Texas Southern woman's bball team is staying in hotel next to my office, they have a nice graphic on back of bus.

Can a Texas school not use monogram style branding or is that state law?

Typically a pontoon boat would have an outboard motor, what is going on with this??

Couple fun today, she's nice but a LITTLE dirty. Although the GT isn't as nice as convertible and I'll die on that hill

Truth in stickers

On a Durango Hemi, so probably 100% accurate

And for Adam, think I've gone a week seeing all least one every day. Still can't convince the wife she needed one as market car

From AU$245,000 here plus onroads and options. Average price seems A$275k plus on roads.

**Adam43** · 21 Nov 2023, 03:23 (Ref:4186727)

Sounds about right. 0-60 in 2.9s and 190mph. Previous gen 911 Turbo performance.

Well that's what she's not a fan of, 130ish here. Told her she would be the coolest car at the market, that didn't seem to impress her at all. Weird that but at least she freely admit she views a car as a tool and tool only, dents, scuffs, etc are all just life.

Gerard C · 21 Nov 2023, 14:45 (Ref:4186766)

Nice bermuda you have here, broad… Courageous to wear this kind of stuff in autumn. Let me guess: you're not a cyclist, are you?

broadrun96 · 21 Nov 2023, 19:08 (Ref:4186790)

It was 75 (23 in Commie) out, was shorts and short sleeves, plus in the South (with Northern roots) it's shorts 98% of the year. And no one ever accuses me of cyclist, most bikes even motorcycles can't handle the giant fat guy

broadrun96 · 22 Nov 2023, 02:27 (Ref:4186821)

Old Dodge, long box flavor. Oh and some of dirty euro thing too

And just for fun, wrong sided Land cruiser

That's what happens in Atlanta in the fall if you're near oaks and don't wash. My poor truck hasn't been cleaned off in almost 2 weeks and looks abandoned with the leaves

It took my 2 lights in a row before I realized what the Land cruiser was

Cant be 100% sure but the 'dirty Euro thing' looks like a VW Jetta???

The Pov(erty) Pack (Aussie for base model!) had similar wheels with the punched holes round.

**Adam43** · 22 Nov 2023, 03:28 (Ref:4186832)

Zeeeeeee.

And a fan of stripy insects?

broadrun96 · 22 Nov 2023, 03:44 (Ref:4186836)

That the new Hornet or old Nitro thing?

So, more HD or Goldwing oriented rather than Honda Monkey?

I went to the Sandown Historics last weekend and found a few little gems in the carpark.
As I suspect no one would know what the penultimate two pics are (Reg #JNP300), that is a Bolwell Nagari Mk 10. (Nagari is an aboriginal word meaning "flowing") There were only ever a Mk 8 and a Mk 10 Nagari. There are other Marks of Bolwell but it a bit complicated. The Mk 8 and 10 were both Nagaris from the 70's and the 10 the noughties..

The beige mustard coloured sports coupe in the background is actually a Mk 8.

Bolwell were a limited volume Aus sports car producer from the sixties until a few years ago, made a few hundred cars and who bolted components into their own body design..... Mk 8 featured a Ford 302 or 351 cubic inch V8 engine mounted in a 920 kg (2,028 lb), 2,280 mm (89.8 in) wheelbase body and backbone chassis. Other components came from Ford (suspension and dampers) and Austin 1800 (steering).

The Mk X was ltogether a bit more cultured and was launched c 2008.... mid-engined two-seater coupé with a carbon-fibre tub, front and rear subframes and a carbon-reinforced composite body. Engine was a modified and supercharged 3.5 V6 Toyota with a 6 speed manual box. Yes the tail lights are Honda Integra

Not a lot of them about but they have a Bolwell Car Club. They explain and show pics of all the different Marks or models. https://www.bolwellcarclub.com.au/

Nice , EB!!

Someone told me I should post this here, too. I ate dinner next to a rotating pink Cadillac the other day.
