Not a great photo emailed from my mom, but we can't figure out what it is

 

Yeah it looks like a Daihatsu Midget with a custom canopy. I was thinking Renault Twizy at first but the rear end is much more blunt on those.

I used to love these when i was a kid. Always wanted one.

That was in Ashland, not where I'd expect to see one

Corolla hatchback?  My parents had one when I was a kid.  Sold it because they didn't want to teach my older sister how to drive manual.  Probably would have been my first car if they'd realized she wasn't going to get her drivers license until after me.

Yep. Pillarless 

Same Walmart where I found the S10 dually.

Early 1970s Dodge Colt. The owner saw me taking a picture and told me he had swapped in a rebuilt 2.6 from a Mighty Max. He has owned another one with a Dodge 340 Six Pack, but that was quite a handful to drive.

I'm almost more impressed by the Murphy Bed Center.

Not sure what this was but it looked really good.

is that a citroen? 

I saw both a G63 4x4² and a hightop Aerostar today. Which one excited me more...

Not sure which one you are refering to. One is an Amazon electric van by Rivian. The other is an early 70s american car. 

In reply to Slippery :

You're off by a few years, that is a late 60s Chevrolet, probably Impala, but it might be lower trim level. Possible original color.

I wish those were rarer, this is the guy who drove between the snow stakes and embedded himself in my yard yesterday

Edit: and they aren't Citroens. 

In reply to Slippery :

I was asking about the van. It has a french look with the rear wheel arch covers and low nose.  

i wasnt aware of the rivian vans or amazons use of them. 

 

heres a cool car i spotted. Cherry! Set up for racing too. 

In reply to chandler :

I assume Amazon will be paying for repairs to your yard?  I thought it was bad that delivery people walk through people's yards to save 5 seconds all the time, but that's just a whole different level...

Just asked my dad, '66 Impala according to him. Maybe an SS. 

Do cars shot at Daytona count?
