Near Water


How about

Your car fitted with an accessory or part from a different make of car altogether
eg: a branded Holden part on your Ford, a Ford part on your Holden, a Toyota part on your Ford, etc...I'm expecting pictures of hot rods that are older-style "bitzers" to be popular with this one...

Don't know about a hot rod but this is my little dirt track car. We call it escodore see if you can figure why? And no it's not just the engine.



Your car in a strange picture, that when we look at it we say 'what the'.

It's a fun little car to drive, the whole thing is commodore running gear and suspension. If you look at the guards they have commodore arches. It's a stock VN motor and it did a mid 13 down the quarter. Handles awesome on the dirt and powers straight out of the corners, when out sideways.
