Oh sure just as I'm about to latch on to a 60 "500" they are out of 
popularity, but wait some of you may know this car, it won the Cole award at the 91 
convention and is  Canadian built, body #236. Still mostly original. Not in 
my possession yet but soon, and yes it is a "stripper", and I love it for 
that. Ed in Fla" 


Ed, 



If any "500" is in your hands, it will be or become a beauty! I've seen your cars! 



As long as you are "coming out of the closet", I will also admit to having a 500. Mine is a "Little Old Lady" '63 coupe with 1 option: Powerglide. I bought it from her estate with 43,000 on the clock. Unfortunately, she didn't take very good care of it, hence it lurks in my pole barn until I get time to make her shine. 



I didn't mention my 500 before, because, like my loaded 62 Monza Sedan, I feel bad when I hear that 500's are worthless or make good parts cars just like early sedans are lesser than late sedans. You know what I mean. Anyhow, I congratulate your purchase of this '60 and can't wait to see pictures of it! You have great taste and supurb talent with making cars look awesome! 



Too old for a flame suit.
