    Can't help but wonder if the owner is a member. If not, I say lets hunt them down and find them an internet connection. :D

    He's a member on Classic Olds IIRC.
    My Vista had a bunch of parts from Supercars Unlimited on it.

    That is gorgeous. And if you don't want to spend the money on new wood grain, this is the way to go. It looks fantastic!

    hey, hey, hey/ and a cautionary tale, of sorts.

    The two cars in the photo are to die for!!! :1st: Use to have a friend who had a 67 Cutlass convertible. Had it for a while. Said he was thinking about replacing it. And, if and when he did, he'd give it to me. Cuz he knew how much I liked it... (y) ...One day, he and my brother showed up in a different car. An early 70's Plymouth Satellite. My friend got it at a Police Auction. It had been a Narc Car. He was really happy with it... I asked about the Cutlass. And he told me a story about how he and my brother had gotten drunk, cruised out into the Mojave desert and decided to see if seatbelts really worked. They put their seatbelats on and he rammed it into a telephone pole at 55 mph. :49: And, gosh darn it all,,, seatbelts really do work... :(

    Very nice Vista. But, I really don't like the grille painted blue.

    What a waste of a good wagon, Taranau. I'm :mad: that they would do such a thing!

    I would prefer the grille to be either black or chromed. As for the rest of it, I really like the colour scheme they chose and it really works for it.
