    I think the car was taken to Mexico for the interior! When you look at the interior pics, I can almost here "la cucaracha" playing in the background!

    Yup, I recognize this car - never saw it in person, but it has been the subject of at least a couple of posts... These are new pictures, which hadn't been posted before. Too bad there aren't any pictures from the front - my recollection is that it is more than a bit unusual also...

    Well, I guess in the final analysis someone is gonna post his picture where he wants it. But -- hey! -- if he posts it here, I have a right to my opinion, which is: aaaarrrggghhh!!



    Why can't some of these extremely creative types turn their energy toward turning out something neat, like a 'fantasy Hudson' that never was. For example ...say... a Step-Down woodie wagon (along the lines of a '49 Packard wagon), or a 4-door convertible?? That would take every bit as much ability as the tailfinned monstrosity above, and in the end I think it would turn a lot more heads!

    Oh Lord! I've never seen the front of this car!

    Where'd they git those big bullet b o o b s on the front of the car? Bah-ha! Sorry not my style...of course neither is the rest of the car and I like most customs!

    Dan, The boobs look kinda like the headlight buckets from a mid to late thirties car......Although I wouldn't have built it, someone did put a lot of time and effort into it, and it's not all bad. anyways, it shows a lot of imagination.

    Gentlemen! Gentlemen! Let us be the very soul of propriety here! Back in the nineteen-fifties, we called those appendages 'Dagmars'. Everyone knew what we were talking about without our using four-letter words, LOL!

    They used to call those "Dagmars" after a well known actress of the time that wore very pointed bras on her large bazzoooooms.
