    I don't remember the whole story now , but this 36 was built in the late 50's early 60's , this pic was taken in 2000, hopefully it's looking more like a 60's custom now, I haven't seen it since I took these pics, I know it was eventually sold.[​IMG]

    Rudestude,
    I have been flipping through a bunch of "little books" I got at a recent swap meet. This ragtop has been popping up a lot in show coverage and features from back in the day. The car was painted gold when it was on the cover of "Car, Speed and Style", Jan 1961. I normally do not care much for open cars, but I am just digging this '54 Olds. Any history on it? Like was it worn out and junked, or is it in some dusty garage?
