Could turn that Volvo into a camper or as the English say a caravan.

No we also say camper van, a caravan is a horrible contraption that you tow with your normal everyday car
A camper van is self contained and obviously be a VW

Looks like a V-6 model but that's OK as the 6 cylinder pumps out 301 horsepower.

Another old Mercedes...the owner looks likely to have owned it from new...maybe bought it when he was 20 now 70

1970 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. Always liked this model. Looks fast just standing still.

Most definitely the best looking Trans period......The bull nose...

A little off topic but I am the thread starter. My good friend in the USA just sold his 1970 Trans Am and it went to Japan.

Phon, Khon Kaen.

 

I saw this from a distance in the carpark of my local Tescos today and had to get some pictures..

 

A (what I knew as a) Hillman Minx with a 'Rootes Group' bonnet badge. I've looked at Wikipedia and these cars were made under licence by Isuzu in Japan from 1953-64.

 

The proud owner in the photo said it was 64 years old. He'd just driven up from Buriram and said he used it almost every day. It's Khon Kaen registered and taxed for this year. Wheels not original but the rest of it looks pretty much unchanged.

With 22's you better have deep diff gears

Nice old Oldsmobile. I think it's a 1954.

Cool looking torpedo back Buick.

Saw this one this morning. Looked great.

Pics is not exact to the one I saw as I was parked at a red light next to it, trying to get my camera out, when the light turned green

Any Fiat experts know - the one I saw had a hood emblem looking like a cylinder with 2 'wings' beside it, red badge in centre of grill says Fiat

Man said it was "About 1955"
