strangely enough, i've been looking into getting a replica 32 Ford Coupe w/ a chopped top and suicide doors, fenderless, and a small block engine.
under 30k.

Yeah, that was a pretty nice design. :thumbsup:

The NSX isn't too bad either, but it's gotten long in the tooth. :sweat:

Speaking of small blocks, I knew a guy a ways back in my first job (mid-1980's) who had a red Sunbeam Tiger convertible (the Get Smart car) with a Ford 289 in it.

Sweet.

I think that's in India. At first glance it looks chaotic, but in fact it's quite organized, look how they stop and wait patiently for each other. If that was in Bulgaria I guarantee that there will be at least 10 crashes in this 1 minute (especially with this bikes & tricycles, I would never make way for them) :beaten:.

I think we're using Ford Crown Victorias....

Interestingly, the CHP are using BMW K100(?) motorcycles... :victory:

I think the local police use BMW motorbikes too. They mainly use Holdens (GM) for their cars, although they trialled a Subaru WRX for a while, because the Holdens couldn't keep up with the criminals using WRX's in the city :)

Appears to be a copy of the Ferrari and Jaguar early 1960 designs.
