Before it got sold my mom drove this 3 on the tree beauty with me and my two sisters to Death Valley to visit a relative. Guess what, it overheated. We were saved by a passerby but I'll never forget being stranded in DEATH Valley.

I love the transitional years,like '49 and '60 ('61 for GM). The '49s were the first integrated bodies,yet they still made the 5-window coupe. I dig how the Fords still had external trunk hinges. The Chevys came as the couple sedan,and torpedo back,which was really the old sedan. The '60 Fords were all by themselves in style,in between the 50s & 60s. The '61 Chevys were a '60 with the fins folded down,yet the first of the late-great Impalas (62-64). Gotta love a bubble top. The same with the '61 Chevy as the '49,they had so many roofline options. The carry-over and the new.

Me too. I'm not big on Pro-Tour style. I like that first batch I showed (and that one you show)
