What better variety could you ask for between a Camaro, Ford GT, and a tank. There’s also an old Volvo hiding behind the tank.

Some other interesting vehicles from the first weekend of nice weather:

This old Morgan is beautiful. I’ve never been into cars of this era, but the plaid hood (Bonnet?) is amazing

First good look at the 720s. The details on this car are incredible.

New for 2018 Indigo blue. The angle doesn’t do it justice, but the crowd around the front of this Demon made getting a decent pic difficult.

While odd looking on the outside and compromised ergonomically on the inside, the simplicity of the Model 3 interior really is impressive.

Imagine the news story if that tank hit a crowd leaving C&C

That would be incredibly sad and kind of funny, depending on the damage. Granted, the owner was very nice, letting people take pictures on it and such.

I need a little crowd sourced wisdom. On that Camaro do people like the bumperettes or no? Mine has them and I’m debating taking them off. From what I can find they’re a ‘73 thing and mine is a ‘71 but if I take them off I’m either going to have holes in the bumper or have to get a new one.

I think it’s more likely the tank will run over a mustang.

Nah - Mustangs are far more dangerous than tanks:

I prefer to see oddball/off-the wall stuff at shows/meets. Not to hate on those with beautifully restored cars or fresh off the showroom vehicles, I just much prefer to see someone’s work in progress or oddball build.

Not sure why you’d be trying to corner a dedicated drag car?

Reality, I don’t understand all the hate the Hellcat gets for cornering. After driving one for a couple weeks, they handling on them is very impressive, especially for a car it’s size.

That makes sense. #1 concern of people at C&C is getting their car scratched by random gawkers. Who’s gonna scratch a tank?

All I’m hearing is that the tank purrs like a kitten ‘til the lake pipes roar

“no rust” - has hood and roof rust, other “patina”. He’s spent a *lot* on that, some/lots of it unwisely, but it *is* pretty sweet.

Does anybody know what kind of tank that is?

Possibly an FV101 Scorpion

That’s what I thought....but it’s painted in a US Army paint job...despite, as far as I know, never serving with the US military...?

Probably repainted. I doubt anything in the US Military used a Jaguar engine.
