car stuff only...last friday the 13th I saw a guy driving a 69 camaro z/28 pulling a single axle trailer with the smallest tires you can think of and with a christmas tree on the trailer...looks like he just bought the tree from home depot...driving that kind of car in michigan winters with all the salt,the trailer,the tree...weird Posted by 2002Z4CSS (Member # 1393) on :
Was the 69 Z-28 pretty nice? On Saturday in my son and I washed the wife's Cadillac and on the way back home we drove around my old neighborhood. There is a guy that owns a 1979 Camaro that was in his garage and yet he also owns a 30th Anniversary Hardtop SS and a 35th Anniversary LE convertible. He also has a newer Z-24 Cavailier. What is strange is that the 30th SS and the 35th SS have been just sitting in the driveway for months now. All snow covered. What I found was strange is that I used to live in that neighborhood and we have a 1979 Berlinetta Camaro,a 30th Anniversary Z-28 and a 35th Anniversary LE and a 1999 Z-24. He also owned a pickup truck...a Dodge for him and a Ford for me.

Once when I was driving one of my 1969 Camaros in the rain I saw a rainbow at night. There was a full moon and when there was a break in the clouds, it caused a completely white rainbow. Never saw one before or since. Car stuff and stuff people do with their cars (driving and decorating), I see totally weird stuff almost every day. Cars covered with grass or cups & saucers. Cars with spoilers bigger and heavier than the rest of the car w/front wheel drive. Half-hearted/underskilled attempts at creating a Batmobile. The Oscar Meyer wienermobile. Saw a VW bug flip over into the center median of the freeway one time for no apparent reason. Yesterday I saw a guy slow way down to make a right hand turn, then stopped as soon as he went around the corner. Then he did a u-turn. Saw a lady on a cell phone the other day realize she was going to miss her on-ramp at the last minute (she was in the left lane and the on-ramp was two lanes over to the right) so she did a lane change and then came to a complete stop in the middle lane to wait for traffic to clear so she could get over. That's enough for now. My blood pressure's going up just thinking about it.

The weirdest thing I ever saw was a hot chick like Precilla Presly marry that freak, Michael Jackson. No relation to Greg Jackson.
Oh, and one time I saw an elephant give birth. That was just about as weird but a lot messier. Posted by Leadfut (Member # 1375) on :
The weirdes thing I have ever seen is....an artist car in the Richmond Virginia area whose name is "HAPPY". He has transformed his station wagon into moving "ART". He has painted the body yellow, there is a bike, some store mankins dressed in formal wear, stuffed animals and all sorts of other junk on the luggage rack. I am not real sure what he has going on in the inside of the car.

FYI: That would be the Lamborghini owned by artist Christian Reese Lassen. Some of his paintings are incredible, he has a way of making them bright and colorful almost like a digital effect. He painted the Lambo and has it on display at his gallery/store in Ceasar's Palace. Suh-weet! Posted by RHT (Member # 902) on :
I saw a 69 Camaro get hit by an Oldsmobile. I was crusing down Speedway in Tucson, AZ one night in my '56 Ford F-100. This Oly makes a left accross on coming traffic. I thought for sure he would stop in the medain, but no, he comes right out and tags this nice '69 in the left front...HARD.
A half mile later I watch a Chevy Cavalier slam into the back of a late '80s T-Bird sitting at a stop light.
2 accidents in about 2 minutes and I was just a lane away in both cases.

Around campus here there is a car that is painted several colors not unusual but it is the small figures of animals that are glued all over the hood/trunk/sides ect. that makes this stand out. Little critters an inch high all over that make you look twice.
