Right on, Rick... I hear ya. But the older that I get, the more I hate whitewalls on any car, now. To me, they're just too played out and I'm not twenty anymore... so my viewpoint on everything is less is much more. I really dig understated cars (and everything else in my life), these days.
To each their own.
That black car really IS a work of art, though.
Yes It looks great... If I ever do another hot rod, it will be a tub... You can't take a bunch of friends in a roadster
