Jeezus Ian, you must have eyes like a hawk. I was looking for the vehicle, as your post informed, and I STILL had trouble seeing the track.

What is a "Whipped" Overland?

Hi mate,

I only happened to lok at the add purely out of interest to see what condition the car was in... whipped good it appears, but not so much its not rebuildable!

It took me a while to see the track- dont know why i saw it, guess i just wondered what the shadow/shapes were!

Cheers,
Ian.

The Whippet was a brand of small car produced by Willys Overland commencing in 1926 in the lead up to the depression.

Tony this is a Whippet belonging to a GAMC member. The fuel gauge is in the filler cap and when the fuel level is low it reads "EMTY"
