Whew. Hard to improve on the '61's styling and this one definitely missed the mark.

It’s great for tailgating to pull up some chairs and a place to put your plateful of burgers and beers on.

Definitely an east coast custom. (Remember the east vs. west custom controversy of the late '50s and early '60s? Cars like this one would have fed the fire!)

It’s a shame to have to vomit up a good dinner on Easter.

No square headlights in that era. The mod was either done later on or the square headlights were added in the 80s!!!!

Looks like the precursor to the 5 mile an hour bumper.
