The elky is going to be a project but I really only brought the sad Manta home for the louvers.

This was the heaviest I've towed with the ESV and it didn't mind it one bit.
This came up on my FB page. I knew I had the picture around somewhere. This was my last Stag to leave the herd that at one time had 5 of them. I was waiting for the transport to pick it up to take it to California. 
I orchestrated the rescue of this. Genuine Fiat Abarth OT1000.
This past spring's project, now finished:
A nice car that became a project after I stuffed it into the tire wall at Summit Point. Mostly back together but I've lost interest and would love to sell it:
Tony Soprano had to give Furio Giunta a ride home last weekend.
Either that, or I hauled home another derelict E36 M3box to play with.

I have action photos of that Abarth in 1970 & 71. Multiple PHA hillclimbs.

Go on...
I want this thing gone. Complete but crappy and sitting on my buddies trailer.
Up Saturday early to drive 1:30 hours to buy a set of wheels ($75) to then drive another 2 hours to pick up a $100 car and then drive another 3:30 hours home. Totally normal behavior.
Is that a Datsun 810 Deluxe
or
a Datsun 810 Maxima
or
a Datsun Maxima
or
a Datsun Maxima by Nissan?
In reply to John Welsh :
None of the above, it's a toyota cressida
In reply to John Welsh :
1984 Cressida. Easy to spot re;82-83 Cressida as they had an 85 mph speedo, whilst the '84 has a 130 mph speedo. This one is also a slick top which I'm a little intrigued by. My '83 has a powered sunroof and this '84 is going to donate many of its rust-free body panels to repair my '83. As the '84 also has no drivetrain in it, I may also use it as the test platform to work out the 1UZ/R154 install, mounts, etc before I do a full install into my '83. That sounds logical to me at least.
Picked up a week back. All loaded and ready to drag it home.
picked up a wild VW project.
On... in?
Meh, close enough.
Taking my Cherokee to the interim storage location while we get ready to move to the new house.
Also, I need a black driver's door for a two door 99 Cherokee Sport if anyone knows of one.
Helped a friend retrieve his broken mitsubishi today.

You had me scared for a moment. All the cars gone from the front yard and an Evo on the trailer.

If I was getting an Evo it probably wouldn't be this one. All the cars are still there, just moved around and obscured.
Yesterday was disassembly day, we took apart three sailplanes, my Grob 109 and a Pawnee tow plane.
Dragged this joyless thing back to the shop yesterday. EVIL plans....
I may have bought three cars last week. The trailer/ESV combo is a blessing and a curse.
First was my new autocross car:
Next was another basketcase C900, but one with very little surface rust and 76k miles:
And the third was something stupid that I've driven almost everywhere since I brought it home:
Don't crucify me for the awful wheels on the Fleetwood. They're leaving ASAP.
