Hey Joe , I saw that photo and sorta assumed that it was a modern day creation of a "Hood ride" ralley car only cause of the cliche number 13, patina and the checkered roof seems like a bit much. I could be wrong if not id love to hear the history of it.

Judging by the latches for the front hood, by the fuel refill cap located at the top of the hood , the racing seat and by the steering wheel , ... this car was really a racer :)
I'd love to see pictures of the engine and dashboard, see what mods have been made and hear it's story :)

What he said^^^^^^

Both cars are sweet!!! I am not to crazy about the front seats or the checkered sunroof. But the motor has me drooling.

More picture of either one would be cool

It looks like it says "------ racing" on the bottom of the door.

Apperently they didn't have a Denzel or Okrasa so they put this in it.



Not bad, but it needs a Denzel. :twisted:

My Okrasa is still in pieces, so I decided to cruise with my TheoDecker.

Everyone should know this car.... It is Herbies half brother....literally. Herbie was called "ocho" in Herbie goes bananas because the kid figured that 53 or 5+3 was eight... therefore the 13 car is "cuatro" 13 0r 1+3 is four.

Gosh, I thought all of you would know this. :lol:

and since 4 is before 8, is it his much older brother, or like his daddy?
