A Trolley hit this car, makes me wonder how often that happened
the type of Trolley I'm referring to is the electric streetcar before they were all disposed of in favor of gross polluting GM busses http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2010/07/wouldnt-city-transportation-be-more.html no joke, the lobbyists for GM (biggest corporation in the world at that time) convinced the national senators and congressmen that the electric streetcars were worse than diesel busses that tear up the asphalt at intersections because of their weight, and pollute the air

Real unusual things from trailer washers, motorized wheels, to tank track Rolls Royces
Never seen one before, and something about the age of a black and white photo tells me that these are obsolete
I have no idea at all what this is
Ok, but why take it out if you have to add skis?
Really early car phone
Odd stuff on this tow truck
Yup... 1890's and I have no idea what it is
Lenin's 1922 Rolls Royce Silver Ghost
I've never seen a photo of a tractor involved in a car crash
Again, no idea what the motorbike in front is
Never seen a train engine like this... must be for moving train cars around in a train yard
For packing dirt roads?
Early Daytona Beach racers with superchardged Auburns, before NASCAR took over racing on Daytona Beach

Two of the rare Jeeps the (1959) FC 59, but the below is even more rare

Love the motor wheels... I'd so love to ride one! This one was investigated by Hemmings Blog and you can read more about it: http://blog.hemmings.com/index.php/2010/11/22/m-goventosas-one-wheel-to-obscurity/ it went 93mph... I doubt that anyone did that more than once given the conditions of roads in Italy in 1931 to 1933, that's when the above photo was taken, 1931
Puegeot in 1934, great designed car, looks like the top is coming down
Wipers on the inside and outside
Holiday warning about driving
Please, take care of yourself. A recent joint study conducted by the Department of Health and the Department of Motor Vehicles indicates that 23% of traffic accidents are alcohol related.
This means that the remaining 77% are caused by assholes who drink bottled water, Starbucks, soda, juice, energy drinks and shit like that. Therefore, beware of those who do not drink alcohol. They cause three times as many accidents.
This message is sent to you by my buddy Mike who is a drinker and worries about your safety.
Happy Holidays!
Hear that screaming? Hear the cry of outrage? Yup, they just looked at this GT500 Shelby Mustang Cobra on a junkyard heap of junk cars. The point is
that this should get us fired up, like when Car Craft once had a photo of a Camaro that was being eaten by the jungle slowly... and the submission was accompanied by the phrase "we lost one, but let it be remembered by saving others" (Adam Rosenbaum, Portland Maine)

it reminded me of
that I posted a couple years ago http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2008/12/no-one-will-likely-ever-know-what.html
Everybody looks at train wrecks, only some train wrecks make us wonder how they happened!
Wonder how these two happened!
