The "Interesting Cars Found on eBay" thread

Crazy? No way, that thing is very cool.

 

I saw this at the Grand National Roadster Show back in January. This is 1 awesome Rod.

 

yeah..the fire truck looks neat till you put a normal sized person in it,,,andre the giant is the proper scale..

ouch! i missed an early cb93 benly ss..with original so cal dealer sticker on it!!

 

Very cool.

A friend here in SA has one of these, started out with the full length La France chassis and is now probably the shortest one around. Open exhaust, 14 litres displacement straight six, it's a blast! He also changed the gearing (sprockets) and keeps up with traffic in the fast lane and then some.

 

Only the ssShadow knows......

Wow! There's more than just a trace of Vignale's Maserati Mexico in those cars (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Maserati_Mexico.jpg). Never really thought of that before...

You could be right, Japanese designers from that era seem to love copying elements from cars already in production. Personally, I see Chevy II Nova . Nissan was guilty of designing some of world's most hideous cars late mid 70's imho.

 

1983 Ferrari LC2 Group C

Great looking car...some race history.

That thing was fast in Group C iirc. I suppose Lancia were on a budget at the time, I don't remember ever hearing of a second team car, I believe it was always a lone entry.

I remember my father taking us to see the only WSC race held in Montreal. Seats were plentiful at CGV and the cars were spectacular (don't think this Lancia was entered). Damn sewer cover welds were too weak and the race ended early, fortunately without a fatality (although it was close).

 

Actually, a good batch of those LC2s were made by Lancia; 9 in total (http://wsrp.ic.cz/chassis/chassis_lancia.html).

That's pretty cool! Price seems high to me.... but not all that familiar with the model so
I'm probably the one out of line.
