  12. I like fins as much as the next guy, but will kids today be looking for one of these in 30 years? Hope not.

    Here's my '59 :)

    Absolutely love the Tail fins... HAD to have a '59. Not a '58. Not a '60. I've wanted those fins since I was about 9 years old!

    Here's the '59 tail fins towering above the tallest building in the world :)

    That's a beautiful Caddy LaurieB! Nice effect on the shot. The one in the pic I shot earlier in the thread is a convertible, sold for $100,000.00 USD two years ago, at Barrett-Jackson in Scottsdale.

    I love it. Great shot and models. Can I suggest a title;
    "The Flag, Floozies, and Fins!"

    No disrespect to the galls, it just rhymes and covers it all.
