WOW is this cool...Barris?

I was looking throught the local craigslist and found this http://boston.craigslist.org/gbs/cto/1388425241.html this thing is bad**** maybe barris built it...Any other info on it?

 

Those 70's showcars are coming out of the woodwork.

 

That is kind of cool. When i saw the number on the trolley, I thought at first it was 666.

 

I'm having crazy thoughts about what I would do if i owned it....

 

whaaaooooooo flashbacks man.

 

Drive it!! Just think of the looks you would get...

 

Oh man that is kool. I'd say its a better chance that Jay Ohrberg built this one!

 

I wish I had two of those trollies, one to***** on, and the other to cover it up with.

 

I was going for Carl Casper.

 

^ ahahahahahahahaha (crap and bury it). i disagree but thats funny.

it certainly has a "kink" factor doesnt it,....too bad its not a hemi with 2 blowers. is that a VW engine? i couldnt get the pics big enough to get a better look.

 

way kool

 

That is amazing If I was near that area I would buy it and restore it.

 

Huh....no!

 

Ad says VW engine & VW chassis ... but 3 speed transmission. WTF???
Maybe it's truth in advertisng, 2nd gear's blown....!!

 

You kids want some candy?

 

Shagadelic baby!

 

It looks different enough .. I was going to say, it looks like a Casper Built . .

 

I blew chunks all over my desk.

 

That was in Hot Rod magazine back in the later 70's I believe.

 

Everything though the 60's was cool and spot on. The 70's were kooky, woodgrainy, and acid influenced, and then everyone yuppied out and made ugly paisley street rods in the 80's. At least that's my opinion. There's something about 70's customs that makes me feel dirty that I secretly like them.

 

it's...... er-interesting..

 

This is the perfect combination of my two hobbies, Trains and Hot Rods

 

$10K doesn't seem out of line for it either, the guy isn't on a wild goose chase hoping for big money. I like it, I'd love to see someone buy it and drive it daily. Would be interesting to know who built it and when.

... Clark & Palmer's B/Altered Fiat; Roger Mears' Pikes Peak buggy; Mark McManus<WBR>' Tuneville Trolley show car; Ernie Parra's wild Volkswagen ...
google search turned up an old expired ebay ad for HR magazine featuring that car. just the owner, maybe or maybe not the builder?

 

It's perfect if you own an amusement park. Would make a cool tram for a racetrack parking lot too... Is it cool? yes. Is it "Kool"? I wouldn't know...

 

Needs a Rice-A-Roni sponsorship.

 

Who is Chunks and what does he have to do with this trolley?

 

Hey Fritz..you see this one?????????????? I'd love to have it..............

 

start one of those "party bus" businesses..

 

Chunks is my German Shepherd, what the hell is he doing in Texas??
