The doctor does not want to tell us the truth!
He has been seen in Sweden driving the cars of his dreams.
Exclusive taste he has, the good doctor, 1959 is the year that appeal to a man with a sense of style and design!

Welcome back, Doc!

WOW! At least one '59 Royal Lancer droptop with some kind of D-500 mill (or at least the badging), and both with those great wheel covers. Those spinners were very difficult to "borrow" if they had locks on the valve stems, plus a broken valve stem makes one heckuva screeching noise when it gets in that condition late at night.

Good to see your ok Doc

You had us all worried, but I still think you were looking for stuff to turn your desoto into a 59 4dr

Glad to hear your back up and running Doc. The storm might have opened some new/old places to find that '59 Dodge you've been looking for!!! lol

Ok, I am going to revive the roast (it was just too fun).

I heard Brent traded in his frumpy ol' De Soto for a new red car with some snappy styling! He still had to pay sticker price for it.
He will now be known as Professor Prius!

Actually, Mikey, ... I spent the morning picking up the custom made "unit glass"
windows I ordered last week for my George Jetson style bathroom renovation. I
then met up with a woman to buy some wonderful Googie light shades for some
as yet undefined project. All this, to make Neil proud, .... living the Forward Look
lifestyle in a larger sense than just the cars. Afterall, it's just a stupid car without
the right windows, cabinets, and light fixtures.

No Prius for this clown. But finishing this bathroom puts me one step closer to
welding on the DeSoto again !

Working on a bathroom huh... I could of swore I saw you hanging out in a lawn chair at a car show parking lot with your new blinged out, red & white '57 Bel Air clone; just Jonesin' to get your hands on that big trophy to add to your collection. You said you were happy to have won, but wished you would have remembered to bring the little guy hiding his face, the drive-in tray with fake food, the Carls Jr. 57 number on the dash, fuzzy dice and the rest of the accessories to really pull it off well. Oh well, maybe next time.

Yeah, ... you got me. Awesome red cars (just like Christine !), trophies, loads
of trite and contrived. Does it get any better ? I should start dating "other men" too ...

Oh yeah, and since I last posted, I cut the roof open and hauled off most of
it, leaving just the rafters and the bottom 2' or so of the roof sheeting. Maybe
tomorrow I'll run the last of the shower and toilet stubs and put down the subfloor ?

Or maybe not. I could just take my new Prius to a Prius show and get a trophy.
Man, that would be so deep and meaningful.

What to do ? I'm so torn !

Love the lamps, googie furnishings and wall art Doc! Good stuff!

Will you look at the size of that trophy? Silliest thing I have ever seen.
