Beautiful. I love original paint cars. How do you keep it looking so new and dry? Store it in a capsule?

Here's my newest rig.. 1961 Yellowstone Camper.. 16 miles per gallon hauling this thing 4 1/2 hours each way.. Used a quart of oil but not too bad (I don't think)..

Would like to see some of the Specs on that camper rig. I bet it drives nice. Is that '66 grills with '65 fenders? Always an education.

I might go for a crushed velour interior in that, but in a limo?

Mojo - you are doin' it up. If you had a wagon you would have almost as much room as in that camper. I call mine the Mars Hotel.

Thanks for the kind words fellers.. I am still working on my '60 wagon and hope to be using it for this purpose by next year this time.. I can live with the drop top until then.. Planning a trip to the NC Mountains in the spring then to Charleston.. Gotta sell some parts to fill the gas tank!

Default '66 389 bling

Not usually big on aftermarket parts, but I wanted to use the M/T covers and looked dumb with stock air cleaner. I had to grind the flange down and JB an adapter in to make it fit, but works well. Sounds better at WOT to boot.

I shaved about 1/2" off the base with a belt sander. Then used a Mr. Gasket adapter which I used up the last 1/3+ of an industrial sized pack of JB Weld to set it in the base. I bought it on E-Bay and it had a Rausch return address on it. Very heavy cast aluminum.
