    I have a soft spot for Fred Larsen's roadster.

  9. Malcolm beat me to it, the roadster Pete built for his dad is a all time favorite of mine, the car is simple but it just looks right and the color is spot on. HRP

  10. Bobby's Deuce roadster is a good representation for the color green. HRP

    Here's mine. Kids pedal car with mobility chair guts. Sure beats walking at a big show.

    Yes, the wheelie bars are for a reason. Broken 2 sets already

    Yup,today is one of the few days,I like green. After getting out of U S Army,I though I'd had enough green.
    I avoided green for a bit. But did even ended up painting two cars SeaFoam Green,after my wife saw the color at a car show an was in love with it.. Was able to get two cars from one gal. That I thought of as very high $ paint at the time!
    Even I had to admit they looked super good.
    The green car she fell in love with was Dean Jeffries, "Mantaray," when it had been in Miami, @ Bayfront Park Auditorium.
    I had seen photos when it was other colors. But it was a light pearl Seafoam Green in Miami,she asked the lady that was showing off Mantaray at the display platefrom.
    I looked for a pic in the color,this one may of been when it was Seafoam.

    Hello,

    The last time I saw this beautiful convertible was at the 2019 Price Transfer Automobilia set up days for the latest version of the Lions Dragstrip Museum. I was walking down the rows of cars and something stuck out in my vision. This green convertible stood out amongst the other non green hot rods and sedans.

    I was told that this was one of the latest displays for the outstanding Price Transfer Automobilia Collection. It certainly was pretty outstanding in my book.

    Green is the color of Envy, so this one naturally is called "The Green Envy."

    Dave Lane drives George Poteet's unfinished green w. flames '32.jpg

    Here's a green little go'er.
    I believe this was George Poteet's back in the last last decade ...think Dave Lane was still finishing.

    But holyshmoly... note the nice black deuce behind (that was once) owned by a certain particular ASSHOLE that owes me $383 and 2 1/2 years of subscription !!

    Sorry Ryan ...it seems that the Irish in me just can't let it go :D

    A hot-tempered man lives in strife
    With his friends, his co-workers and wife
    But a man slow to rage
    Will reap peace as his wage
    From his youth to the end of his life

    Happy St. Pat's too ya all !! S2

    A couple of shots of my old Belair. I have a thing for green. Even my bride is Irish.

    @Ryan what about a couple photos of your 65 Riviera? Still my favorite to date. The stance on that with the Borranis was killer.

    I couldn't find the thread but isn't one of the guys working on restoring an old show circuit car T bucket with lanterns on it? It's green right?
