Muffler leaves a little to be desired but the rest is poifekt.

Eww, the front.

I’m no fan of the beak on the RX3, it reminds me of the beak on the 2nd Gen. Camaro, which is also terrible.  Still, slap an 808 front on and you’ve got a winner of all and everything.

Further from the previous entry, here’s some more of the wonderful cars and pieces of machinery on display;

From a time when an Estate was the size of an Estate.

This Edsel is awesome, weird lines from the sedan seem to suit the estate down do the ground, which is convenient because that’s pretty close to where this goon is sitting, wearing his slot-mags of bogan.  You could house an entire family in this estate on and still have enough room for the help.

Cars from a simpler, more mobster time.

How cool would it be to hang off the side of this with a Tommy-Gun?  The answer?  STUPENDOUSLY COOL!  There’s a Thunderbird in the background that would make a perfect shooting target.

I received these photos from Steve (nzmax, fellow 1st Gen. Prince Skyline owner) the other day and thought that I would throw them online to share with you guys.  This is what eventuates when circumstances change and you have to relocate a few classic Prince vehicles.  The image with the most impact is definitely this one of one BLSID-3 towing a Skyway W21B-4 on a trailer;

Utilising 1900cc of 4-cylinder OHV magic, the 4-wheel drums could be sketchy...

That’s not to say this following ones are any less amazing moments in time, of course.  For instance, this shot of an S21S-4 Skyline on a trailer being towed by a 1963 Pontiac Laurentian has it’s own levels of lovely.

Needs a little work, one careful lady owner?

This Sunday been (06/02) saw a myriad of machinery parked and placed for all to ogle.  The following pictures of said event were taken by one K-trips (Mr. Smith) and one Mr. Nate Mitchinson big-ups to these chaps for sharing them with me and in turn you lovely readers of this meager blogsicle.  I’ll start the viewing with my favourite of the selection…

Roadrunner, if he catches you... ..well... ...he won't catch you.

As K-tripleThreat stated after he shared this photo, what makes this car is the utilised look.  It’s badass and it’s used as a car, not a trophy or lah-de-dah symbol of snobbery.    The Globe alloy and tyre combo look staunch as shit and decent on something other than the standard Falcon fare they’re normally found on.  Just outright awesome.  Love it.

S to the lammed. Smooth and Sweet.

This was another that caught my eye as a standout.  Carry-on for more pictures of it and some of the other masses of metal that took part…
