This is my dream car!!! A 32 Ford 3-window coupe with a flathead, blower, big and littles and a SWEEEET orange paint job!

And this is how my 3-window coupe will look after a couple years of driving it!

I had these sparkly pink handle bar grips on my bike when I was 4! But it wasn't called the "Pink Taco."

I think these are gear shifters.

Speaking of gear shifters... meet what I call "the Hipster Shifter!"

I love it when the car's interior matches it's exterior. Btw, this car used to be owned by baseball legend, Reggie Jackson.
