Got a '33 Plymouth 2-door across the street from my house. He built it when non-Fords weren't popular......about 35 years ago! He's been driving it ever since. :-)

Here is another old favorite from about '67-'68. Tommy Ivo's "giraffe" car. Sorry I don't have better pics. Somewhere I have a great magazine centerfold of the car at Orange County or Lions.

That is the paint job that seperates "painters" from novices!

For a distinctly different style, here's another of my own favorites. I guess I'm picking race cars, because street cars are usually more conservative in design......and I did ask for "badass". :-)...
