blog.1aauto.com is giving Hooniverse competition on great stories and interesting rare stuff, like this red Delorean, and 76 Road Runner

In 1982, Delorean Cadillac in Cleveland Ohio had some Delorean’s on the lot that they were having trouble selling. Rather than giving them away at a loss or sitting on them forever, they decided they might sell if they were more colorful. The problem is painting stainless. So Delorean Cadillac had PPG come up with a paint that would adhere to the stainless. They succeeded and before long, several DMC’s were painted a variety of fun colors like red, purple, and blue. http://blog.1aauto.com/2011/06/30/you-want-to-see-the-candy-apple-red-delorean/#more-6395

Julian Annual Motoring Classic






this is a Chrysler from Symbolic

Those Keystone Classics are terrific looking. I recall admiring them when in the mid 1970's
The above is a Ural with a sidecar






No idea why the Bombardier has Ferrari all over it, but nice matching helmets

Damn nice Road Runner, with a better pistol grip shifter than mopar ever thought of

First bit of awesome, hood pins. Simple, and tell everyone right away you mean business

440 with better cam and roller rockers, headers and MSD ignition, rebuilt brakes and new booster with additional vacuum pump



New aluminum radiator with hand made aluminum shroud




Sweet steering wheel and tach

great gauge set where the factory radio used to be


And that great pistol grip





New seat belts, pivot mounted to the roof where the original optional shoulder belt was mounted







275 40/20s. That is a big tire, and gives this RR a great looking stance

Terrific stereo and speaker system, Rockford Fosgate and custom trunk sides



this photo was taken at a car show a couple years ago, notice the cop hub caps and beauty rings instead of the new 20 inch rims
