[–] cannedtuna@lemmy.world 28 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Gotta get it ready for those Whacky Races

How many gallons per mile does it do?

[–] nao@sh.itjust.works 21 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Looks like it could house a fairly large battery

[–] Zachariah@lemmy.world 37 points 1 month ago (3 children)

or batter a fairly large house

[–] cannedtuna@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

Or a fairly large horse

[–] Apeman42@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

I prefer my houses with breading over batter.

[–] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

Um, we call that stucco up here.

The Herkimer Battle Jitney's little brother?

[–] caseyweederman@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 month ago

Dang it, you beat me to it

[–] RattlerSix@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I came here to say it looks like an HBJ

[–] Asidonhopo@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Your link doesnt have a time code so it just goes to the beginning of the movie

[–] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)
[–] Asidonhopo@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I thought maybe it was missing, I will watch it soon. Always thought the trailers looked good!

[–] Widdershins@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah watch the movie it is still good

[–] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Better now probably, it was ahead of its time. It's much more poignant now after the flood of superhero movies.

Edit: Oops I accidentally watched it again. I started it for funsies waiting for the second it got boring to stop, and oops. Watch this movie, it's really good.

[–] ryannathans@aussie.zone 2 points 1 month ago

Not available in my country nice

[–] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

A great use of a 3D printer would be HERKIMER badging for cars

[–] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

God damnit I don't need another project

[–] DJKJuicy@sh.itjust.works 22 points 1 month ago

That vehicle is fucking dope.

[–] NoPanko@feddit.uk 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Seems to be a Chevrolet 5100 panel van, what a cool looking vehicle

[–] db2@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Cab over engine truck modified in to a panel truck. Could have been factory or aftermarket. It wasn't a regular production model like that though.

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago
[–] EntheoNaut@lemmy.ml 10 points 1 month ago

Yeah this is ridiculously dope af.

Love to see that restored, ganged up.

[–] WanderWisley@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Goon-mobile, both types of goon…

[–] Couldbealeotard@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Looks like a car you'd see in a Final Fantasy game

[–] mrmisses@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

I think more like 12-15. 6 or 7 on a bench along both sides facing each other in the back plus 2 up front, three if it's a bench seat.

[–] henfredemars@infosec.pub 5 points 1 month ago

Man they need to make chubby cars again. They were so cool.

[–] Maultasche@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

And how many violin cases?

[–] 0ops@piefed.zip 4 points 1 month ago

That rig is disgusting... in the best way. So fucking rad

[–] Poppa_Mo@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

If the Jeepers Creepers monster had a vision...

[–] tpihkal@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

That thing is awesome!

[–] brucethemoose@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Look at that rear tire! Is this a sleeper drag van?

[–] __Lost__@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago

Definitely something cool under the hood here

[–] FryHyde@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 month ago

Not nearly as classic as the Herkimer Battle Jitney

[–] Kowowow@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

The vehicle you buy when she says she's ready to call you boss

[–] Mycatiskai@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago

Repost that in vanlife. You could have a two bedroom in that beast.

[–] hOrni@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Won't this the car those gangsters drove in Whacky Racers?

[–] Taleya@aussie.zone 2 points 1 month ago

I wanna paint a dieselpunk train engine on that frontend

[–] sidelove@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Thassalotta goons
