I have no picture to post for this post Oppo. But that is for one reason and on reason only, my father would not turn the car around. Saturday morning we made the trek to Indianapolis to attend my sister’s wedding, owing to me not trusting my car to drive that far I rode with my parents. During this drive we pass many places with interesting cars that may or may not be for sale but there is a white one that massively stands out from the rest. This one, this one is a Bradley GT. In case you do not know what these are pop on over to google or Wikipedia and read up and do an image search. Well this Bradley GT was for sale. It was far into the beater status verging on not worth saving. Remember, this is just a drive by glance caught from the highway. But there was something intriguing about this one, it had a price written in window chalk on it: $1600. Yet the car did not turn around, dad lost his gear head status years ago.

Sorry you had to endure that, man. I hate having to drive by super interesting cars. I will say, upon Googling the car, I couldn’t like the strange looks :(

Sometimes I when I look at cars and go “What the hell were try thinking?”

I asked that when I looked up the car. It’s like a FR predessor to the Lyon LM2 Streamliner

It’s a caricature of the period for sure, you may need a mustache to really enjoy it (ladies included).

Maybe your dad has Broadley tastes rather than Bradley ones? $1600 is still a bit much for a 40 year old kit.

I saw one go down my block a couple years ago

Personally, I think it looks like a really large C4 Corvette Power Wheels. :/

Rear-engined C4 Power Wheels! Plus it’s a Gullwing Beetle with pop-up headlamps. Maybe this is too Oppo for Oppo...

My friend’s dad has one rotting away in their yard, and my uncle has one that’s been an ongoing stalled project. It’s an interesting car. Very polarizing looks.

When it comes to cars I verge on hipster style I must admit. I tend to like the oddball cars that many dislike or take no interest in. To each their own I say.

I have yet to file for my passport so that is a no go.

I love when cars inspire a what the hell reaction.

Haha, I'm surprised any are actually still going. Judging by the Internet many are sitting rotting away.

It's about on par with what they sale for. This one was a bit rough for the price though. I just wanted to look at it though.

I just googled Broadley, I can say that wouldn't be him but definitely me.
