    I love Oatsmobiles;I have a custom '51 Holiday coupe that's been in the works for 15 years,just need the bread to do the interior and chrome. Love your car.
     
  7. Barefoot,I think you misunderstood.I didnt say it was painful that you drive it without air,I meant it was painful to hear the word "Airbags" being used with such a killer car.I was trying break your balls a little because you have airbags;)I dig the car alot man.

  13. Beautiful....really beautiful (even though I prefer the black). It needs some older CA plates I think.

    love the new color... brings out a lot of the curves and body lines that the black kinda hid... very traditional looking custom.. great job.

    Cause I can do it in less than a minute...
    Just to see how it looks without them.
    Personally I feel the car don't need them. The stainless rocker panel trim piece creates the perfect effect for it. Now if the car was not chopped... then the Lake pipes would be perfect.

    But... I like them both ways, if it where mine I would not use them, I'm more of a late 1940's early 1950's custom car style. And most customs did not run lake pipes back then...
