Just was really interesting hearing him talking about the event.

That's what his employees are for; he's hardly a hands-on type of guy, but, maybe, the car reached out and TOUCHED him!

Location: bishop, ca | Brandon: you can see the car in the first few pics on this thread.
It is just a sweet mostly-original 61 Newport 4-dr sedan, with a 2-bbl 361, but, it drives and handles great.
It's also very comfortable to ride in, as CHRY finally got the interior accomodations dialed-in, by 1960-1961.
Great highway mileage, too; over 17-actual, fill-up-to-fill-up at 65mph+.
I'll make a note to write to Andrew, tonite!

The Car seems Real Shiny, And Andrew said said he Detailed it, so Presumed Re-paint , From Memory i thought the Paint was Thin in places..
" Them-there's the orginal paint molecules " ... I have a PIC which suggests it Has had a Paint over in it,s Life... Actually YOU sent me the PIC.. It is the UnderHood Pic.. And you can see the Line where it was Masked Off, So paint didn,t go on the Inner Fenders.. |

Location: Hell's Outhouse - a.k.a. Buckeye, Arizona | Nah, I'm talking with concerns to the original, baked-on paint finish - hand (not machine) buffing really does wonders with it.
Hell, close attention with Meguiars old #3 made the '59 Fury 2 door hardtop I was in the procees of buying in '96 look like a Christine self-transformation with the original black paint on either side of both fins - the gloss was unbelieveable on formerly oxidized paint. To do it, you'd better pack a lunch and joint lubricant, but the resuls are definitely worth it. |

Remember the one looking for 2 ball point pens? He was in there for hours. Wonder what kind of illness he got? http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f310/Larry57savoy/Tulsa035-1.jpg Oh well, at least he threw me and ray some chunks of the vault. I also got some rust. I planted that stuff with the concrete and I got little gold belvedere buds so far.:laugh:
