Default Re: Pavillions-April Fools Day!

Jeff M. - it never ceases to amaze me, and I hope to never take it for granted, the incredible, seemingly endless assortment of nice, unusual cars that come out of the "woodwork" on a regular basis.

Cars of note last evening: That dual quad, 4spd '60 vette with white paint and turquoise interior was stunning- what a neat color combo. Looked even better in person - no offense Bruce!

The red 4spd 340 Duster ('71 or '72). This is a survivor car with low miles, docs, and original paint (beautiful condition). Car is for sale at $36K and is owned by Bill Wiemann - Let me know if any are interested.

The '64 Ply. Savoy (black) 426 Mx Wedge, 727 push button. Not a real one (started life as a 318). Paint on this car was 10 miles deep and stunning. With that red interior, it is simply killer. Car is also for sale - $75K.

The fella in the picture with me is Don (aka Mr. Olds). Knows a thing or two about the mid year Olds. Next week he will be debuting his latest accomplishment: '66 F85 (442 option), 4 speed in Autumn Bronze (a killer color that doesn't sound so great but is just beautiful). This is a knuckle-dragger car to be sure. Radio/heater delete, rubber floor mat, bench seat, 3.91 limited slip. Be prepared to be wowed next week. Never was a big fan of the mid-year boxy 442s until I saw what this guy could do with them (Don't dare tell Don I said that). Now-let's see just how good Xplantdad's archive retrieval system is: The twin to this car (same color + 4 speed, but cutlass 442) was finished last year by Don and sold to a local fellow and has made a few appearances at the Pavillions). Hope to have both of these cars side-by-side next week.
