That's a cool 401; I haven't seen a matching trailer like that before.

Here's a trick custom minibike. I think this must be quicker than a Benelli 180 Volcano if one can hang on somehow without flipping backward!

Gordon Smiley's March. Killed in qualifying in probably the most violent wreck ever.
Gordon was determined to qualify at 200 mph or better or crash trying. He did.

Fordson Snow Motor. I've seen pictures before, but not motion pictures. Very cool.

This one is a 416 Doka, and is worth about $45k the way it sits now. I have another that I am doing a full frame off restoration on. If you go to my web site you can see it under current projects. That truck will be worth about $100k when done. There is over $50k of new parts going into it! Then I will be doing a few extras to the yellow one before I sell it.

Can't imagine that bus would do well in any crash or, god forbid, a rollover
