As Sir Lawrence used to say every Saturday night, "Wunnerful, Wunnerful! The little Bubbles,
or are they Bobels, really make the car opens up the greenhouse effect of the closed bubble tops
to something light and airy, elegant, even drivable. Love that color, it almost looks like the
color on my Tundra, Firemist Orange. Which I wish I could find in a touchup spray bomb, would
look good on most any Hot Rod or Kool Kustom!

Plus that color is to die for!

This is a good spot to drop a quick note or ask for help. If you are in a bad mood, this isn't the right spot to drop feelings. Thanks for understanding!

41chevy: Yeah I'm leaning towards the Torino as a Winfield /Starbird style idea car like the Ford Custom Caravan would have commissioned. Jan 23, 2024 13:53:42 GMT -5
