Cruella DeVille, Cruella DeVille,

When she needs a new coat,

she shops at Good Will.

Can anyone knowledgeable tell me if those big horns in the front go 'awooga'? It's important.

I think he wants to communicate

Aww I was expecting a Technology Connections video

Sadly I don't think so, they look more likely modern air horns. So they will sound like a semi truck.

This is a replica of a Count Trossi-bodied Mercedes SSK, 1930. At least I think that's what it's meant to resemble.

Here are some photos of it.

I don't think these cars are very similar. The fenders on the SSK aren't even connected with a running board like this photo. Beautiful car though, just of a similar era (or reflective of an era of it's a kit car as someone below suggested).

The big foreign car drove itself, but I held the wheel for the sake of appearances.

Gorgeous car!! Wish we would see art like this more often

If vampires were cars.

This is very similar to a Frazier Nash kit car. It was the car I used on my wedding to drive off in. It was a super awesome car. Loved it.

Belated congratulations on having a super awesome wedding day!

Very classy merc 👌

The owner clearly cares for that thing well - the finish, bodywork and chrome-like elements look absolutely immaculate

Not a car you see everyday

sets as desktop wallpaper

Checkmate!

Is that an i12 engine?

[-] Son_of_dad@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Was it being driven by The Shadow?

[-] BlueEther@no.lastname.nz 1 points 1 year ago

Just love that it has a Disabled badge in the window

[-] Lophostemon@aussie.zone -1 points 1 year ago

Meh… I’ve got a couple in the old barn out back.

I live in a place where you see all types of fancy cars every weekend on summer and spring (we have many very fancy car gatherings). From old to newest super cars. It is not interesting anymore after a couple of months. After that you realize fancy cars are just elaborate noise and bad smell producers, nothing more. Expensive annoyances
