I wonder how they're planning to push that truck, what with the drive wheels off the ground.
For last call, a little show and tell. This is the coolest vehicle at this year's WORLD OF WHEELS … WHEELS … WHEELS in Kansas City. Nobody was around to tell me what the driveline is, but a 4 wheel drive '57 Chevy longroof is cool, no matter what's underneath. This one was, of course, damn near perfect.

4X4 converts are nice. And in Kansas City too. They got a crazy way of lovin' there.
I got a quote from Venus Body Shop in KC for some work my Impreza needs. They had a big picture of this up on the wall, and the owner claims the body work for the resto was done at his shop. The place is always packed out with business and has been around for decades … I don't doubt his claim, and it makes me happy that I'm getting my silly little WRX repaired at a shop that also does interesting work like this.
Ooo look! They brought a pick-a-nic basket with them… feeling hungry, eh, Boo Boo?
I really gotta start going to that again…
Much better this year – not so much floor space devoted to rat rods.
Wow! So much LOL in one picture.
Hard appreciate all of it if you don't click through to the fullsize pic.
Well, at least he had the foresight to bring a spare car along with him.
So he runs out of gas in the car being towed, then runs out of gas in the tow truck/conglomerationofcrap… some days you should just stay in bed and drink.
IN other news, it's going to be 60 this week. I wonder if February is too early to go topless on the Jeep…
Look! This knucklehead piled a straight front axle from like a dumptruck on that poor little econobox. Most people would haul something like that with, I dunno, a flatbed trailer. I wonder if after refueling the truck, if he actually made it to wherever he's going without further disaster, like the stupid little car completely disintegrating?
