Woodward 2009: The Weird and the Wonderful
Woodward's weird and wonderful - Click above for high-res image gallery
Everybody has their own definition of cool, and the Woodward Dream Cruise may be the ultimate microcosm for the wide-ranging tastes of auto enthusiasts. While most cruisers show up with classic muscle cars or perfectly preserved classics, automotive outliers seem to prefer more abstract expressions. We just so happen to love both – because it just isn't a party without the guy with the lampshade on his head.
The 2009 show was no different from past Dream Cruises, with interesting rollers like the bizarre and fascinating BMW Isetta to the disturbing and controversial harbinger of death. If you want the precursor to the DeLorean, Woodward gives you the Bricklin SV1. Heck, you can have the classic Time Machine too. While we know they may be passe, how can you lose with elephantitis of the Truck Nutz?

I can't believe that you did not get any photos of the horrid wooden cars that looked like they were made out of mahogany.

Number 74 is an UltraVan. UltraVans are Corvair-powered RVs built in the '60s.

The Aerostar-a-mino is HAWT! I also want the mint AMC SX-4 and the Fiat Jolly.

Modern rendition of the E100 - a cab over pickup based on the E100 van in the mid 60s

That is Scion xB is exactly what I thought it was when it first came out. A toaster on wheels.

What's up with all the sand rails - can you even make those street legal ?
At least now we all can see exactly how VW Bug front suspension works.
