Saw this one in the zoo parking lot 2 weeks ago, Calgary, Alberta Canada.
I have no idea why but these pictures disappeared so I put them up again.

Turns out it’s a 68 but it’s hard to tell.

More like THAT'S it?!? I'm not sure why they made it 4WD, that wouldn't survive 3"-4" of snow.
Or maybe "That's" your coffin, there ain't a lot of crush zone there. _________________ Everybody born before 1975 has a story, good, bad, or indifferent, about a VW.

I don't see anything but if it's not a VW, they were deleted from the VW/Porsche ONLY gallery _________________ How to Post Photos

I do not see a place to post non VW pictures but there must be one as there are other non VW pictures here. |

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

I tried it under "site" and "Other VW/water cooled VW cars". There is no non VW options in the gallery but this section of the site is labelled non VW. Seems odd but it is what it is. I accept that. |

The gallery is totally separate from the forums. The gallery is for VW only photos. The forums are open to whatever photo is apropos to the conversation. You just need to host or find your non-VW photos elsewhere. No big deal. _________________ nothing |

Shitty pics, but it's a Mercury Marauder. They had only a 2 year run, '03-'04, it was liked a tuned Grand Marquis. Sort of like their version of the Buick Grand National. Pretty cool.
