Lunchtime In Dallas

Instead of eating lunch today, my friend and co-worker, Rajesh, and I visited Texas Classic Cars of Dallas.  Rajesh whipped out his camera-phone and went nuts.  He was also kind enough to share his pictures with CATC.  Enjoy!  (As usual, click the pictures to enlarge).

Lincoln And The Living Garage

My dream car and my dream house, all in one.

1971 Lincoln Continental Mark III- Farm & Ranch Special

Huh?  Never heard of a Lincoln Farm and Ranch Special?  In Texas, gentleman ranchers had to have something more than a dirty old pickup truck.  This one is for sale too.

UPDATE:   The final selling price was $9,703.  Someone got a good deal. 

More pictures after the jump.

The Lincvolt...rising from the ashes

Back in December, 2010, the completed Lincvolt, Neil Young's electric-turbine hybrid 1959 Lincoln convertible, went up in flames.  For those of us who have been following it for the last several years, it was a hearbreaking moment.  Like the Phoenix, however, it's rising from the ashes.

As posted on the Lincvolt Gazette..."On a project like this, setbacks happen for a reason and we can see that very well from here.  '(The) barn's burnt down.  Now I can see the moon'."

You gotta admire that kind of thinking.  Check 'em out and watch the rebuilding taking place on their webcam archive.
