Was that an old Vette kit on a new Vette chassis?

That Mercedes looks way out of place. Otherwise—nice stuff!

Damn. Memories. I had a 55 Ford Crown Victoria that I sold for $500. I cringe when I see what they go for now. It was cherry, too. White over red. Everything worked, too. The tube radio used the vibrator and an OZ4 regulator. Hell, I even kept the clock running. It was neat. It would kerchunk a solenoid that slammed an arm to one side that wound it up, and when it ran down, it closed a relay to do the kerchunk sequence all over again. Clocks have always been a passion and I restore old ones, and one of the coolest auto clocks I worked on went in the center of the steering wheel of an old Oldsmobile. It was a self winder, and turning the wheel kept it pretty well wound. I think it would have been a hoot to be in one of the auto "think tanks" in the 50s.

My dad had the old T-bird with the bubble top. He drove it to work, and it was starting to cost him an arm, and leg in maintenance. Who wouldda thunk it would turn out to be a highly valued classic?
