Great pictures John! But isn't this the model where you can fold the top down and see the sky above you

We want to make pictures too but we had snow for 2 weeks and now that it's gone it seems we have more salt here than they have in all the Salt Lakes in Utah But spring is just around the corner I hope

Ron

Great pictures!

Ron, I thought about lowering the top down. The car is still out in the driveway and will lower the top since it is 60 degrees F today. but our cars are classy with the top up or down!

Just think about those with Hard Tops or Sedans...Do you want me to get them mad by flaunting that the top goes down? I did not think so!

We are expecting some snow in Denver next Friday so we are not of the woods yet on winter weather.

John Q.

You've done great!
Ipersonally prefer the 'wide open space' backround...spells freedom, in my book!
I'd like to see the exact same pose, this tiime with top DOWN!
Thanks for the images to dream on-

Whoops, just saw Ron's post..I won't hassle you for top down shot!

No problem Roger. I wil head out for some errands and get some more pics this time with the top down...


John Q.

No, really, not on MY account...well, okay then...the days are only so long, and numbered, as we all get reminded of, sometimes too frequently.
When Spring comes to your neck of the woods, I wonder if you'd consider a group photo...Belvedere and Cuda.
(trying to recall your Cuda's color)

Ron, did mark Evans get his own completed-car page on Showcase? Where can I find that pic he posted of his car among the autumn leaves?

No page for Mark yet. I asked a lot of people for a short story and some pics of their car but in the last 6 months there was not a single reply............ I can steal shots form the forum but I do tell people that I will make a page for them and it won't be published until they approve it first.

You might be able to find the picture by going to Mark's profile and click on "view members posts" if that does not work you need to ask him or Matthew where the picture is

Ron

You need some wide whites john

Funny... I don't remember wide whites on 59 Plymouths. Only about 2 1/2 inch to 2 11/16".

Wide whites may not be "correct" but they do look good!

I agree! I have some Brand New Port-A-Walls Wide Whites (P-A-W) inserts, but am looking for some taller tires, like a 215-70 R-14's or maybe 75R-14s to put on with the P-A-W's,

I have P205-70R-14's on it now. Hope to pick up 4 this month and have them mounted.

John Q.

Ok some have asked and I deliver!

Top down pics with Foothills of the Rocky Mountains in the back ground!

Cuda is FE5 Red but still not done yet, Which reminds me to call the guy who is doing the body work to see when we can get some color on it and instal the motor and engine on that one. (340 4bbl auto).

Sure would like that one done soon too!

John Q.

Ok enough about my pics of my 59 but here is some pics from the same time I took mine with my hand held digital camera and some people who looked at my car had a high dollar camera with a telephoto lens on it.

This gentleman emailed me his pics and wow! What a difference! His camera captured the essence of the car and the Foothills/Mountains in the back ground that I could not do.

After this, no more pics of my car on this thread...
