    i only caught the end of a show on speed, pretty sure it was Pinks. there was a chrysler full size car from the 60's painted like a WWII bomber, black with rivits along the seams. my interest in the car is that it had the nose art of the B-24 my uncle flew in WWII in the south pacific in the 528th . i think it mention the car was from Iowa. anyone know of the car or pictures of it ? would like to know if the owner picked the picture from a book or if he had a relative in the bomber group

    Or maybe it is Backseat Betty. You didn't specify the year of the vehicle, so I am trying a few different cars. Ryan did a story about Backseat Betty...
