I was driving to the auto parts store last week when I spotted this gem rolling through the parking lot. I walked over to the vehicle when the owner was getting out and asked if he minded if I could take a picture of it. He was proud of his ride and proud to have it photographed.
I’ve spotted other automotive gems around the state in recent years. Below is a picture I took in a supermarket parking lot a few years ago that was enhanced by my son. It is an interesting interpretation of an RV camper.
And then there’s this surefire way to make certain someone doesn’t steal your wheels and tires. (But it might make quick getaways pretty tricky.)
Finally, here’s a pink love machine spotted in a parking lot in Ruidoso a year ago. Maybe the giant spoiler on the back is actually a sail that can help propel the car forward during New Mexico spring winds.
We seem to be especially proud of our unusual vehicles in New Mexico. I’ll keep taking pictures of native off the wall rolling stock and post them here. And if you see something unusual, snap a picture and send it my way for future inclusion on what will likely e an ongoing tale.
