probably looks like any old tank at first, but then, did you see that there are 4 tracks? Not the usual two
Peter Sellers
yup, it's a real Bugatti, factory racer
amphib plane, stored in a hanger because getting it flying would take 2 fortunes and a winning mega millions lotto ticket
the 1936 Henderson before the restoration http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2010/07/1936-henderson-at-rhinebeck-grand.html
a new image of the Count de Sakhnoffsky designed been truck, and this is a info card that was handed out at the trucks display... front above, and the reverse side below . For the gallery: http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2008/09/extraordinary-designer-of-automotive.html

"Cars 2" movie from Pixar/Disney had a lot of small details of conversion to automotive looking architecture
0 comments Posted by Unknown at 6:31 PMthey call it Big Bentley in the movie
They were right smart to label it Holden
Leave Spring under the above bridge, and replacing the cables in the London Bridge below
through out the movie you'll see statues of cars instead of people
I totally dig the wire wheel in the Eiffel tower, could be based on Kelsey Hayes, but who knows
the side of the Notre Dame looks like an exhaust header
A valve cover topping the Arc De Triumphe
a piston for an elevator
A Boyce Motormeter in the above building
the light shade looks like an type of engine
I didn't see all of these the first time or the second time I watched the movie... but I saw a lot of them, and found the rest when looking for them specifically for this post
