    They're called lusbies.

    A lot of Buicks have looked like fish. A '39 Buick looks like a fish which is catatonic after the ordeal of giving birth to thousands of early Crosleys.

    Picked up the speedo and clock from a 42. One of my favorite parts of the car so far.

    Definitely the hood ornament. :)

    Particularly as it helps me keep the car in the right spot in the lane !!!

    Roadster doors and that curve where a roadster door meets the dash rail, its magic.

    Dash and gauges. If you are going to drive a car you'll spend a lot of time looking at it and you better enjoy the view.

    I'm drawn to 50's and 60's dashboards. Especially if they are in period correct colors.
