I thought it might be fun to pick a cool car pic out of my collection and post a new one each week (might be intertaining for a while).  I have created a large collection of digital photographs during my many trips to car shows and haven't really had much of a chance to show off the photos I have taken.  So, I think I might give this a try.

I have chosen this as the first photo.  This is a Hot Rodded 1932 Ford Sedan.  "Under the Hood" (even though there was not hood) is a Chevy 350 V8 which was super charged.  As can be seen in the pics, this car had open headers which made it very loud.  A cool feature of this car is its gas tank, which is the small tank at the front of the car.  Although it can't hold much fuel, that tank can be pressurized to help feel fuel faster into the motor and increase power.
...

I took this photo at the 2005 Springfield Car Show in Springfield, Oregon (July 2005).

Nice car - but I wouldn't want that fuel tank rear-ending me in a crash! Could be nasty.

Ain't that the truth - with a 1.2 under the bonnet aswell. All revved up & no-where to go  Roll Eyes (except for McDonalds that is).

This is what we have to suffer in the UK:

hmm. . .i think i will post my car of the week which i actually saw two weeks ago. i will post when i get back this weekend.

hints as to what it was: it is a very nice red. there is only one in existance (for right now). it made its debut at this years LA auto show

will post pictures later. it was at a private auto show at a country club that my parents belong to. i saw the person put it onto the trailer (the thing makes the most godly/ungodly sound ever!!)

kudos to anyone who can guess what it is

That has got to be the most ugliest, most dispicable, most.... basically it's ugly as h377.

I've seen mini clown cars look better than that.

As for that hot rod, hot d@mn.

Of course it's better, I don't like the GT500. Is it the Charger SRT8? Probably not, I think you said you didn't like that one.
