The front end looks a little like a locomotive front end with a cowcatcher. Odd but I like it.
I recently did some work in Odell Illinois, where there is this beautifully restored 1932 Standard Oil station.
... if it's the last thing I ever do. I can't help but notice that the brakes are never mentioned. What happens when you pull a parachute at the...
I love the ventilated fenders. I don't think I've seen that detail before.
How many people can say they drove a dragster into a concrete wall at full power and lived to tell about it. Sheesh.

I can't seem to match the numbers to anything on that list, but I did find a reference to part 9779082 being the exhaust manifold for a 1968...
I looked up the definitions and I stand corrected!
Shipping not included! Thanks! I swear this place is the borg collective of automobile knowledge!

This is very cool. Just as an idle thought, you could build it like the Dymaxion car, two front wheels, one rear wheel. That car was very...
