Yep, very nice, and the Fuchs are perfect.

And then there’s the bad guy’s black Charger from “Bullit”. The only MoPar I admired.

I had a ‘46 Ford pickup. I wanted to restore it, but found out it had a ‘49 Merc motor, ‘50 Ford truck transmission, and rear end out of something else, with the frame cut up and welded to make them fit. It barely ran anyway, so I sold it for what I paid for it ($125). I’d like to have that Merc flathead today.

At 16 my dream car was a 1962 Chevy Impala SS 409 Dual Quad 4 Speed... like I said, dream car just like the guy down the block had.

Yeah.

There were four factory modded GNX-Evo’s with V8’s in them that could out accelerate the Ferrari F-40, and the Ruf CTR.

I thought it was the best looking car I ever saw. Can you see a 16 year old girl in one in 1965.
