    Wow.  Is that a real prototype or a kit car?

    My best guess would be kit but I have no idea. What makes me second guess that is the collector plates on it. Which I believe in MN is that a vehicle has to be 25 years or older to be issued them. (Which could be a 25 year old something that the kit was built on.) The other factor is that the car was sitting outside a European mechanic shop. I don't think it's some LS swapped kit car. 

    The white tag with letters and numbers on the back mean this and we're usually put on with white shoe polish. Which it looks like it may have had done as it was hand done.   



    Neat to see and stumble into.

    @Foghorn - I am not surprised by the above as you have friends in high places.  You may have to crank out a brisket or two to return the favour (nod).
    Better to be lucky than good comes to mind!  Hope the weather was great and the beach vacation as well.

    This seems like the appropriate place for this.  

    I flew fromTexas to the beach in Florida with friends who own this.  Don’t ask me for details about it. I just know that it beats flying commercial.  No waiting at the airport. Direct flight to a small private airport.  Only 4 passengers.  I’d love to say that I’ll never fly commercial again - but I’m going to do it on Sunday…
    1983 Cessna Citation 1SP 501 eight seater to be specific.  Nice ride.

    Takes a lot of acorns to afford a plane, aside from
    the cost of the aircraft. Brother in law is captain on a Gulfstream 450. 28 million. 3 million to hangar and support (pilots and mechanic) annually

    I just bought a Wok book.  You people on this forum are not going to trick me into buying a plane.  
    Hey John I am sure we could land that sucker at the Spencer airfield for Butt Blast. I will chip in for stocking the bar cart.

    Planes were opted in, the allowed is a matter of personal choice.   =)

    That's a nice ride.

    And if my plane contribution has ruined the forum then I apologize.

    From earlier today, '68 rs for those keeping score at home.  Unfortunately it did not have a 3rd pedal...

    Love the car, but I’m not sure the driver can be forgiven for not having sought out the all-coveted end spot.

    If I drove that gold Corvette I would park as far away from others as possible.  But I don't have @SGH 's $$.   =)

    To be fair, that Camaro has the biggest and heaviest doors in that lot, and they look like properly wide Costco parking spots.

    Good eyes @Ozzie_Isaac Those pics were taken at a Costco.  And I also appreciate the properly wide spacings there.
    An aside for those maybe not aware, a nitrogen tire filling station for customer use was recently installed in the parking lot, near the service bays.  Likely your local store has one too.  No charge for usage
