  3. BITCHEN' '40 Ford, Lee. You checked all the boxes perfectly: color, engine, stance, wheels & tires, interior color, mirror smooth paint finish, build quality is EXCELLENT!

  16. I just checked in my copy of the book "Grumpy's Toys". The Black Arrow was a Belvedere I Super Stock according to the original bill of sale and a picture of the rear of the car shows the trim with the "Belvedere" script on the upper right end of the chrome trim.
