The '61 Cruiser is ready to go. We leave at 9:00 am Friday. 160 mile road trip, most of it on Old Route 66. As good as it gets!

I like that Lark. Nice mix of original looks but vintage rhetro bomb stuff with the wheel and center caps and skirts. Nice look. I prefer cars that have an old school style and flare but are not OVER done. That or the FULL blown chopped and sectioned metal flake bombs.

just dropped the tail another inch. all outta room now, just two inches from the axle tube to the frame rail, and thats with no one in the car! got the wife to go for a ride, filled the tank and she's not banging on the frame, so off we go!

On your way back north, I hope you will travel on Route 66, stop in Pontiac and visit the Route 66 Museum. We also have a new Pontiac - Oakland Automobile Museum.
