  1. I’m familiar with Chad Hiltz. I didn’t even realize it was the same car just without the bubble haha
    Thanks for the info

    No problem. Just a little change like that can make a big difference at times in recognizing a car when you have it in your mind as something different.

    Doing a quick flip thru here as a recap seeing I haven't been here lately and I believe post #51 is under construction pictures of Chad's car #24 also. .

    No you are looking at car #51 in post 3 on page 1 , go to page 2 post # 51. after the first page people quit numbering the cars and I went by the post count number not by the car number anymore. That is more of chad's car.

    "Apparently it's still in the Milwaukee/ Waukesha area but it's faded from public view ! "

    yes, I used to see it just parked in a parking lot on main street in Waukesha years ago. We are talking about the non bubble car pictured in post # 174. Disappeared when the property got sold.

    I was thinking the last time I saw the x car on Main St. in Waukesha was maybe a little over 10 years ago and that is bout right. I just looked it up and the property it was parked on was sold in 2008.

    I have seen that lawn mower before someplace.

    anyways I wasn't going to say anything but seeing this thread has been bounced back to the front now I will. Ian's space Junkie bubbletop sold Wednesday at the auction for $40,000(without buyers fee)

    When I saw the title, I thought this will be a short thread......of about 10 cars!

    How many of these are MIA and that we might see come from out of the darkness one day?

    Are you expecting to find one outside a strip joint being used as a garbage can in a Mexican town? :)

    That would be hilarious if there wasn't a kernel of truth behind it!

    First one is Barris’s Xpac 400. Built around the same time Roth built Rotar. Rumor has it that the xpac levitated by means of hydraulic cylinders pushing against the floor. They were hidden by the skirt around the bottom....
