Minerva hood ornament

Found the hood ornament challenge piece again, here's my 3rd try at matching Tere's awesome 2 shots

Here're Tere's perfect 2 hood ornament photos: http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2010/04/im-still-trying-to-get-photo-of-this.html

Cool and unusual trucks found on Big Lorry Blog

An older semi in Brazil, and I like the grill, full length and looking like a 1940's car design

Cool.

Looks like the back wheels also steer

Looks like water cannons on top, and armor covering the back

This and the last photo in this gallery are both 4 wheels under the cab.

It seems similar to an F.A.R. http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2009/01/three-wheeled-tractor-trailer-rig.html but definitly not similar to the Scammell or the Tempo, so it seems there might have been another 3 wheel delivery that I haven't learned about yet.

Mighty powerful little trailer mover

Yuck, very ugly, but does it have this design because that allows it to go under the trailers for reversing the trailer into a loading dock?

Best advertising on a trailer rig I've seen in a while

hood ornaments

Hood ornaments from Wavecrest

The things that caught my eye at Wavecrest 2010 (biggest woody car show on the Pacific coast)

I saw the multicolored background and shifted focus as interesting as photo composition and contrast

great hood prop idea, only for a woody

That is a whole lotta car

The clean and shiny paint on the dash in contrast to the chrome make a good impression

That is some beautiful chrome on the above hood ornament

I've never noticed the Plymouth ship design on a taillight before

I don't recall seeing a VW woody before... this one looks cool!

Beautiful multicolor flames

A new and unusual way to pattern the wood on the sides and back
