I was hoping that someone else would jump in with an ID, but I guess that’s not going to happen.

 

This one is a 1954 Chevrolet Bel Air sedan. When I first saw it, I thought it might be the other side of Car #1, as the ’53 and ’54 have the same body and it’s easy to interchange trim. After taking a closer look, though, it is a different car (outside mirrors were the key…). As with the first two cars, all the ‘letter’ script appears to have been removed from this one – kinda strange, in my estimation.

Another amazingly cool car photo, GarryRF!  Wish I could take that one for a spin.

Since there are so many (either 2 or 3… ) Cappuccinos in the U.S., most of us have never seen one. The only reason I even knew about them was this article http://jalopnik.com/5260426/19…r-a-diminutive-11990 that appeared on Jalopnik back in 2009. It took me a while to find it. There have been a couple of short articles since then, but nothing in depth. The only other internet reference I could find was a page on Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suzuki_Cappuccino

 

Even with a turbocharger and intercooler, 100 HP out of 657 cc is pretty impressive. Do you autocross or rally it?

 

In any case – it’s a nice car! I’m sure you have fun with it.

Suzuki Cappuccino – maybe 1995?

The View North

I was visiting a friend, and this was the view from their house. I could understand why they built their house facing this direction. I was taken by the beauty!
