    Long Island city also has it's share of weird awesome cars that need to be posted here, I will start taking pics of all of them and post'em here hopefully you don't mind OP.

    Thanks for viewing, and thanks to all the others posting cool rides from their 'hoods.
    I really like that red Porsche that Alex posted up top (sorry, I suck at Porsche model numbers), and every time I see a car on the Beeks lot, I get crazy ideas for new projects.

    It's RHD, so I'm guessing they imported it.

    It's sick just how small this world we live in really is. My gf lives in Park Slope, and I actually recognize seeing some of these cars on Flatbush. I see that GC SRT and orange buggy all the time. There is actually a 3.0 CSL that parks in front of her house all the time that I've been meaning to snag a pic of. It makes me want to divert my student loans into buying one of those.

    There are many spot on replica's built on other 250 chassis.
    I'm going to back myself up now and post on F chat to find out.
    I'll put the link up when I make the thread.

    I this thread.

    Thought I'd share one of my favorite blogs: http://www.oldparkedcars.com/

    Might be the fact that it's in Oregon, but I love looking at street scenes that remind me of my childhood.
