The ~~Pontiac~~ Oldsmobile Cutlass with 50" wire rims sits in front of Mease's Custom Car Accessories in Warren, OH. It's strictly a billboard for advertising purposes. It has no engine nor is it street legal.

Thanks Steve for the info,
I am sure it fills it's purpose of catching attention...
Anyway, it would be suicidal to drive something like that.

The topic says '' Cars and bikes ''
how about this one below?
Does it fall in the '' trucks '' category
or simply the category of
(Futuristic) Motorhome ?

OUPS ! ....
Not that one.

Haaaaaa... Yes, that's the one.
I would not be ashamed to ride one of those.

I like convertibles:

Excuse my ignorance (

) but is that a Datsun-Nissan 240Z ?
The lady can afford a nice set of wheels like that,
(I am assuming that she owns the car)
but she can't buy a decent pair of jeans. (Full of holes...)

Yes, I know, it's fashion to have air conditioning in your jeans.

Appears to be in the Z family for sure. Could be a 240, 260 or early 280. I would bet 240 though.

Liked those as a kid in the 70's.

I managed to purchase one in my late teens (used 240Z). Blast to drive, but had it's issues. The worst was a vapor lock issue that was terrible and I never managed to overcome. I learned to pop the hood almost every time I stopped in the summer and realize I wasn't going to restart the car for a good 15-20 minutes after I turned it off.

....but I will always remember the days I managed to drive it on Highway 1 North of the Bay and down the Coast from Monterey. Good times.

The car pictured certainly does not have the original front bumper of the 240Z (nor is it a convertible

)
