Susie wants to drive patches (via Noladishu) Death by cuteness. The dog always likes to sit in the driver’s seat.

King Ranch vs Patches (via Noladishu) You see, this is why Patches doesn’t annoy anyone parked on the street. She’s smaller than everyone else’s pickup trucks.

dear interweb

I have a cool orange karmann ghia convertible on my camera, just waiting for some scrap of free time to fish out the image-containing laptop and upload it. It’s already been a week, and at this rate it may well be Thanksgiving before that thing sees the light of day.

see you later,
Candice

1948 Studebaker. So, last night I was on my way out of the door to go to ballet, and I got a text message: “hey, there is a 48 studebaker at 7th and magazine. your camera takes better night pictures than mine does.” I sent Clay over there to take a couple of pictures, because I was already almost late to ballet (and I need to get there a minute or two early to tie pointe shoes on Fridays.) Theres’s a guy around here with a blue 65 Studebaker-this is his dad’s car. Very cool. Click through for a couple more, it has most excellent white walls.

1949 chevy pickup (via candice quates) Testing bookmarklet flickr scraper? I don’t really care for the captioner but that will do for now, I guess. This one was on the next block from the 2002 in the previous post. We have a weakness for red chevy pickups around here, you know…

Minty blue BMW 2002. A friend with a yard full of BMWs spotted this as a 76 for me. Stopped to take a picture of him and found a cool red truck in the process.

Fabulous orange 1970s fiat spyder 1800. I’ve seen this car floating around town since after the storm, it used to live down the street from me but I never got to catch it in daylight. It’s so bright. Looks like fun. Saturday it showed up down the block from my house on a stunningly beautiful day. File under “things I will buy if they show up on craigslist.” Old fiats are at least the kind of money pit that is cheap to obtain.

President Obama came to have a town hall meeting at my school (UNO) on Thursday. I was lucky enough to catch the motorcade at such a short distance I could not get a picture of the whole cadillac. (either of them.) So cool.

So, right around the time Clay proposed there was this blue porsche 911 on craigslist with a targa top. 1982, maybe? He jokingly asked if I wanted it instead of a ring. (No. As much as I love blue sportscars.) But I think this is that car.
