Always go into a corner too fast, in case it turns out to be a quick one!

Gordon - you are spot on, even the reg. Full marks - that was flipping quick Now for the next one, be back soon This bus took 10 years to build: Sentinel Typhoo is made from various tractor parts and powered by 100 horse power locomotive steam engine. This is already more than a tractor, less than a train, and exactly a bus - a moving, "breathing" hybrid machine.

The Moxie Company is the oldest bottler of soft drinks in the US. Years ago they had a fleet of six of these cars which were used for parades and publicity. The driver sits atop the horse and drives the car using the stirrups as the accelerator and brake. Only one of the original cars still exists. Originally based on a 1929 LaSalle, Known as the Moxie Horse Car. Possibly the photo is of a replica based on a 1927 Rolls Royce. Film clip of the car being driven here! http://www.thisexit.com/movies/NHLINmoxie_flt.mov |

Thats the world famous Budweiser "Land Cruiser" c. 1925.
The car was equiped with working cannons fore and aft but it is not know if it ever sank another car and is the only one with a bell.
BTW, There is only one left of the 8 made, the Budweiser II Land Cruiser, Original made on a Pierce-Arrow chassis, but changed sometime in its history to a caddy. The car was found in 1960 and had a full restoration in 1990 and the chassic changed again to a another 1930's caddy.

What can I say................................
AGHHHHHHHHHH
Correct - spot on, what else can I say.
All I can do is post a bigger picture, of the motor. My only question is it was taken in the 20's, how did Bud survie the American Prohibition is the period from 1920 to 1933.
Any big pic of the motor - back soon with another one.

The Boat cars were used to promote a brand of Bud called 'Bevo'. It was a non achololic drink and therefore not worth knowing about. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bevo |

There are very strong design cues from the Maserati A6GCS "Monofaro" single seater and the holes on the wing are another clue. ok found it. Maserati A6G 2000 Frua Spider maybe? I think I need to get out more btw, looking for in info on the above turned up the fact that James Martin, who is a cleb chef owns one of the 15 single seaters made. http://www.classiccar.co.nz/news/maserati-a6gcs-campaigned-by-celebrity-at-mille-migliasomtimes I just want to cry. |
