Midwest Spotter's thread

Dude, I'm stumped. Try moving the pics over to the general "other car" section and see if anyone knows...

 

thanks, i'm pretty sure it's one of mark hyman's cars, but i haven't seen it on his inventory list. i posted it in another thread, hopefully i'll find out what it is, it's pretty cool though.

 

That's funny...first place I went was Hyman Ltd's website! great minds think alike, or something like that

 

haha, that they do.

 

i just got an email back from mark that it is one of his cars, a 1939 lancia astura pinin farina cabriolet.

 

learn something new every day thanks for letting us know!

what gave it away, that $35 Wal-Mart stereo?

When/where did you see that dune buggy? I saw one similar mid-afternoon in downtown Kwood. can't imagine there's too many of those running around the Lou.

 

Scott, I didnt know they were having a car show at the gay-pride parade?

 

haha, yeah, that was a definite giveaway. the dune buggy was spotted yesterday on 270 norhbound near 370

damn tim, you caught me. it was spotted at summerfest in olivette, we've had a corniche roll up there for a couple of years, but not this year.

 

red 512/testarossa at 270 and paige, i hear the engine rev, turn around, and barely caught it

 

bentley flying spur on 270 at 370, and it looked like a bunch of miatas were doing a drive, there was a line of about 10-20 of them pulled off to the side of 157 in edwardsville today

 

yellow F430 Coupe headed south on Metcalf/69 in OP. Would have taken a pic, but we were headed north on I35 and just spotted the tail as it crossed over...

 

silver 360 spider, downtown Kirkwood around 2:30. great sound...

 

Red 360 coupe, Hanley & Wydown this afternoon

 

I have been seeing that car around the neighborhood alot,it had temp tags in the window last time i saw it..

 

Tim, is that your neck of the woods? I used to live on Westwood just south of Wydown. Kinda wish I still did...great neighborhood.

 

Red Lotus Esprit V8, Ballas & Clayton around 1:45 this afternoon

 

some spots from about 2 weeks or so: a sign that pretty much sums up gas prices, some old car? no idea what it is...and an arnage

Pic #1: '32 Ford hotrod?
Pic #2: drive by that intersection every day. nice little comic relief
Pic #3: you are heading Southbound on Warson (turning east onto Clayton)?

 

#1: beats me, it's possible though
#2: yeah, right there at ballas and clayton, it's nice to see a sense of humor when it comes to gas prices
#3: you got it

 

Black Aston Martin V8 Vantage, Illinois plates, at Bull's Eye Indoor Shooting Range (Manchester & Kingshighway) around 2:30.
