That car belongs to Karl M. Karlsson (formerly, it belonged to Gene Fierro). You can find new pix here:

Dan - Year before last I went to a MOPAR show in Ft. Lauderdale with my red and white SF. Judge Fierro was there with this car and got a Gold Plaque, I got a Silver one, it's a beautiful restoration except for a couple of things. Even though the paint shows as a beautiful red in the showcase if you print a picture of the car you will see it has a very strong orange or coral tint to it. It's a spectacular paint job. The aluminum on the toilet seat has been polished to a brillient shine, you would think its polished stainless steel. I'm not putting this car down in the least, it's one of the most beautiful cars I'v ever seen and was very suprised that the Judge sold it. Karl is a luckey guy to have this car.

Dick,
I agree with your observations on the Judge's car..I ddn't like some of the "allowances" he had taken to "improve" his car...nevertheless, it does draw attention to our year,make, and model, and those of us who wish can aspire to the factory-original product without disparaging the modified examples..

Roger you are right but the comments were ment to be observations not disparaging. I guess I'm next for "observations" because the redo of my red and white SF will have some "allowances" also. I just hope it turns out as beautiful as Jason and Debby Bauck's SF and Karl's.

sorry, Dick, I did not write my last comments clearly enough..I was not calling your comments disparaging in any way. I will try to be better at forming my sentences.
