...it's been pretty quiet!

I guess I'll fess up and post the info on that whale of a car I posted:

1938 Arzens La Baleine

"The first thing you notice about the 1938 Paul Arzens La Baleine  is the length, it is over 22 feet long. Paul Arzens was a painter who wanted a car that would hold all his painting equipment."

"...constructed in 1938, it shows subtle clues  of its origin as a 1928 Buick..."

http://www.leblogauto.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/09/pascal_michel/arzens_la_baleine_1.jpg

"This car of french production is unique in style and size ( about 7 meters long) Paul Arzens (1903-1990) was a painter and designer and built this car for himself on the basis of a Buick Standart of 1928.
About 1/3 of the total length was used as a place to store the canvases and painting materials of the artist. The car has the nickname 'The Whale'..."

I wouldn't want to have to parallel park that sum bitch! laugh.gif

It's not so hard. You just roll in and say, "I'm artist! Outta my way!" Usually works. biggrin.gif

damn... I seem to be picking the tough stuff!

 

hint: the company was established in the late 1800's, produced their first car in 1901, and the last car produced with the marque pictured was in the 70's
