A couple guys who work as snowmobile mechanics took the stuff that had been laying around the shop and made this .... applause! http://www.automotto.org/entry/snowmobile-mechanics-turn-station-junk-into-snowmobile-chopper/Ever heard of Norm's Henway? I just found it in the late 70's Hot Rod
I can't find where I pulled the above image from, Brandon Flannery took the photo, and says the image was probably from the HAMB / JalopyJournal
It's not like Gray wrote, (click on the image for a very large readable size) this wasn't a restoration, the Henway is a creation. A play on the old joke, what's a Henway... about 3 pounds.The rest of these images are from the Jalopy Journal and obviously not the same vehicle
I just noticed that all 3 of these appear to have different rear windows
Isolation in remote islands keeps old vehicles around in great numbers, like Cuba. But did you hear about the Maltese busses?
a commentor says "by March 2011, sadly most of them will come to end when the proposed transport reform takes place in the coming year.You can help to save the Malta Buses by signing the petition below:http://www.petitiononline.com/savdbss/petition.html
so come see and ride them while you can!!

This is the 1964 Indy race car of Smokey Yunick, named the Hurst Floor Shifter Special... a momentary loss of traction caused it to run into a wall and never get into the race, Bobby Johns was drivingVia: http://forum.exile.fr/viewtopic.php?pid=157789
