That is the perfect example of "Rear Overhang" that all these Ghetto kids talk about when they see older Cadillacs and Lincolns. Who would have imagined it would be on a Chebby.
I knew you would. It's Orange, a V8, a Chevrolet and just a bit odd. If I encounter the owner, I will ask him what he wants for it.
Realistically, it shouldn't be much.
It must be interesting to make turns in...not because of the length, but from the driver's point of reference, which is several feet BEHIND the rear axle, it would be a rather unique feeling. Like the Nausea Seat in a Station Wagon, but a thousand times cooler.
Personally, while it is not my style, I can respect the creativity. I couldn't drive it though, because the hills where I live are common and steep. That thing cannot be expected to drive up one, even with a bagged rear end.
Just imagine it though...
Rainy day, empty parking lot...
Imagine doing doughnuts in it...
I have never thrown up...from anything...but if that ride makes you throw up, remind me not to sit with you, when we have our Hershey Park Cadillac Owner's Gathering...
That's a thing now...someone organize it.
I would but I am in Central Florida/South Nevada most of the time and all we have is Walt Disney World, which pales in comparison to Hershey Park.
My Aunt posted some pictures today reminding me that my Gram worked at Rosies Diner before I was born during the time they did the Bounty Commercials there and ect.
Having done time in the "Garden State" a couple of times in my life and having (hopefully)been forever linked to Jersey through marriage, I can say that one of the great institutional joys of the place is the diner. In my experience New Jersey's diners consistently produce very good food at reasonable prices. The deep fried seafood I have had, over the years, at diners in New Jersey has been equal to the best I have had anywhere. And thanks to Greek proprietors these establishments have made many of New Jersey's attributes, at least, tolerable.
I must say that whatever makes New Jersey diners special does not travel well. There were a couple of diners, complete with stainless train car-esque styling and run by Greeks near me in Northern Virginia that looked like the real McCoy but just were not up to Jersey standards and very much lacking in Jersey taste.

From the perspective of today those early fifties Hudsons were pretty impressive automobiles. Unfortunately the ever present need to conform kept the "Big Three" showrooms buzzing while you could fire a canon through a Hudson showroom with impunity. Despite stock car racing dominance, Hudson's lack of a V-8 didn't help with their sales numbers.
Made my reservations at the Autograph Collection: Hotel Adagio in downtown San Francisco/ Union Square for Pride in June. I'm very excited! It's a beautiful hotel.
Sprayed GM odor eliminator through the cowl 15 sprays and vents 5 sprays each in my 2014 ATS loaner car during my lunch.
Besides this car being the filthiest car I have ever been in it is also the worst assembled ATS I have ever been in and it doesn't even have 1000 miles on it.
*Edit thought this was the what did you do to your car today thread lol
One of my close friends was at the hospital with girl friends dad over Christmas and he thought it was a good idea to eat some...followed by a cheeseburger from the machine. He was sick for 2 weeks I bet, Never saw someone that sick.
I got that myself from bad vending machine snack food a few years back when traveling. Spent half vacation in the can. I won't even eat chips out of them any more...I get the shakes just thinking about it I was that sick. Luckily it hit just before we got there...notice I said just before...
^^^ Just think when some future archaeologist comes across that stained glass window and speculates on what it could mean. He may not be far from the truth!
