I'm assuming the older gentleman with the tommy-gun was there to make sure that errant photographers didn't accidentally leave their paw-prints on the fenders ;)
 
Just outside of Klamath Falls, Oregon.

I think with a new paint job and a tune-up, she'll be ready to roll.

These guys will put a TESLA motor in, future proof for decades and 0-60 in less than 4 secs...

He was actually a pretty cool guy. He wanted me to pose with the gun and my foot on the running board, but I declined. He was dressed for the part, and no one wants to see me looking all gangster anyway. I was pretty surprised he offered. Cars like Packards and Cadillacs are pretty common, it's not often you see a Peirce Arrow. I think this may be only the second one for me.
 
Actually, just a couple of blocks from my house. Still runs. In fact the rear showed signs of an air system. Synced to music? A unique low-rider for certain. ;)

Right hand drive, left hand 4 speed manual. 1983 Hilux with a full conversion package (done in Oregon I think). He had just broken back from the west coast.

Sadly, after all that expense, he said he liked mine better.

I know I get better gas milage, but...
 
If one really wants to look at a weird car, try this Chevrolet 'Special'. What's really remarkable is that they drove it from Queensland to Melbourne for this car show, a minimum of around 1,700 kms.
