Post "It's The Cool Wall!!!" Cool non-Citroen pics/videos
Not particularly Citroen-related but still automotive and cool?
Add yours here, whatever floats your boat. Here's some of mine.

These first three are all lifted from Dave Lindsey's fantastic http://www.socalcarculture.com site. Literally thousands of high-quality images from hot rod/custom shows in the SoCal area, highly recommended.
Image
Captured at this year's Mooneyes Christmas Party at Irwindale Speedway in the US, check out this utterly EVIL Ford Galaxie 'Gasser'. This style of car was popular in the early-mid 1960's and for me represents the zenith of drag racing history. The almost comedy rearwards rake was to aid weight transfer to the rear wheels off the line as despite power outputs of over 600bhp becoming commonplace from the 7-litre V8, tyre technology hadn't yet caught up.
Image
Another 'Gasser' style dragstrip refugee, only this time based on what I think is an early 50's Chevy panel van.
Image
INCREDIBLE 'Kustom' Ford F-100 pickup truck. This one's got the lot. Scalloped paint, airbag suspension (at a guess!), roofchop.....fantastic.

And coming a bit closer to home (and back down to Earth!), here are a few highlights from my Flickr album. If you're a Flickr user and want to add me as a contact my page is at http://www.flickr.com/photos/damaged23/

Love the 205 and the RS200 - they remind me of old models/Scalextric cars I used to have.

It's a V.A.D.G.E. thing, we wouldn't understand, apparently...

Russ, the worlds leading hater of all things VW, here's some I wrecked earlier:
