My little 78 Mini, with a 998cc inside.

That picture shows the Mini, the trailer (left) which she was transported in, and the truck (in the background) that pulled it home.

I'm still undecided on what direction I want to go with this one. She needs a little bit of work--but is right now roadworthy. I'd like to slap a new engine in at some point--but that's a few years away at least.
