    The back of it looks like a fiberglass boat.

    Same here, I want steel over my head.

    Out of approx 200 cars, I've owned one convert, a '66 Plymouth Fury. Badly ragged out, I bought it to flip.

    I've seen Don's car at few MCCI Roundup's and to be sure it's quite unique. Don't believe there's another in this country like it, maybe not on the planet. If so, I'd like to see it!

    "Don's" has so much more coherent dimensions or maybe the early one was built with different sensibilities ...
    .

    I was impressed until I saw the before pics' - now I'm super impressed. The detailed original small block six, big bumpers and 'Pony' interior accents makes for a nice balance .
    .

    wondering who noticed a single side pipe in the old custom pics' indicated it also retained the inline motor theme ?
    .
    BTW - waddda ya call those tailights on "Don's"?.

    .hav fun
