My three favorites are all on the same side! The Maverick, Fairlane, and Chevelle in the corner. All three of them look very realistic!

What happened to the Australian Falcon?

In a vise, some times with a small piece of round rod to force the dent in the side.

I used to joke around with a Canadian friend of mine. He would tell me he bought something (in this case a Dodge Intrepid) and I'd ask how much it cost, and immediately reply 'so that's what, $24.50 US?' He bought another car right when the exchange rate was really in Canada's favor and I reversed it to 'so that's what, $25,287,109 US?'

Got to have a sense of humor about these things! ;)

Or better yet, British Pounds Sterling.

Or gold coin!

I'm just glad I'm not a yellow car anywhere near where James can reach! haha!

Love the old '40 Ford, for sale out front.
