Most people seemed to prefer the 60, but I think GM went overboard the other way in restraining the 60's vice the 59's in their lineup, they just didn't generate the same newness and excitement - kind of like the 59 Mopars versus the 57/58's.

Replying to: berri (Jun 30, 2009 7:55 pm) I like the body (either one) way more than the more iconic '57s. But I had a poor clutch learning experience on a friend's '57. And I sunk it up to the axles on a soft shoulder one time too. But the '59 we had would barely go 60 downhill with the wind.   Thanks for the info/pics Andy and Imidazol97 - I've not been able to find any old family photos of our old cars, except the one Buick wagon from the early 60's.

#21942 of 23866 Re: Tu-Tone by wgrafer Jul 01, 2009 (4:49 am)
Very close... it's a 1961 Mercury Comet. '62's had different tail lights - little round ones sort of like an Impala.
#21943 of 23866 post too wide by imidazol97 Jul 01, 2009 (5:02 am)
I apologize for posting pictures that were too wide in my previous post. The max width must be about 650 pixels or 640 pixels. I forgot to adjust width on old pictures from my photobucket account before posting.   As for the Chevies, I like the 59 over the 60 because the 59 is RED and a convertible. The 1960s looked great in a two door hardtop.     If the picture is blocked, here's the link: link title Replies to this message: andys120 (Jul 01, 2009 10:53 am) lemko (Jul 01, 2009 11:06 am)

Replying to: imidazol97 (Jul 01, 2009 5:02 am) I'm not a big fan of either '59 or '60 Chevies but you could say that about a '59 or '60 anything (American). These however look nice even in four-poster form>   Replies to this message: lemko (Jul 01, 2009 11:06 am)

Replying to: andys120 (Jul 01, 2009 10:53 am) That's a 1961Chevrolet Impala two-door sedan. Strange to see in this configuration as most I've seen are the bubble top hardtop. My Dad had a 1961 Chevrolet Biscayne two-door sedan finished in a cream color with a gray cloth/vinyl interior. It had the inline six mated to a three-speed manual shifted via the column. His car was pretty dressed-up for a Biscayne as it had whitewall tires and full wheel discs.
#21946 of 23866 Salvaging readable messages by bhill2 Jul 01, 2009 (11:54 am)
Since this problem of pictures causing the right margin of messages to be clipped off seems intractable, is there any way to request a different view so that an unreadable message that really looks interesting can actually be read? I would try hitting reply so that the message was redisplayed in the reference box, but the clipping removes the 'reply' link.
