Neat ad Paul also love the Barris 'SuperTeen' Firebird too!
Didn't Barris create the Mod Top option as these may be what Courtesy Chevrolet ad's for but cool if they were anything more.
Even 50 Mod Tops sounds like a lot if that's what they're implying, especially @ one dealership?[img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img]

You know I get that Barris is a legend in the world of automobile customizers but, I have to say, nearly everyone one of his works is ugly in my opinion.

I'm sure I'll catch some grief over my statements but, they are just my opinions.

I love the batmobile!

The '40s and early '50s Sam and George Barris customs are pretty damn nice. But by the '60s the glory days were over.

This that were really cool back then may/may not be cool now...depending on what you like [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

The Batmobile owes most of it's looks to the fact that it was originally the 1955 Ford Futura concept car. George added a few nice styling features to it in addition to the corny superhero crap. Best looking car of all time in my opinion, but mostly due to Ford stylists.
