The 3rd annual Fiesta De Kustom Kulture car and low brow art show

this example of late 50's design is a good example of how the modern design copies the best of the old designs, and how the new side mirrors only seem to differ by being made of plastic, and are mounted on the door instead of the fender.

 There is about 1/8th of an inch of space between the front of this M/T and the fender... how they haven't marked up, or damaged the fender, I've no idea. These cars frequently get a little air under the front tires, and bounce a little until settling into running fast down the dragstrip... to have kept the tires off the fender with so little space between them has to be a miracle of mechanical marvels.

Flip Flop or Fly was a song title, a lot of musicians covered this song, here's Elwood and Jake: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NgzdgLR6tl4

the sound is over a thousand horsepower killing the microphone slowly. Not worth trying to listen to.
