Somebody wanted it more than me. Went to Alabama yesterday

Hell, that must be a record ? Did you have time to fit the exhaust or was the new owner in such a rush he or she drove off without them ? So, what is next or do you have something under your radar already ?

Darn close to my record.
Got this 61 Bubble 3 weeks ago and it went in less than 48 hrs
Also filled the 32 hole with this 2day

And it is already fitted with the big headlights down low on the frame just as you and I like them. Tell us about this one when you can please with photos, oh that is if the camera battery is charged up before a new owner has offered you silly money on it and it has flown the nest...

yep, that sure was a fast turnaround on the yellow Dearborn. I'd also like to hear and see more details about this green one.

Post deleted...

The green will B black soon, swappin out the windshield and top for a Rodwell/Wanless windshield and top (this top and windshield is 4 sale)
Gettin rid of the short 4 bars for long hairpis
Big and little steelies, my usual fog light, and then DTPOOI.

Where did it start it's life, Don? Shop build in Alabama? The first time I saw this one I wondered, "Why gloss black the frame and then satin green the body?" I'd be shooting it black, too, but I'd keep the Halibrand look-a-likes & rubber - just my likes. Will the body have to come off the frame, or can you do it all in one piece? (other than the doors & trunk lid off & gas tank drop, of course....)

Friend of a friends build.
All done very hi quality, the builder just didn't like it after done.
Wonder why ?(Flat green ??????????)
I'll pull the doors, deck lid, hood ,rad shell, gas tank, w/s, top and interior, bag the rest of it and blast away.
At least the bottom of the body ain't green, it's still black.
It's all personal preferance Rog,
Case in point: Tried to sell my Vicky last year for 2 months, repainted it in a week and sold it 3 days later.
Pics attached
Yep Green (shney) with a black chassis

Personal preference, for sure. I remember the Vicky well, and that it sold quickly with a change in color - that green (shiny) really fit the body style well, and while it had a certain "cool factor" the Salt Flats Utah graphic on the side really reduced the market in my eyes.
Whose body is the flat green one? I don't recognize that trunk detail on the body, with no formed drip trough.

I'm just tired of shiny bling in yer face wheels Rog.
Even having Dick (Rodwell )powder coat his windshield frame black
Goin for more of a 50's look on this 1
Will break up all the black with "Tommy the Greek" style pinstripe that will match the interior and the wheel color
The body is a RussnoMorre, (nice body, my last 5 window was 1) There is a drip trough

That is another nice ride as well! You sure have the nack for finding them!!

Thanx 40Ford

Uh Oh! What is the Avitar? Did you get another one?

No Ray, That's 1 I had a few years ago.
It got a lot of ink in the mags. Sold @ Barrett-Jackson
