CB1100 Monthly Photo Challenge

That is quite the sweep zbillster. In this selection I would have to go with the Studebaker pickup with its own parking block.

Wait till the end of a Texas summer ... it will look just like the International Harvester.

Apparently, you can still get parts for it, too!

Cleaned up, they look like this:

Lots of nice trucks, but I think a car would also qualify. Here is the CB next to my 1969 Mini Automatic, with the Monkey from 1974 thrown in for good measure:

My wife had a Mini when we lived in England , I did not know that they made an automatic as well.

Keep in mind that mine is a 1000, not a 1275 or a Cooper. So, I think the engine is originally quoted to have some 38 HP when new, which means that now 50 years later (yes, it is fully original) it's probably in the low 20's... That said, it only weighs about 600kg.

Acceleration is not quick, but I can get it up to maybe 120 kmh. However, running at 80 kmh on normal roads is perfect, and it just hums along.

I love it! Cars don't need to be bigger than that. It will sear four adults, but since most people these days only go with one or two people in their cars most of the time, there is ample space then to also bring along the luggage/shopping you need. I would love to get one of the modern kei cars from Japan for my everyday car usage. Unfortunately they are not imported here. We do however get more and more huge SUVs!
