Nice! That first one is the best

What did you use to resize your images though, didn't seem like a great job...

EDIT: NM, hosted on photobucket, their quality and resizing aren't the best.

Yeah photobucket sucks.

Owner told me that he's put over a 100 grand into restoring the car. Everything is original except the tires. Also said some older guy offered hin 250 grand for the car earllier that day.

Ohhhh and more pics of the car for you to drool over

Dion you're tormenting me. That car and a particular model of ElDorado I can't quite remember are my fave American cars. One of my neighbors has a royal blue Shelby but it rarely leaves his garage. Okay now I remember it's the 59 Eldorado Biarritz. Couldn't remember "Biarritz" duh. Obnoxious looking car ,that's what makes it fun.

love the Chevelles. I could have bought a 69 396SS like the blue one there. I regret not making that purchase. My best friend in high school had a 72 454SS. Pass everything but a gas station.

Dangit I forgot about the cars this year - usually go visit my parents (who live in High River) and then check them out. Do you have any good interior shots Dion? There are some custom jobs I've seen the last few years that are just as beautiful as the exteriors of those cars - I especially liked the one I saw two years ago that was all Mickey Mouse theme, including a Mickey-head shift knob. Un-frickin-believable.

I'd buy the Fury (Christine) in a minute if I had the cash. I love those old boats - they knew how to build a car with head and legroom in those days!

Sorry no interior shots - too many damn people today looking besides me. It was tough enough getting a pic without someone walking in front of you.

I agree that custom jobs on the interior of some were amazing like this PT Cruiser.
