Re: Baby You Can Drive My Car...
I have no idea what this is.
It is built on a Karmann Ghia chassis with Ghia running gear, engine etc. But many fiberglass add ons and I am not sure why.
For the record, here is a regular Karmann Ghia, a cute little car.

Re: Baby You Can Drive My Car...
A small world just got smaller!
Halloween night I spotted this 2016 McLaren 650S traveling east on Detroit.
As the car sits, in a 2021 market it is worth about $280,000.00!
Engine: 3.8 l V8
Power: 641 hp @ 7,250 rpm (478 kW)
Torque: 500 lb·ft @ 6,000 rpm (678 N·m)
Induction: Turbocharged
Now here is where the world just got smaller. Zak Brown the current CEO of McLaren worldwide based in England, spent a couple summers in Lakewood, Ohio in his early racing years. Today he is considered one of the most powerful people in motor racing, besides heading up McLaren LTD, he also has one of the most extensive collections of historically significant cars and race cars in the world.
Just one of Lakewood's little inputs into Formula One and International Motorsports. There are many more!

Do regional soft drinks still exist?
Has there been any resurgence, as with breweries?

Re: Baby You Can Drive My Car...
Haha, thanks, Jim, somehow I missed this notification.
Odds are, there already is a local, craft soda industry and I don't know about it.
I hope so.

Re: Baby You Can Drive My Car...
We have a new winner meet the 2022 Rolls-Royce Cullinan base starting price $351,250 to over $700,000
This one sitting in front of Dave's Hot Chicken was $547,000
From "Car and Driver" magazine, "The Cullinan's twin-turbo 6.7-liter V-12 provides 563 horsepower (592 in the Black Badge model) and is whisper quiet, lest it disturb the VIPs in the cabin. The one we tested recorded a 60-mph time of just 4.5 seconds—impressive for a vehicle that weighs about three tons."
