    This must be later than '34. Note the cars (especially the Cord). It must be late '36 or early '37 is my guess.

    Seriously, WTF is going on here?
    The car on the right is standing on its nose, but it doesn't look like it's hit anything, and there's no way it could have stood on its nose from those monster brakes (that appear not to exist anyway).
    The two dudes (ex-passengers) are well and truly flying, and the laws of physics don't lie - something must have caused it....................
    No, wait, has someone photoshopped this.....????????
    Hmmmmmmmmmmm?????????????????
     
  8. I would like to see how that drive system is hooked up! Looks like the Motor drive the Harley trans. somehow...

    After going on one of those ancestry sites, MATER (the tow truck in Disney's Cars movie) was able to find this photo of his great grandfather.
