus! It's the most horrible looking ride I've ever seen. I guess that Florida sun has them thinking ass backwards or something. Maybe a gator nibbled on his leg and he slipped with the sawzall. Well, for whatever reason, I feel sorry for the winning bidder, and even more sorry that there was a bidder in the first place.

[TheRev]

Thanx BigDaddy ........now my retnas are burnin!!!! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
That 36 should be a ProMod......or maybe it was!! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[Fastsporty]

a little imagination and quick photoshop, I kinda like it.

[The_Monster]

you guys notice the hubcaps on the yellow one turn the opposite ways on either side?

How about three cheers for the universal exposed hinge at the trunk.

[haring]

Some'n wrong with you, boy.

That '36 could at least be saved. Change the hood scoop to Hilborn injection, chrome reverse wheels with whitewalls, metalflake paint, and you've got yourself a '60s show rod.

as if the outside aint bad enough....

[30roadster]

tell me thats a taxi from the philipines- plez http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

[Oilcan Harry]

I prefer the blue POS look to the yellow POS look. Of course they both suck.

[Ragtop]

People are actually bidding on these things!

[Action Girl]

What the hell kinda flames are those on that first abomination? It's like someone hit two cans of paint going down the road...

Eeessh...

[Action Girl]

Please explain the lime green door jambs, "eyes" on the front and those ghastly tail lights on that 36...

My gawd!

Stop them! Stop them NOW!

[Spitfire1776]

The first one looks like someone has a certain fetish for the Munster Koach, but didn't know how to express it properly.

[34 GAZ]

The first one ain,t to bad really,The fresh paint kills it.
The yellow one would probably be a nice ride if the body
were to be trashed and replaced by a replica cobra or other
kitcar body.Thats probably what the chassis was originaly
built for.See the drivers view pic.The radiator frame is
more than 1 inch higher on the right hand side.Maybe the
guy is just crosseyed and colour blind.
