58 Biscayne
I kind of liked it, and very briefly thought about it, until I realized the hybrid is only FWD. Need to upgrade to the other engine option and then also add AWD.
that bus is an odd one.Next door to the AirBnB I'm staying in in West Asheville is this doubledecker bus in a guy's driveway. Wins the weirdest car in the driveway award and I've seen a lot this weekend down here.
Ran into a car show down in Hendersonville with the other cars. FactoryFive Ford 34? that I've never seen in person. The guy did a great job having the old rat-rod patina going on the parts.
@MissJR did a great job pointing out the difference between the grille of the '64 Falcon and the 65 Falcon grill on the wall above our couch.
Also obvious at the car show that Ford made a million 65/66 Mustang. Because half of them were at the show.
While sitting in a cafe eating breakfast in Carlisle on Friday we saw 40 or so Monte Carlos go by. Heading to GM Nationals.

That place is cool. I was there several years ago. There were 4 F40s there.January 2020, I took my friend to Classic Coach in Elizabeth to check-in on his 512, which was getting an engine out service with timing belts and a bunch of things.
He picked it up this past Friday (!). At some point, they discovered 1/2 the pistons from an old rebuild were the wrong ones, preventing setting the cam timing properly. It took a year to get new pistons! The car spent the pandemic at the shop.
It's always a pleasure. So many awesome cars. We laughed later when John mentioned the 288 GTO was gone. "Nope, it was on the lift next to the F50". "I didn't even see it. There's just so much to take in!" One thing that always strikes me when I'm there is how calm it is. Everyone quietly working on their immediate project. No rushing. We were there for over an hour just wandering around/going over the car. The tech spend 20 minutes going through pictures of the work he had done.
Brought my 13yo daughter this time. She loved it.

SF90. I think the white lettering on the tires is the owner's name. Sigh.

This Daytona is so nice. No idea what the story is. It's been there for at least two years.

Is the owners name Tony by any chance? Looks like slicks on the back and I know he tracks his car. Good guy.
