Another reason I hate to see cars that I've owned years later...To see the car in that condition was very depressing.
And for some reason the only front turn signals they could find to hack into the front end came from the cheapest trailer manufacturer.

We Entered the 67 Convert with 21 BRMs in it at bug in 23 In Worst of Show it was also hittlers 91st Birthday that Day We Wrote on the Hood Happy 91st Birthday Adolf and also wrote Where else can you get a 67 Convert and 21 Brms All For $15,000.00 Today Only  The Funny Part is we did it as a Joke And Ron Barrett Owner of Barrett Ent. In Azusa Wanted To Buy It  we pulled him to the side and told him it was a Joke and the wheels were not for sale if you notice the DSK sticker is upside down on the Wing window  we had chains going threw the wheels so they did not disapear but we did have one guy steal some wheel spacers for the lugs Lucky for him we did not catch him.

 Shocked Sad how could you say such a thing?? Cheesy  The current owner is a guy I've sold parts to over the last fifteen years.  I had no idea that was the same car!  I've asked him when he's going to bring the car out to an event but he showed no interest saying that he built it for his own pleasure and not for others to drool over.  Hopefully, the new (extremely wealthy Roll Eyes) owner will be different.

Jim, I dig that shot of Gary's 'vert. Back then, I thought that was the best lookin' early 'vert on the road. Especially when it had the alloys or the BRMs. But mainly 'cause it was the only Cal Look car that I saw with the body trim still intact. Everyone, me included, dechromed our cars.

WOW... looking at that pic brings back other memories. Check out the old Shell and Sambo's signs in the background. Wish the gas price board was visible. I'm guessing it was around 65-85¢ gal. Of course, minimum wage was $2.50 hr. too.
