I’ll be in the Great Southern town of Albania, so just a short worstoff.
Anisette wrote in asking if anyone would be interested in seeing her collection of Perth’s ugly car photos. Yes, ‘m sure we would be, but I reckon we’ve had worse here. I’m not sure she’s bettered this one or Bundyman, or even this one. Peruse the “worst car” category Anisete, and you’ll see real ugly.
Someone, possibly skink sent me this building with fixture before, but it needed the extra “vag” seen by Stu to get it up there.
Anyway, think of me in Albania town.
Gotta love a building with a prow and nautical references although some might say she was just begging for the graf.

How can a British Racing Green Datsun 1600 be worst? Outrageous.

I totally agree Bento, it looks a treat with the gold Minilites, not so sure about the white roof tho.
I wouldn’t call the photo collection worst at all, in fact there is quite a few rarities such as a Chevrolet El Camino, Ford Ranchero, Honda City Turbo, Datsun 2300 and an EH ute with sedan tail lights.
Although the green jacked up Holden wagon definitely qualifies.

I also agree. There are some classics amongst that lot I would be proud to drive. Old is not always bad Anisette.

Hi folks,
I just to clarify, I am collecting photos of cars that are in some way ugly to me; not all of them are “old” and I don’t claim that they are all the “worst of perth,” although I think one or two of them could certainly contend for that title.
I do realize that what’s ugly to me might not be ugly to someone else; ugliness, just like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder. I’ve had many friends tell me that I’m wrong for labeling some of these guys ugly, but I can live with that. I just thought that The Lazy Aussie might find one or two gems within my collection that he might want to throw in the mix here on his hilarious blog, which is why I brought my collection to his attention.
Thanks, Lazy Aussie, for introducing folks to my collection, and to the others who don’t agree with its content, I did not in any way intend to offend, but thank you for taking the time to have a look at my pictures. :)
