Unusually stylish vehicle,I can't believe this car ever made it to the assembley line!Ooops didn't read far enough down.Created out of 12 other vehicles?A crazy guy with perhaps too much money...Any idea how many miles to the gallon it got? Great captures,sadly vehicle in question has to be a two parter. :) :B eaver !

The Longhorn seems to be a pretty strange and very unique creation. But the Buick Skylark, now THAT is a good looking car - I wouldn't mind the least owning one of those (only drawback is that I live in the wrong country to have a convertible....).

Oh, we went there a few years ago!! What a wonderful place that is!! They have some amazing restorations there! Thanks for the memories, Richard.

Love the look of the "Long Horn", but if I had one, I would have to put a rack of Long Horns horns on the front!!! Awesome images!

Oh, old cars Richard. I remember visiting the Montagu Motor Museum in Hampshire UK and I still remember that visit. These cars are super and they certainly don't make them like that any more. Stunning examples. I haven't seen cars like this anywhere before. I hope they're well covered, both by insurance and from inclement weather. Excellent Sir! Steve :o)

Wow! Great photos, and truly fantastic auto-motive design. They remind me of Quats on wheels. Imagine- a Quatmobile! Superb work, as always.

I can not wait to show my dad this weekend, he is 80 and was a motor mechanic for most of his life. Great collection & collage.

OMG! What an amazing automobile! That's a cool idea. I'd love to try something like that. All the cars are cool but that Longhorn is fabulous. The idea of having a one-of-a-kind car is appealing to me. I'll have to check this out when we get to Texas! Great photos!

OOOOH's and AHHHHH's, Richard! Don't know much about them, but that long white one looks like something a really rich movie star in the 40's might have been seen tooling around town in. I can almost see it! Wowsers! Nice!
