This is all I got.......great car....Corsa Cat back Sport exhaust system is about the only performance mod.....they are melodious...Had the covers painted and bought the rest of it to dress up the engine....I did put on the front SS mesh cover to help keep the big hoppers from plastering the inside of the air intake....I like how it looks....

Do you have the whole set Bill or only that sign...I made a set a few years back and had them on the road across from the house.....They read....By Our House....Please Drive Slow....Let The Little....Shavers Grow....Burma Shave....Got them in the shop now....I remember my Mom telling us there were signs coming up when we were on a trip when I was a kid. We would read them and laugh or chuckle as our parents would try to explain them to us....then it was back to our comic books...in our 60 Rambler.....those were the days.....

My Dad bought American Motors cars too. Even though he worked for Fisher Body (GM) as a diemaker he could get a nice discount on Nash cars because his Dad worked at Nash Kelvinator.
He bought a new one every 2 years. I can still see the mint green 57 Rambler he bought brand new. We broke it in on a road trip from Michigan to my Mother's parents house near Dallas. It actually had a REAR SPEAKER! We could listen to Elvis and Buddy Holly rockin and a rollin on Route 66. My kid sister spilled an entire chocolate shake down into that rear speaker and it never worked again We loved the Burma Shave signs Let me go out to the garage and take a couple of quick pics. |

Ok then. It gets my vote. While ALL the other cars in the show are beautiful I am voting for yours because: it has owner installed modifications, ie, something more than what GM turned out at the factory. It was a toss up with what Marcus has done under the hood, which is really really sharp looking, but yours just shows the owner taking pride in his ride. Hope that makes sense.
