So I know TST is mainly tuner and sports cars but I couldn't help but notice a number of us also have antique/vintage cars and motorcycles. There are a couple old pickups, old VWs etc.... So let's see them.

I don't have good shots of my Cb yet but here are some of my 66 Beetle

The Captain · 01-23-2009, 01:56 PM

There are new ones now too (well old harharhar) but these pictures are about 2 y/o

The Captain · 01-23-2009, 02:05 PM

Going off the top of my head, I'll try to list the current inventory.

1959 Cadillac Fleetwood
1959 Lincoln Continental Mark IV 2dr Convert
1948 Desoto w/ 350
1952 Chevy Pickup classic resto
1950 Chevy Pickup ratrod resto w/ 350
194? Metropolitan
1972 VW Beetle
1950 Hudson Hornet
1948 Plymouth ??

Anyone who can name the bike gets 5 points.

poisonivory · 01-23-2009, 02:18 PM

Schwinn Phantom?? or Rollfast??

The Captain · 01-23-2009, 02:22 PM

Phantom, 5pts to you.

poisonivory · 01-23-2009, 02:24 PM

sweeet!!! lol

BTW, your garage is awesome..i would'nt give 2 shyts about a prelude if all those projects were in my garage. lol

The Captain · 01-23-2009, 02:28 PM

They're not all mine. It's a family thing, my dad, older brother, and I work on them. I've been restoring antiques as long as i can remember.

**Ender81** · 01-23-2009, 02:46 PM

Will do, next time I'm home. You could eat off of its undercarriage.

**Ender81** · 01-23-2009, 03:33 PM

That's really cool. I dig it when people do their own work, my girlfriends father helps with my cars. Maybe the chance will come up to hangout sometime and talk shop. Where's the bug btw lol.

The Captain · 01-23-2009, 03:37 PM

I don't have any pictures of it since it was 'finished' It's the ugliest thing ever. It's got an original mulholland kit on it from the 80's to make it look like a porsche...i hate it, my dad loves it.

EDIT: looks like this -

**Ender81** · 01-23-2009, 03:45 PM

Wait is yours the one for sale on Craigslist? And since you said it yes it is the ugliest thing ever lol

The Captain · 01-23-2009, 03:53 PM

I begged him to go back to Original, since we got it with the kit on, just unfinished. He refused. Umm, it's possibly the one of craigslist, I told him i wanted nothing to do with it cause of how ugly it was so he might be selling it. I know we're looking at picking up a 67 impala and the beetle's gotta go to make space.

**Ender81** · 01-23-2009, 04:12 PM

That's pretty cool, I dig the classic Impallas my favorite cars are pre-70's. So do you and your dad hit any cruises or take them out?

The Captain · 01-23-2009, 05:27 PM

Never did any cruises, used to bring them to shows but it's a nightmare sitting next to them for hours worrying about people's zippers/etc so we don't really do that anymore either. But on sundays in the nice weather, they all come out. I'll try to get better pictures next time i'm home. I havent really gotten to play with them since I've been at school.

I noticed you have a 78 cb750...we also have a '73 CB350... and a '70s harley...and a 60's ford pickup.

Basically we have too many toys.

**Ender81** · 01-23-2009, 05:39 PM

That's cool. Yeah I am going to be giving the CB a little cafe treatment. Not looking to ride daily, just get out a little and have some fun.

87fierogt · 01-23-2009, 06:37 PM
