Default Wow

The level of detail is awesome.



Has PHS gotten to the level the seller claims of knowing how many of these were made with a certain set of options?

Beautiful car. Seems very overpriced. And as someone asked in the previous thread, those numbers they claim (1 of 3), where did they come up with those numbers? Does PHS have the ability to determine that information now? They weren't able to get that much detail years ago when my brother tried with his 66 four speed, 2+2 convertible. It would be great if PHS is able to do that now. Anyway, again, beautiful car, love that blue.

I turn all the wing nuts fore/aft, rather than cross car.

More aerodynamic that way.

I'm a details kinda guy, so I like to get ideas when working specific areas of my own car. This is quite a car, but a few things raise questions, and I'm no expert but they did stand out to me:

Isn't that a trunk reel out light on the wheel well? Thought it would have the cone shaped lens, half red, half clear.

Power antenna mast base looks strange, not chrome, just the plastic end. Thought all full size '66 the same with a short chrome base.

I do like the color combos though I'm not a 'vert fan. Cordova top would look nice.
