I try not to post too many new "supercars" because my office is near Symbolic Motorcars and I see as many Accords and Camrys as I do McLaren and Bugatti parked on my street.

This one was particularly funny because an lil old lady jumped out and went into the nail salon.

Im having anxiety after seeing what's outside of the North East. Cars rot out after a few years... I wish I could be out there just for the sweet rides.

I grew up in Maple Shade, NJ and moved out to AZ a few years ago. Literally, Craigslist is full of great condition desert cars. If I had an extra ten grand laying around, I'd be in heaven with everything that is available.

Even the ones that are not in the best of shape have little rust. And then you get all the CA and NV cars down this way too.

Great pictures, love the old Chevys.
 
Saw a '69 Camaro and a late 60's Fairlane at the same time on the highway. The Falcon was sitting in a nursery parking lot.

The topless Ferarri was wicked sweet.

The '67 Tempest was rock solid and extremely straight.

It kills me to see a Ferrari driven up on the side walk like that you know it had to scrape when they parked it. But that's what people do drive it till it stops. Oh well just my pet peeve, Nice pictures as usual keep up the great site seeing. That is the main reason I miss Cali all the great cars here in Texas I see a few but not everyday.
Mostly I see a lot of those stupid old cop cars that are jacked up with 32" wheel they look retarded, but that is just my .02
 
Spotted a couple of '67 GM A-bodys today...

I also found the Cutlass is listed on eBay. It's bid up to $9,500 right now. The car looked pretty nice.
