Local photographer took a pic of my car at the track. Notice the hidden shape of the rocket logo in the trunk with the ray of light shooting out the back. I thought it was a cool picture.

 

Coppercutlass - That is a cool picture, one of a kind!

 

 

 

Wow, nice pics! Wish I could have been there to add to the line up!

 

 

not mine - off the

Parents had one, purchased brand new and pulled a 36’ house trailer across the US in it, a few times.

 

That looks like a Redman New Moon, which is what Lucy and Desi drove cross country in "The Long, Long Trailer."

 

The Long-Long Trailer was my immediate thought also. It must be a nail biter hauling that behind a coupe.

 

A '65 Cutlass with bucket seats driven by Jean Paul Belmondo and passengered by Catherine Deneuve in '68 was featured in the following film which is no longer shown on Youtube in its full length:

Then this one...packed in like sardines...

 

My guess: Demmer Engineering shop/factory.

I wonder what the rear end ratio is of this Hurst / Olds?

would have been nice to meet Linda ...

 

Who knows, but it's definitely a "posi"!

 

You probably still could, if she's still around. Jane Fonda is, just in case Linda kicked

 

Hanoi Jane can eat $h*t! Here's a 71 for ya.

 

She probably does. Ya' never know. those Hollywood types are rumored to be into all sort of kinky stuff

 

Linda !

 

not sure about this one ...

 

Hmmm - Plate says: 442 UTE

 

Cosmic Charlie: About that 442 UTE; Hmm... Seems to be executed fairly well from what I can see. But I'm not sure I go for it, just yet. Maybe it will grow on me.

 

One from cordova BOP race and one from yesterday. I buffed the car last weekend. It's been overdue for 3 years lol.

 

Copper: Nice! Airbourne!!

 

[QUOTE=Cosmic Charlie;1291494]Hmmm - Plate says: 442 UTE

442 UTE on Australian tags is Aussie slang for 442 Utility. The owner also has ‘70 Texas tags that read RRX-442. (prescription 442). The car has been around locally for fifteen years now. Definitely a looker. I have a photo in the shop in my drive framed from many years ago. Good times

Might have Australian connections. The plate of 442 Ute fits if that's the case. The Holden (General Motors), Ford, and Chrysler motor companies built pick ups which are called are called Utility vehicles, thus Utes. They were usually along the El Camino, Ranchero lines. The front plate appears to have Australian shape, not as tall as US plates. Nice looking I think

 

The Holdens and Fords beared a strong American identity. However, they were dimensioned smaller, more like their European counterparts. The Holdens were basically just re-badged Vauxhalls and Opels. The Chrysler products were built on American-sized platforms, the only differences being minor styling details and available drivetrains. Too bad, we didn't get to buy Mopars styled for Australia
What's pictured there in your post is more than likely an El Caminoed custom clone, since General Motors themselves have never marketted any such vehicle

 

The last time Pontiac brought out the GTO, 03-06, it was actually a rebadged Holden Manaro.
