Holy.......!... Jake...is it a Renault 5...if so...they are built like tanks...

Love the message on the screen of the Renault, I wonder how many other Pelicanites first cars ended up in similar mangled condition?

My first car certainly did, I think I have posted this before but what the hell...

Yep! I owned that car for 7 years, even drove it to the yukon!

At one point I got a great deal on some racing parts from Archer Racing, who ran the Renault Cup for years. Headers, crossflow head, Weber 36dcoe. ~125hp. Very, very fun car.

The weber was really to much carb for the street, it only really ran decent at 3k+. Sure sounded great though

Was totalled in Montreal actually, got hit head-on in an intersection. Sad day when it was towed away

One of my "donor" cars:

32' sitka spruce sailboat mast. I won the bet.

Those are some of the best shots of the Can-Am I've seen. But when I open the site, it just show a few shots, How can I see more and purchase.

Nixie Clock...

Didn't Mr. Garrison invent that?

"I WANT ONE OF THESE"

I had read that his motorcycle-engined version worked very well, but that the Buick-powered one nearly killed him. Apparently the additional engine weight combined with gyroscopic forces (see related PPOT thread!) made it difficult to control.

We're sick!

Bought this last night for $500. Gave the 86 I bought a couple years back to my daughter 2 weeks ago so this one goes to her boyfriend. He's been doing the Happy Dance since yesterday. I think he owes me big time now. Someone gave me 2 others for parts also.
