This was interesting.
I gave AI (Chat GTP) a 2-sentence description of my car and asked for a drawing. This is what I got. Not bad.
Anyone else want to try this?

Saw a Peugeot 205 GTI whilst I was out, wanted to take a picture but the driver was in it and I'd feel awkward π #weirdcars #weirdcarbs
A silver Daihatsu Copen, taken from the back.
Spotted a cute lil' 2007 Daihatsu Copen whilst I was out! (I was driving, photo was NOT taken by me, don't use your phones whilst driving!) #weirdcar #weirdcars #weirdcarbs #keicar #keicars #JDM
He doesn't have them all. My buddy John Jeffery owns a real-deal ex-Bob Sharp Z racer. It was hail-damaged on Sharp's dealership so they made it a team car. Still has some hail bumps. Come to almost any VRG race & you can see it. Photo shows John's Z with my Austin A35 racer @ Pitt Race #weirdcars
Red/white VW Bus (I drove one that looked just like this to college for a year.
Silver Ferrari / front engine V12

And even more cars we've seen in 2025 at the New Jersey shore (aii @ Long Beach Island)

Just what you'd image: slow & reliable. I like small bore cars, so I enjoyed it. Tops is 105mph. Predictable handling. Nice brakes. One of the other drivers ran it into a wall and destroyed it. But the owner has since fixed it so it's still out there!

Marcos V8, maybe a mantula it's a project car, very bad fibreglass bodywork and needing full restoration but oh what a tempter though!
#Weirdcars
Marcos V8 potential project at the Practical Classics show.
Oh how I'd love to get stuck into this!
A fella does love a Marcos as anyone rightly should.

Here's another Cheetah. It belongs to a friend of mine. He's too old to get in it now and just keeps it to look at. I think the styling is the bee's knees. This is a real-deal Bill Thomas Cheetah and not a replica. I think the yellow one was a replica.

My photo of a 1954 Fuldmobile NFW200 seen at the Florida Fylwheelers Show in Feb 2025
Car on a post near a junkyard. I think I took this near New Hampshire Motor Speedway. Car looks like an Autobiancini but that's a guess.
Photo of a Cheetah I took over 10 years ago at The Chatterbox Restaurant which was a cool car-cruise place near me. There was 200 cars there every summer weekend night. Super buys place. But they went bankrupt which I still can't figure out.
Homebuilt by a racing friend of mine. He has a similar looking coupe. Built the trailer too. He races a gorgeous and real Lola T70 Coupe be built from bits and pieces he collected all over the USA. A former English teacher, he learned all his mechanical skills after retiring. Super nice guy. I took this at Lime Rock.
I searched my Pictures folder for "weird cars" and these are some of the dozens of results.
What "weird cars" show up in your Picture folder of Camera Roll?

This AM I drove my MGB to our first local Cars & Coffee (we call it Cars & Croissants). It was windy, cloudy and about 28F (-2C), Not ideal for a morning car show, but we had lots of cars show up. Here's some of the Ferraris that came.

Pocono Raceway North road race circuit (inside the NASCAR triangle track) An EMRA mixed-class enduro with my Midget about to be passed by an old NASCAR truck. I could do about 100 mph on a straight and the trucks would pass me doing about 160.
EMRA "LeMans start" grid at Pocono Raceway. These were typical club race cars about 20 years ago. Still pretty common.
Pocono Raceway is on top of a hill and fog can always be a problem there. We would race in light fog, but the track would make us stop racing if things got too murky.
Various Lotus cars at an EMRA race at Pocono Raceway.
I haven't been to Pocono Raceway in years. Happily, I'll be there on April 18 for a Test & Tune. There are several, internal road-race circuits there that are good fun
We took these photos there about 20 years ago

Red FIAT Abarth being chased by green MG Midget (me) at Palmer Motorsports Park. The owner, Alain, is Canadian and he tells me he will not return to racing in the USA until Trump is gone
Red FIAT Abarth chasing white Alfa Spider at Palmer Motorsports Park in the rain. Me behind them in green Midget. The 3 of us had a great time that day, but the track is unforgiving. The Abarth was tapped in a turn during a subsequent race and rolled 8 times and totaled. The Canadian owner (Alain) has built a new Abarth, but he won't race it in the US until we are post-Trump. I know 5 other Canadian racers who feel the same way.
View from inside red FIAT Abarth as owner (Alain) passes my green #909 MG Midget at Palmer Motorsports Park.
Chasing my friend John in his blue MGA with Mack in his white Mini pulling away from us at Palmer Motorsports Park. In many parts of this circuit, if you run off-track, you hit boulders. Not a fun concept.
These are some screen grabs from videos of a VRG vintage race @ Palmer Motorsports Park in Massachusetts, USA some time ago.
The track is a tricky, dangerous place with little run off. I doubt our club with return.

Blue Austin A35 with modified Bugatti T37 @ Lime Rock. The Bugatti has a Ford Model B engine! We were neck and neck all session.
Blue Austin A35 (1.3 liter engine) leading black 1929 Stutz Pikes Peak Special (6.4 liter engine). Cars were equal in turns but Stutz was much faster on straights.
White Ford-powered per-war Special chasing blue Austin A35 @ Lime Rock. Austin was slightly quicker.
Red FIAT 850 Spider leading blue Austin A35 and blue/orange Porsche 356 @ Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix street course. The FIAT and A35 were an even match, both pulling away from the 356.
