You cannot beat the styling of a 59/60 Caddy - FULL STOP!
A 59 convertible is the next car on my actual bucket list. Cheers for the awesome pics.

Panelbeaters/spraypainters worst nightmare lol. The people who have worked on that car have done an awesome job getting the car so straight. The boot reflection alone is enough to prove the effort gone into it. My hat goes off to them.

Not a street car, sure. But Navara bush trucks, eat your damn heart out. 2WD, 20 inches of wheel travel and a hand-built fuel-injected 365ci Chev (not an LS, a 350 Chev with a 3/8 stroker kit).

Yeah thats the one. The pics I posted up do make it look like a model but it has some fine detail work on it. Love that car. Wish I could own it.

the style of photography on the mustang is called tilt shift, just not as extreme as you'd normally see it.
