    Saw this on BaT. Thought it was kind of cool. The ad said it was plaster.

    Yes, A Kaiser Plaster. Just one grade above the Manhattan.
     
  8. Of course it wasn’t! That comment was meant to be humorous…

    The sad part is that I can't stop looking. I'm not saying I like what I see but I just keep looking. I wonder if he lowered it by adding weight?

    Can’t help but wonder how loud that thing whistles going down the road…
     
  15. Aussie car from Melbourne, Victoria. . If i remember correctly the car was showroom new when they started with all the bling. Joe Pirotta and Charlie Carauna built some fancy hotrods and racecars in the 60's and 70's . Allways made the front cover too. Heres just two of them.

  17. I think it means that you have to get plastered to drive it.

    Everything is just starting to hurt in the morning and I'm starting to make all those old man moans and groans.

    Maybe Autozone saw that car and decided to carry what someone would need to build one like it?

    I put dingleballs on the Plymouth a past year or two ago just for the fun of it. There weren't very many guys that even recognized them -- even here in Southern California. I remember them from over 60 years ago.

    My brother had fuzzy dice in his '39 coupe until he replaced them with the tassel from his high school graduation in '58. It was there when we drove it from Texas to California that summer. He was barely 18 and I was barely 13. What a trip! Much of it on 66.
