AND NOW.... for something completely different

[Wollfen]

Along with the fins I thought the square steering wheel with the clear with metal flake sections was really cool.

Wow, first of the 22in wheels that are so popular nowadays huh?

I think they are more likely about 32-36s.

Can anyone identify what the metal thingy is in the picture besides the '60 Plymouth?..........

 

[70NPORT]

I'm not sure that qualifies as an Exner fin....

I remember riding in the rear facing seat (9 passenger wagon) in my Dad's '60 Plymouth.

It looked like this except it was red and white, not titty pink.

although the colors are gaudy, even that looks better than that ugly dodge. Still, fins on a wagon is like drinking and driving. Exner ran afoul of the law on that one, which is one of the reasons he was canned. The "FOWARD look",...more like the The "FUBAR'd" look.

Come on guys.....someone here has to go against the grain when it comes to fuba, sorry forward look cars. It would be no fun if everyone agreed with each other....and that might as well be me b/c I truly hate these cars with a passion.

The reverse fin is a odd looking thing the wagon helps to make it work better.

I can't stop staring at those bumperettes now......

Really? A passion? You passionately hate those? Thats outrageous

Yes, I do. I'm a minimalist. They are anything but.

Thats not saying much

Gary, why don't you have one of these already, then?

As I said, I'm a minimalist.

I know ...........................:eusa_whistle:

 

[70NPORT]

Gary, why don't you have one of these already, then?

Because I don't like it. Minimalism does not have to mean ugly.

 

[polara71]

but it isnt a whole lot

 

[detmatt]

To each their own...

 

[commando1]

You don't see the beauty of the minimalism in the Bug. I feel for you....
