    The "bubbletop" roof was a BelAir only design in 62, but I'm sure you knew that.

    I moved this guy outside yesterday because I am going to paint this morning and the fumes bother him. He is usually on guard duty in the shop 24/7 8D81C95C-AAC0-4705-8362-0E4F7753FAD2_1_105_c-resized.jpeg

    That is my Moms house (lost my Dad about 2 yrs ago) , My dad was into restoring vintage bicycles from the 30's-60's. He would occasionally bring me things to weld, one time it was a rusty old bike that he wanted a rod welded to vertically that extended below by a foot or so to pound into the ground and use the old bike as decoration. I said "oh you are going to put this in Moms flower garden?" to which he replied "Oh your mother would never allow me to do that". fast forward to a year ago, I saw an old bike on CL for free, heck the guy even delivered it, I asked my Mom about putting it in her garden as a tribute to Dad, and she said "I think that would look real nice" bird4.JPG

    Non-existent model aside, the 62 just had great body lines regardless of the body style.

    I love seeing everybody's place.
    The coolness here isn't nearly as much to do with the cars as it is with most of you guys... yet.
    But I get pretty cool visitors.

    Might as well throw another coat of paint on the Falcon, too.

    OK @Rickybop what's the story with your dog and that deer? Did they grow up together? Any dog I have ever had would have chased that deer out of his yard. How are you going to keep it from getting shot during deer season as tame as it is? Did the deer leave your floor full of marbles?
