c.1982 Datsun ZX. Portland, Maine.

 

Volkswagen Passat TDi c. 1995

                                

From Matthew Sheehey, in Northern Virginia: Here's a sweet VW Passat wagon with a stick shift in a garage near thePentagon. I drove a Fox wagon and a few Jettas when I was young, but I always wanted to move up to one of these. I still like the look of them, especially as their numbers dwindle. I've enjoyed your recent photos from Maine and Colorado Springs. Thank you! 

AL: We have posted a Polizei Passat from Baden-Württemburg, Germany.

1967 Pontiac Parisienne. Aneroid, Saskatchewan.

 

From Alex Emiond: Here in Aneroid, Saskatchewan is one sorry-looking Parisienne. Not in terrible shape..but  needs help. Aneroid got the name because an aneroid barometer that belonged to the earliest survey party was found here. Back when Canada was celebrating its centennial in 1967, this would have been one stylish machine...

P.S. The almighty algorithm  made this appear this morning...you might enjoy this video.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-JDPCRkTQp4   I suspect that Jay Leno has deeper pockets than the guy in Aneroid - wouldn't it be something to see that car given the royal treatment. 

c.1946 Dodge flatbed. Ponteix, Saskatchewan

 

From Alex Emond: Here's a Ponteix truck that you have seen before, but now it has a newer flatbed on it and is roadworthy again. Maybe more practical but I miss the original bed. It now has the same colour scheme as the Saskatchewan Roughriders football team, and that is definitely intentional. The good thing , to quote Willie Nelson  is that it's back on the road again . Roger, the owner, is a very good mechanic, an engine whisperer. The truck is newer than the floating headlights suggest ... post-war, with a pre-war vibe .  P.S.- thanks for Marisa Anderson - she sounds reincarnated- back from the late 1920's
