Default My Uncle's Cars (WARNING LOTS OF PICS)

Hi guys, I'm not old enough to own a car, but my Icelandic uncle collects cars. Heres some pics. Yes my dad was born in Iceland, and my mom in Ireland. I go to Iceland 1 month every year He has many other cars besides these pics, he is rich from import/export. And no he is not a drug lord No im not showing off, he's just the man

Mustang in Black (MIB) -- Won showoff of the year for Cardomain, and ended up in a calendar!






The Ford Explorer





Lincoln Continental (car in which Kennedy was shot)





Corvette (long sold)



Mercedes (SPEED-- Icelandic license plate, picture taken in Florida house)






Corvette "Great White" Last of the c3 Sharks -- License plate is hakarl which is shark in icelandic.





BMW -- The kidney flaps on this to close to increase aerodynamics.



He has an old maserati that he is restoring, all of these cars have great interior, and the modern cars are suped up with tvs and such.

Also he has an old Jaguar that ill post.

ENJOY!!

... Its not really the Kennedy car. It doesn't have the bar that kennedy held on to, to stand. Its the same model, year, and color. Fine, I'll post a link to his cardomain.com profile And dont doubt the fact that that white vette isnt his, he worked hard on it.

EDIT: Heres your link --> http://www.cardomain.com/id/sigfus

EDIT 2: He has a friend who volunteered to do the picture for the calendar.

EDIT 3: Added pics of the license plate.

He has a house in florida, and a house in iceland. Look at the car domain profile, you guys are quite annoying. The lincoln continental was shot in Washington DC for my cousin steffi's wedding. It was the wedding car thing. Check his cardomain profile and it will give details.

Plus, the vette and the mercedes were in florida, check the background. The rest have ICELAND plates. The red vette was from when he was younger, he scanned the shot.

ANOTHER PLUS: Most of them have icelandic license plates.

Yet another edit. Family photos, im not in them lol, just more proof. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/678236/5

MORE PICTURES:

His jaguar (1971 Jaguar E-Type or XKE) NOTICE THE BACKGROUND, AND ITS SIMILARITY WITH OTHER PICS. Most of his cars have sick plates.





MGB Roadster he is repairing (IN FLORIDA) He keeps some cars in florida cause he buys them in the US.



Rofl my cousin alex is in the front seat. Alexandra, a girl.

ANY more proof needed?

I have seen the pictures of that black Mustang somewhere else, some company took them in a photoshoot. I can't remember where I seen them though.

I am calling shens on the Mustang and the Kennedy car. The rest look to be taken in the same place, but I'm still not entirely sure if I believe it or not.

And if I remember right, the car Kennedy was shot in was stretched..

Kennedy had the same car as his uncle has ( not the same on JFK was killed in, that would be like impossible..) but yea Kennedy was a stretched limo version.

plus look at the JAG Plate then the MIB plate same style....
