I've seen this car twice at the same grocery store. First time, a young man came out of the store and drove it away. I'm pretty sure he works there.

I've seen this A100 driving around town for at least a decade. I used to know the guy who put it together then he sold it. If memory serves me correctly it was a slant six originally but now i think it's got a 318. (The first guy built it to haul his vintage 160 race bike. Back when 160 Honda racing was just getting started.) Pretty sure it's still a daily driver these days.

Went camping near Carbondale, saw this when headed to look at aspen. I don't love it, but it caught my eye. I have no idea what it is. Mercury?



Not a driver but this is highly visible bait for a donut shop:

IMO was too nice to be a daily driver but kind of stood out in a local parking lot...
