    Anyone else enjoy a pair of the same car? I started a thread bout 1 1/2 years ago titled his and hers, but most claimed owership without sharing with the wife. Always cool to have both halves in the game.

    Have done this several times with 60's muscle cars, but cool to have a pair of Hamb friendly cruisers to share. Has been helpful to have one just like the one you have torn apart to reference back to when needed.

    I know some will think it's boring to have two of the same, but they can be the same year and be different as you can see. I know the wife and I sure have enjoyed this pair. Any others?

    I just love that they are both my all time favorite model of automobile. But you know that! Thanks for starting this thread. It may not get many takers, but it will be interesting.

    :)

    Not identical TWINS ... more like fratneral TWINS. Both 1932 Fords.

    The Roadster and a 3W coupe.
    They both have the same running gear but definately have different personalities :D

    I've had five 55 Oldsmobiles so far. And a couple of 56 and 57's. Got the hardtop from a person that's had 25 of them and 5 at the same time when I picked this one up from them.

    The drivetrain with the 4 speed air cooled hydro is a kick to run, ain't they? You had the rare stick model as I remember.......

    Twin girls are better than cars. Maybe you'll outfit them with twin rods in the future?

    I had four 49 chevys once. now I'm back down to one. if I had money and space I'd have 10 of them. might even toss a 50 in the mix so I can have a hardtop.

    Hey Pirate, cool pair for sure! I give them an A+. Pun intended.....

    Wow Gasser! I mentioned to someone earlier about how cool it would be to pair up Willy's.......... Gives me the willies in a good way.

    Someone mentioned earlier about having a pair and wouldn't do it again. When working on either one of mine, it's cool to have another one sitting there to see how it goes back together. Even better than a manual............


    Bet you never run out of spare parts Ratfink...............
