Trevor that's great stuff there.

So many thoughts.

One is "Who's brother-in-law ran the shop that 'fixed' the windshields?"

Another "Captain, aren't the other guys gonna try to shoot back?" That's regular windshield glass from what I see.

More "But I can't aim. I'm a left-eye shooter!?!"

I got another "Why is this dang windshield wiper so useless?"

I can't stop "Why are you shooting so high, my Captain?" "Because the cowl vent is open you pig. I should never have allowed you to date my sister. Shut it now or you will work the docks until you are a broken old man!"

And finally, 33's are so beautiful! That blonde girl, Marilyn something-or-other with her skirt all flopsyflying, doesn't hold a candle to this peach.

Were front bumperettes optional equipment or maybe only on DeLuxe models?

I had to add this "We don't need a license plate! YOU are the one in trouble!"

Definitely cool images! Love the round shooter openings, never saw that before but a smart idea! We all know by now LHO was a scam, 🤫! It was all FBI / CIA fabrication ! It was at least 2 shooters maybe 3 with one coming from the now famous Grassy Noll🤔

Did McGruder capture a '33 parked anywhere near the Grassy Noll?

I hadn't looked for that on his film........... but, maybe we missed it
