Mmmm.... probly not...

 

I'm sure it will.......... once. I remember seeing pictures of a MOON car in other literature. Not sure if this is really a Moon. There have been cars invented, often one off, with about every name.

 

I used to see people flash their moons from cars, in the early eighties or late seventies or both, when it was fashionable to do so. It was mostly guys. Not that I spent any time staring . Anymore, the moons I happen to stare at are the ones which I see when drunk. This is what they look like

 

I love the sepia tones of this one and the forced perspective.
What does the U.S.C.C.C. on the plate refer to? I assume it's the United States something, something Corps. Maybe Civil Conservation? I did a quick search of the inner-webs but that isn't yielding anything.

Orthmann. Those “CCC” plates were Civilian Conservation Core plates that were issued by the US Government in New Mexico to denote Federal plates. They were issued from 1933 to 1942. They also were predominantly issued by 3 departments, which appeared along the bottom of the plate. “Department of interior”, which looks like the one in the picture, Department of War, and Department of Agriculture. A few also said Department of Defense. Also, as a neat aside, all of them came with a companion embossed US front plate that said “This driver is required to drive carefully.” Hope that clears it up. Also like that picture.

 

I figured as much. Thanks Mercman.

 

I was wondering about how "Department of the Interior" was sounding sort of international and why I, as a former Midwesterner, have never heard of it. It was there for dealing with separatist gambling affairs:

That was an interesting read PI. I didn't know that.

 

What you also didn't know was that ModelT1 was once a closet automotive designer. Who else would have had a naughty enough mind to put this into production I'm telling his wife

 

BMW Isetta sedan deliveries are cool

 

Here's a moon about to happen, Sir

 

What makes you so sure it's a man?

 

I've seen a lot of butts and that's a manly butt. I think his name is Doug.
Although I keep getting distracted by other items that stand out in the photo.
