    Literally busted laughing out loud at the Christine comment. Nice 57 Chevy, Danny!
    haha, good. You don't know how many times I've heard people look at the '63 vette and ask what year jaguar it is.

    You might be right, I won't deny that, but I'm convinced I can get a great deal on one if I'm patient.

    PS - I paid a little less for my Chrysler hardtop but it needs everything. A running driving car is usually worth ~3 times what the same car in non-running condition will fetch.

    Christine! sick.... what color are you going with?

    Nice, I'd love to see one of these in person. He's asking quite a bit for it.

    Whenever I see this car I always think of a girl from that era wearing bone rim glasses and named Gladys. Seems like a perfect name for that car.

    Doesn't seem to be all that much really, given the pics. Of course, with pics it's hard to tell if it's a bucket of rust underneath.

    Wasn't the 2 for 1 around the same price, and one is a total basket case?
