Nice Halloween costume Isabella

KING HOOP IS HAPPY

I'm all excited because the new film I'm in http://www.automorphosis.com
just won "Best Documentary" at the Royal Flush Film Festival in New York City.
My Vespa truck is now on display in the window at FusionArts Museum in NYC.

In the eye of the beholder

Surfing through ebay recently I was reminded of the saying, "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder." And I was thinking about that because I stumbled upon this listing, described as a 1947 Fiat Racer.

The car appears to be a combination of Fiat and Crosley parts -- starting as a racer, then converted for the street.


Hmmm...the other saying that comes to mind is, "A face that only a mother could love."

MINI MODELS

THESE SHOWGIRLS ARE READY FOR A BIG NIGHT ON THE TOWN.

LOTSA LUGGAGE

IT LOOKS LIKE THESE GALS HAD A SUCCESSFUL SHOPPING TRIP.

HEARTS & FLOWERS

HEY, HOW 'BOUT THOSE MUDFLAPS.

MY BIRTHDAY PRESENT

I've always liked Fiats, so I thought I'd post this one on my birthday.

Remember when

I've heard people say that the new concept Honda EV-N looks like a MINI.
I guess they just don't know about, or remember, the old Honda 600 sedan.
Retro really seems to be in - The MINI - The MUSTANG - The VW - What next?

Tight fit

This little Russian OKA can pack 'em in. All these Russian gals were able to
fit inside. Didn't they used to do that with Volkswagens and telephone booths.

Coulda Shoulda Wooda

Way out wooden cars built on small frames, including two three wheelers.

Happy Holidays

Small cars for the holiday season - Coffin Halloween car - OO00oo scary Pumpkin Thanksgiving car - and a nice Christmas Isetta

MORE RUSTY RELICS

l

Possibilities

You see that rusty old beater on the side of the road. You don't need
another project, but what the heck. Some time, some busted knuckles
and some ca$h is all it takes to have a beauty. Hmmm

DOGS IN ADVERTISING

Models are common in auto advertising, but dogs not so much. My dogs
always ran to the door, this one seems interested in something off camera.

Japanese Isetta???

Isetta you say - guess again - It's a Harrington BB.
It looks like an Isetta but that's where it ends.
An all steel body is mated to an all new frame, suspension and running gear.
This bubblecar is in the planning stage and will be an electric. see more at -

Compare and Decide

Comparing these two similar small cars, I've decided that
suicide doors are the way to go. Do you agree ?

Oh Goody - A Woody

Here's an odd carcycle built by a Japanese furniture manufacturing plant.

1/2 a MINI

The other day we featured a cozy FIAT couch. This is a MINI couch on wheels.

Microcars in the news

While the newsclip may be 16 years old, stories about microcars are timeless. (But...check out the size of the shoulders on the anchor woman's suit. She looks like she's ready to fly away.)

And don't miss the parade of microcars from an early meeting of the Microcar & Minicar Club -- Messerschmitt, Isetta, Lloyd Alexander, King Midget -- even an Eshelman.

A real BIMBO

The other day we posted "Little Wonders" and one was a Volugrafo Bimbo 46.
To see one start and run - Lookee here -

Ticket Time

These little Police Cars can sneak up on ya.

Little Wonders

Some very small cars from LIFE

Snuggle up closer

We've all seen those couches made of Caddys and 57 Chevys.
Believe me it's much more cozy in a Fiat.

Clown Town

Everyone down in Clown Town has fun 'til day is done

THE MINUTIA MONSTER

Today we have a BMW Isetta 600, well it used to be 600. This show car boasts
a bit more than that now. I'm sure this wild ride has introduced some youngsters
to the world of Micros and Minis that weren't familiar with them before.
