    I like it. I'd wanna cage it, back-halve it and put steamrollers on it. 455 , motor plates. Twin hair dryers. Looks light. Wonder what it weighs and how much weight you could lose. Dreamin of course. Kinda like picking one item off each page of the Sears catalog.

    I used to do that with Classic Auto Trader and Deals on Wheels catalogs. Pick one car of each page I'd want in my collection....Sears catalog.....what did you do when you got to the lingerie section? :D

    DasRottweiler That is kind of my plan with my 62. Not a 455 however. 350 with turbos.
    Lucas thanks for posting

    It's a 2 door sedan so it's either a 61 Skylark or a 61 or 62 Special, the 62 Skylark was a hardtop.

    Ahhh the 'Stones. My dad had an amazing record collection and a monster home stereo when I was a kid...... the sale has ended for 5k. If I bought this car, I'd get the lights working, put another seat in it, and maybe a straight axle. Then I'd drive it.

    Funny, the gasser look was my next idea for the car with a straight axle. I have but a few albums left, some Zeppelin, The Kids are Alright-The Who, some Stones, including 2 album HotRocks 64-71, Neil Young &Crazy Horse. Probably unspinnable now.
