WHAT A 1930'S DUESENBURG CAR DEALERSHIP SHOWROOM MIGHT HAVE LOOKED LIKE

WHAT A 1930'S DUESENBURG CAR DEALERSHIP SHOWROOM MIGHT HAVE LOOKED LIKE.

SOME PEOPLE WAIT A LIFETIME TO FIND A GREAT CAR, SOME FIND IT WHEN THEY ARE A TEEN, AND WAIT A LIFETIME TO WON IT. MARK WAS A FORTUNATE RARITY, HE GOT BOTH THE CAR HE DESIRED 30ISH YEARS AGO, AND IT'S A BARNFIND 1969 GT 500 SHELBY MUSTANG

Mark's neighbor was an attorney that owned 3 Shelby Stangs, acquiring each as payment on cases, and this was the one he drove the most and damaged in the early 80's, and then parked it in the warehouse over his office.

Men In Black 3, the motor wheels, the cars of the 1969 scenes, Boris the Animals monster cycle, and that cool little diner




A bit of this scene with better stills from the trailer are what I posted back in March http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2012/03/men-in-black-3-mib3-is-going-to-be.html













I can't exactly place the cop car... a Beaumont? http://www.imcdb.org/movie_1409024-Men-in-Black-III.html says this is a Ford, but I'm thinking Chevy or Olds.. Caprice?

some cool photos from some of my favorite sites

 it is an American LaFrance speedster, they made a lot of firetrucks.  http://bubblevisor.blogspot.com/ for a couple more photos, and the story about it http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2009/12/1915-american-lafrance-speedster.html

 wheelie bars, pro stock/pro street.. so very 1970's. Love it. http://endlessme.tumblr.com
 1947 Dutch railways, Fiat Topolino, the only one I've ever seen as a railcar. http://t-s-k-b.tumblr.com
 possibly a Red Bug or Oriental Buckboard, with either the Briggs and Stratton motor wheel or a Smith Motor wheel http://www.reservatory6.blogspot.com
how do you keep this from flipping over? http://bubblevisor.blogspot.com/
1930's Austin (Amerrican Bantam)  http://www.reservatory6.blogspot.com

old and unusual vehicles that are getting emailed around this week

 I believe the above is a bread delivery truck... must be successful to afford the coachwork!
 very elegant tour coach tram... this would not be good in any area with weather, but terrific for Southern California... all we get is sun from March to December.. yes, I am bragging. It's expensive too.
 the above... is EARLY! 1890's? I think! Victorian to Edwardian for sure

 one tiny tracked tourer
 Movie studio lot transport? Tourist carrier?
 She must be in incredible muscular shape to push pull that cycle
 No notes with this email of photos to indicate why two images of this cycle car are here, it's the same motorcycle rear, and I guess the front is the same, but at a later time, when he added headlights and the trunk on the roof

 An orient buckboard above
Thanks to commentor Boonie, the above people carrier is identified as a Lister Auto Truck, and a website link I am grateful for was offered that displays a great number of images that demonstrate a variety of these small industrial motorized service craft used in the 1920's and 1930's  http://www.autotruck.org/apps/photos/album.jsp?albumID=3840394  and below is a better look at one


Another reminder that there is always more wheeled machines that I've never seen or heard of to discover! 
 I've posted about this motorwheel http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/search?q=dynasphere it's the Dynasphere of Dr Purve
it was too big to be able to turn when needed...
