You and I should talk sometime. Was this ever used on the rails, like a Hy-Rail or did you add the decals?

I drive a 65 Continental....And of all days, today I lost the tranny!...talk about a $1500 kick in the ass! I just finished getting the paint and tires...

The above shot was taken about a week before the new tires and rim paint color...The rims are painted a black n blue pearl now on thin white walls....

Here's my 1955 86" series 1 landrover right hand drive. She's currently in the process of being lightly tikified (fake bamboo on the soft top hoops n' such). THis is her in her winter coat (safari hardtop). She's topless at the moment. She was my daily driver (and running grand) until a few weeks ago when my gearbox oil started pouring out of the timing pointer cover. (timing chain kicking it up and out, I think). anywho - hopefully she's off to the rover doc this week so I can get to cruising around in her again soon.

My friend Mike has a Willys he calls the "Tiki Tub". Here is a photo of my wife Laura in the Tub at her birthday party/car show this last August.

Here is my car TikiTorch. it is a 1955 Ford Fairlane Club Sedan. The trailer is Tahitian Treat it is a early Sears Allstate clamshell.
