See, cars are 1936.
Can't imagine what they thought of that inSee, cars are cool, eh
I recognised it as I recall watching a programme where a chap called Marcelle (?) in America was hand building a replica from scratch, even that was worth many, many £s. Amazing craftsmanship, al done by hand from aluminium sheet.Can't imagine what they thought of that in
1936. Cool yes.
Very good.

Does it not have a tracked version??Today we are going to the former USSR, Russia to be precise, as the next step of our automotive global journey.
Despite much research I have been unable to find anything that can be regarded as good enough even to be regarded as bad. So here is a very bad but very, very cool car from Donald's friends, the ZiL-111.
The conveyance of choice for Russian politicians - it was only issued to the Politburo - and built between 1958 and 1967. The resemblance to Chevrolets from 55/56/57is surely a coincidence. The huge 6 litre V8 pumped out an astonishing 200bhp through it's sophisticated two speed automatic gearbox.
Various versions were built, including a limousine and a convertible, and it is believed that total production was just 112.
Rubbish but sub zero cool. Not least as Fidel Castro owned one, believed to have been fitted with eavesdropping equipment before delivery........

There’s a pattern here; you seem to have a love of cars that don’t go around corners.Today's Car of The Day is a touch more downmarket but an absolute classic. A beautifully proportioned body - maybe the rear side window is a bit clumsy - backed up by a very decent for its time power plant which made a lovely burble. And one of the rarest of rare things - a factory standard green paint job that looked great then and still does today.
