Young Ed Posted June 20, 2011 Author Report Posted June 20, 2011 I kinda had a thing for wagons this year Quote
Young Ed Posted June 20, 2011 Author Report Posted June 20, 2011 Mini car. Anyone know anything about this? Quote
Young Ed Posted June 20, 2011 Author Report Posted June 20, 2011 It wouldn't be me if I didn't post at least one 55-56 dodge. This one was in the car coral with an asking price of 9500. Had been converted to 12v by a shop and had a hidden stereo system. Quote
Young Ed Posted June 20, 2011 Author Report Posted June 20, 2011 Gotta be the most expensive ratty looking car you'll ever see. 54 corvette Quote

greg g Posted June 20, 2011 Report Posted June 20, 2011 OK Ed, looking at wagons, what's next, minivans and soccer balls. Wife having funny food cravings lately????? Quote
Dodgeb4ya Posted June 20, 2011 Report Posted June 20, 2011 Ed, I hope you bought all 3 parts books for $12.00. I sure would have-excellent references on parts look up. Bob Quote
Young Ed Posted June 20, 2011 Author Report Posted June 20, 2011 Heck ya I did. The one is almost like a pocket version of the 40s dodge manual. Looks like the same format as my 46-54 plymouth one only about 2/3s the size. Quote
greg g Posted June 20, 2011 Report Posted June 20, 2011 Those littler manuals are for those small cars.......... Quote
Furylee2 Posted June 20, 2011 Report Posted June 20, 2011 Mini car. Anyone know anything about this? That guy came through Omaha a few years ago driving one. The paper did a feature on it. Here is what I found on Google. http://www.bangshift.com/blog/Odd-Rods-Arizona-Man-Builds-Running-Driving-Scale-Models-of-Classic-Cars.html Quote
DLK Posted June 20, 2011 Report Posted June 20, 2011 OK Ed, looking at wagons, what's next, minivans and soccer balls. Wife having funny food cravings lately????? I wouldn't mind having one of the 9 passenger wagon's that I saw there. There was a 64 New Yorker and a 25 Dodge Brothers woodie and everything in between. Quote
Young Ed Posted June 20, 2011 Author Report Posted June 20, 2011 As much as I'll get shamed on this site I'm actually hoping to stumble across a 60-63 Falcon wagon. Quote
Kevinb71 Posted June 20, 2011 Report Posted June 20, 2011 Thanks for the pictures Ed! Wanted to make it up there, but family wedding this weekend. Saw lot's of cars through Sioux Falls on their way to and from though. Oh well maybe next year Quote
Young Ed Posted June 20, 2011 Author Report Posted June 20, 2011 Sounds good. Next year its June 22-24. Mark your calendars everyone Quote
Don Coatney Posted June 22, 2011 Report Posted June 22, 2011 Least he could have done was fix the rust. Gotta be the most expensive ratty looking car you'll ever see. 54 corvette Quote
Young Ed Posted June 22, 2011 Author Report Posted June 22, 2011 Least he could have done was fix the rust. How can you tell whether he did or didn't? Quote

Young Ed Posted June 23, 2011 Author Report Posted June 23, 2011 And some more: Love the dash ^^ Love the cool use of the 53-54 dash and the 62 wagon is awesome too! Quote

Charlie Olson Posted June 23, 2011 Report Posted June 23, 2011 (edited) Mini car. Anyone know anything about this? Yep! That guy is from AZ. He also built an exact scale model 39 Chevy two door sedan from scratch and it runs also. It is a real treat to see both of his cars together. His cars are "dwarf replicas" and here is an article about him and the 39 Chevy: http://www.50plus.com/driving/dwarf-replicas-as-classic-as-originals/85803/ Here are some YOUTUBE videos of Ernie Adams Dwarf Cars: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=ernie+adams+dwarf+car&aq=0&aqi=g9&aql=f&oq=Ernie+Adams Edited June 23, 2011 by Charlie Olson Quote
