Needs a more traditional one like this:

Why have a nice looking car meant for cruising and it has a roof rack (get 'em old man)?

I have an ESCAPE with a PANORAMIC ROOF and they stuck a roof rack on it. You know some MOE-RON is going to throw something up there and bust that glass ($$$) (no, I am a little slow but not that slow). Just think of the wind-drag on the BIG ROAD.

I never cared for roof racks.

That build of the black 55 wagon is so over the top!
Thanks for the link to the great build thread! Having a 55 Crown for many years I can almost relate!

I'll bet he didn't color inside the lines as a kid, either. Nice car.

KULTULZ · 07-21-2022, 03:25 PM

I like the way he broke the lines with color-

Help a short eye-balled old man out, is the upper body all silver or is it silver/white?

It looks like it's just the way the sun is hitting it.

Now that is a clean wagon -

The wheels look good (IMO). I think the wheels were 'ROCKETS' in the day?
