The cars of the '60s. Nowadays even a Chevelle looks great but back then, it was another slug. Yes, many cars of then were ugly. By the standards of then, yes. But by the standards of today, they look fantastic. When I look at this Fairlane, I think of my neighbor's Fairlane, that ugly piece of junk, a real wallflower. Sure, it was stock but putting lipstick on a pig which is what this here car is. But, today says it looks fantastic. Would I ride in it? Yes. Would I want to drive it? You bet!
A beauty!
ReplyDelete& the asking price isn't bad as the motor could have cost that much if retail.

The only 60's car that I deemed ugly was the 442.I had a '65 Hi-Po 289 in a fastback. The carpet reeked of bourbon. :)
