George Barris no doubt! His fingerprints are all over it. 
Funny, Barris was doing this stuff, and Max Balchowsky was building superb "junkyard dog" road race cars a few miles away in LA. Max's dogs looked a whole hell-of-a-lot better IMO.

Gaston Chevrolet (driver with the great 'stache). Came close to winning Indy in that car in maybe 1920. Died in a crash at a board track a year later in LA. Different car though.

There we go, a stock Graham

My two boys and I went to Gettysburg over the weekend, kind of a spur of the moment trip. We had a relative there who was wounded on the 3rd day so we tracked down his unit markers.

I was about 15 miles south of there - 71-75 . We used to go to Gettysburg often.
Pretty sure I saw the exact vehicle above yesterday being trailered through Oak Ridge.

The old folks around here referred to the above as Hoover Carts. (or maybe not). This looks like a car body mounted on a wagon bed. Hoover carts were cars that were modified to be pulled by mules or horses.

Bennett buggies in Canada.
See: Prime Minister Bennett.
Saratoga Auto Museum's new event is Radwood Cars. Calloway Corvette Roadster (no roof available), S-10 Cyclone, Mitsu I don't know enough about, Mrs. Petersen's personal Bentley Turbo and an electric something silly. This is < 1/3 of the collection. Cars will be replaced and or added in the coming weeks.
In reply to 914Driver :
That's a Mosler Consulier, not an electric something silly. Ugly, but serious cred.
