papajohn97 Posted October 17, 2021 Posted October 17, 2021 Some pics I took this morning at our local street fair in Thousand Oaks, CA, first bunch are movie prop cars from FvF movie as well as other movie, TV shows. I assume the Ferrari, GT-40 and P 910 are all reproductions based on the lack of roped-off barriers and guards…. 1
papajohn97 Posted October 17, 2021 Author Posted October 17, 2021 Here’s a few more of my favorites from this same street fair car show,
papajohn97 Posted October 17, 2021 Author Posted October 17, 2021 (edited) Love-love-love this ‘65 Plymouth Belvedere 426 Hemi SS/A. I’ve had a fetish for these since the 7th grade and have built a few 1/25 models of these in my old age from the excellent Moebius kit. Think I’ll build some more ?! Wish I could have stayed at this show long enough to hear this beast fire up. Edited October 17, 2021 by papajohn97 Spelling 1
papajohn97 Posted October 17, 2021 Author Posted October 17, 2021 Other favorite car at the street fair. This is one fabulous custom Merc, a famous car no-doubt? Saw this driving down our local streets a year ago and wanted to follow it but it wasn’t where my wife wanted me to take her. So nice to encounter it again and be able to study it up close. I do believe it’s the nicest custom car I have ever seen. If I were a very wealthy man, I would make the owner an agreeable offer just so I could park this beauty in my living room.
TransAmMike Posted October 17, 2021 Posted October 17, 2021 Wow, I'm usually not a big custom fan (I know, who cares right?) but man that sure is a beeeee-utiful Merc!!
Zippi Posted October 19, 2021 Posted October 19, 2021 I really like the Red 1940 Ford 5 window coupe.
misterNNL Posted October 20, 2021 Posted October 20, 2021 Is the monster sized speedster the "Beast of Turin" car?
webestang Posted October 26, 2021 Posted October 26, 2021 Rockford's Firebird............................SWEET......!!!!!! ?
Modelbuilder Mark Posted October 28, 2021 Posted October 28, 2021 Thanks for sharing! There are some great eye candy there!
1972coronet Posted October 28, 2021 Posted October 28, 2021 Lots of eye candy ! Naturally , my fav is the Bluesmobile ; which leads to a query you may not know the answer to : "Is it the sole-surviving car from the film ( A/K/A , the 'Star Car' for "beauty shots" ) ? Or , is it a good replica and / or a legit former police car ( V.I.N. of 'DK41--' ) ?"
