Interesting looking old Morris Minor. I notice the wheels are from something else. I don't know the spacing on the bolt pattern, but have seen where many different manufacturers will use a common wheel bolt patterns thus making wheel upgrade easier.

Looks like MG Sprite bits. Though B not out of question. Looks more 13” it seems. Looks nice on there for cheap.

I know they are north of $100k, but wanted to see how much and if it a 'market adjustment' sticker.

Dash looks like they slapped a couple laptop screens on the dash and the controls were  GM parts bin.  Back half looks like a reimaged Avalanche.  For the hype, I expected more.....

Saw a '55 Chevy series 150 four door sedan yesterday. What makes this particular car rather unique was not the car I self but rather the setting it is in. It's setting inside the fence area of an assisted living facility. In particular it is used as a "memory trigger" for those there for memory assistance therapy. Pretty cool concept overall. There are many other objects there for same purpose but I thought the car was rather unique.

Pulling out of the market parking lot yesterday and noticed a '63 Impala with the top down sitting under the only shade tree in the parking lot. Very clean looking at a glance.

This morning I was going to my dentist and in the lane beside me there was a car transporter  loaded with some new cars and the following 3 classics from the 50's and 60's: Jaguar XK140 FHC, Series 1 E-Type and  Porsche 356 Speedster . I never expected to see such cars here - unfortunately no photos (I was on my way to a tooth extraction), but this sight really made my day!

That Kustom dates back to the '50's and '60's if it's the original. This one first appeared in the old R & C little pages and the main feature was the channeled body not to mention the fins. Either this is a reproduction, or someone has had the original freshened up to look like it has just been built.
