 Some cars are claimed to be restored, but how many have the World War 2 gas rationing stickers? How many have factory lubrication tags? I like that these are in old cars, it give that car a individuality that perfect museum car lack.


 roll top ashtrays. nice
 this is the first Caddy I've found to have this clock on the divider wall
 just over the far armrest you see the micrphone the passengers would talk to the driver with when the privacy window was up



 this photo shows how they mounted and braced the chin spoiler for speeds around 200 mph

Old cool decal for Bardahl oil, and they wreck the photo with the new sticker for some watch you aren't going to by or want to see a sticker of on a cool race car


 Right hand drive helmet bulge for racing


the racing stripes make it's ass look big... or maybe its the mammoth meats. Dam that is a lot of rubber




 I like that they tried to make the trunk flow into the shape of the car for aerodynamics. Or to keep snow and rain from working on damaging the trunk as hard.
pinstriped wheels. Nice







 great looking car in racing stickers or without. First Ferrari I can think of that has had hood pins that I remember ever noticing




 fiberglass body





 Hardcore rally clocks
 Air cooled brake drum out where it car do some cooling good! Good design feature
