    I've been taking a hard look at this. Thinging about it even.

    Is it my imagination, or is the front clip a different color from the rest of the car?

    I don't think so. That seems to be where the side chrome is, on the first pic, right? if you look closely, the paint under the chrome seems the same on the fender and door, and so does the paint on top...but if you look at just the door, the paint on the top and bottom look different. i think it's just the body contour.


    Cars I want, no particular order:

    1940 Ford Coupe with a Mercury flathead, 24 stud heads
    1964 Buick Riviera
    1953 Buick Skylark
    1972 Buick Riviera GS Stage1
    1970 Buick GS Stage1 Convertible (a real one, lol)
    1970 Buick GSX Stage1 fourspeed, M21, White
    1970 Ford Torino GT convertible
    1967 Buick GS400
    1971 Dodge Challenger, 426 Hemi, 4 speed with a pistol grip, painted like Kowalski's car
    1970 Plymouth Road Runner, 440 Magnum
    1967 Lamborghini Miura
    1967 Chevy Corvette Roadster, 427, four speed
    1969 Chevy Camaro
    1967 Chevy Camaro
    1967 or '68 Pontiac Firebird 400 convertible
    1969 Pontiac Trans Am convertible
    1970 Pontiac GTO Ram Air IV
    a "swiss cheese" Pontiac catalina
    a "super stock" plymouth



    I mean, this list could go on for days:grin:

    I think maybe our gonkulator monitors are different. I definitely see a different color on the front clip.

    Not to rule out a bid later on. But I'm concerned about that aspect. Several days to go last time I looked.

    Call me crazy but I don't like the white letter tires on the inside either. Should be straight blackwalls.

    Incidentally, you want too many cars. Just think about the batteries, tires, and license plates that requires. Not to mention fixing mechanical problems. I dred to think about it.

    msc66 still no vacuum

    '63-'65 Riv - It would have to be faaast!!! A monster!

    '66 Sport wagon - Daily driver (they did make a sport wagon in '66 didn't they? I've never actually seen one)

    What would be the Buick equivalent of a '61 Impala bubble top? It would have to be super cool. Anyone have a picture?

    Oh yeh, and a '66-'67 skylark/special done up like a 60's Trans Am car! I might have to make that my next project.

    They certainly did make a '66 SportWagon

    I believe '64 was the first year.....64-67 had split Vista roofs.....68/69 had a one piece.
