Thought i would start this thread on things that are spotted while out on your daily chores.It can be anything from a racecar being towed down the motorway,something in someones shed,a customised car gone bad,anything rare or even funny.I spot alot of stuff on any given day some cool some strange.So lets see what is out there. . .

This is something i spotted a while back when given a mate a lift,it didnt take us long to work out what it was. I took these photos on my phone and thats when the owner saw us and had a chat,i will give details out abit later.

Can't wait for the answer to "why?"

[Oldfart]

That is almost as ugly as Lady Penelopes' car, wait a bit, it is as ugly!

[Rod Grimwood]

What else would you do with a 5

[Spgeti]

That is butt ugly....but I suppose the owner loves it...!!!!

[shellsport]

Almost as ugly as the creation of a engishman called John Dodd , I had in a 70,s magazine " Hot Car " with a Rolls Royce grill and Merlin powered . Man those poms had / have some weird ideas on " Hot rods " !

[Michael Clark]

Loos like Harris Road East Tamaki

on the subject of Poms and Hot Rods - Triumph Mayflower anyone ?

[thunder427]

..apart from the Bentley Mesh grill, I actually like that 'Flower'!...Different, even if its deemed 'Ugly', a shit load of quality workmanship has gone into this 'Green Machine' !!!......................MJ

I think this car is absolutely perfect and well proportioned .
The Packard style front from the 30s.
The headlamps flow right to the rear wheel arches.
This truly is a magnificent work of art .
Never tire of looking at this as the knife edge coachwork is so complex.

Wow, love that Triumph. Be interesting to know what powers it.

Yeah thats right Mazda MX5. . .powered by Jag V12 was talking to the owner and he said did all the work himself and is building up a new Jag V12 this time twin turbo.And yes Harris Rd East Tamaki

[Rod Grimwood]

It is certainly different.

[Spgeti]

The Triumph is certainly cool.....top chop really suits it and the Hemi......

[Rod Grimwood]

Not a car but, dropped into a mates workshop while down North Shore on Tuesday and a guy had bought one of his collections to show him.

I did not believe my eyes when I saw it.

This was the bees knees in 1974

It IS new 1974 Kawasaki Z1 900

[Rod Grimwood]

Beautiful.

[John McKechnie]

A beautitul addition to any serious collectors mancave, a fine investment.
Was the bees knees then, still does it for me now
Exactly the same colour as my 1974 Kawasaki 750 H2B

[ElCoyote]
