This one will be deleted as well. You can link an off brand car here.
But you cannot save it in your gallery.
Just the site rules.
Nice car though.

^^^ Panhards are really interesting cars, both in their styling and their engineering. Look at those wheels/hubs!

This one’s for you Ken, I chased this puppy down & followed him home, a 1957 Mack. They saved it from the crusher.

Hardly a car that is super, but with the turbo package it clocks in at 300hp... so technically a “super car”. |
A friend of mine bought a red one of those earlier this year. He loves it.

Thanks for putting them back up EverettB! Thanks for the link to the site but I think I will pass. I tried out Photo Bucket to get pictures onto another site and we all know how that turned out!
I do have pictures of a couple more unusual non VW cars but it isn't worth setting up something just for that. I just thought that with this being a non VW section that the pictures would be ok. |
I am curious what section of the samba gallery you posted your photos in. Not sure what would apply in there to any non-VW photo.
If you don't want to host your own photo somewhere, search goggle or some other search engine for a photo similar to what you saw, then copy and paste it into here. That is what I usually do.
Here is an image search for the Honda That's
https://www.google.com/search?q=honda+that%27s&...mp;bih=949 |
How come we don't get anything cool like that? All we get is what must be the most ugliest car in the world...the Civic type R.

Well Sir there are a lot of really cool cars in the rest of the world that we never see in North America. Here is a few VWs to drool over.
two full sized VW 4X4 TDI pickups.
A transport truck.
Two little VW Sanero trucks, diesel. The first is an extended cab version.
A VW lupo.
That is just in the VW line up. There were beautiful small fuel efficient cars made by Chevy, Ford, Peugeot, Renault, Nissan, Honda and many others we never see here. A lot of them were diesel too. First time I ever saw Chevy S10s, Ford Rangers and Dodge Dakotas with diesel engines! |
