I found the car:http://sfbay.craigslist.org/pen/cto/4041792035.htmlI'll go with the Cadillac LeMans lol if we're going with stuff that never hit the streets. A '59 Cyclone would be neat, too.

It is not the original show car. That I am sure.....seems legit

That is because you have good taste.Dang, that's a honey, although I prefer the 58-60 tail fins...
If it ain't got tailfins then it is a Jalopy."Tailfins" and "Taste" are, I think, mutually exclusive terms, in the same sense as "Music" and "Electric Guitar".

We've apparently turned this into a classic car thread.
I apologize for starting that.
Maybe we could start our own classic car thread, so those wanting to discuss the decades can do so.
I could choose the 50's design and ideas on vehicles, appliances, and clothing, as well as music.
And I guess if I grew up in the 50's I'd do that, but I grew up in the 70's.
A time when the Miami Dolphins actually won a game, Stretch Armstrong was a mystery to kids until the red goo came out, and
Happy Days was a good program, until Fonzie jumped that shark. :eeek:
I'm with you, there. The higher the fins, the closer to Heaven.
Probably gets the same gas mileage as the Cadillac Tom posted.You want tailfins? Nothing beats an original!

Same color...
My cousin and I pulled Stretch's arms off too. Kinda of a tug or war.
It was gruesome.
The 50's is agreeable to me.
Probably a bit less mileage considering it was probably a bit bigger than the 331 in the Cadillac at that time.
I yanked the arm off myself. The stupid thing stunk too. It had an odd smell like burning plastic. PU!
The 70s are disagreeable to me.

Yes, yes, yes and definitely yes on the last one. My grandfather had one and it was a hunk of crap. The engine was a pile of junk---if you could keep it in the car even. lol lol Biggest commercial failure until the Edsel. :rofl:
