The Dark Wob

Looks ideal for JohnF, wherever he's hiding.

Holy cow shit!

This is burning a hole in my head now. Ludlow Green, tan leather, 3.6 V-8. Perfect.

And the interior is almost perfect

Apart from that dash vent thing....! Would venture to suggest it might need more than a paintbrush underneath too. But it is a lovely thing, alright.

Whats going on with that Pilot's exhausts? The owner clearly has odd ideas and I'd expect it to be riddled with more horrors to trip up the unwary or even pedestrians walking behind it.

I like it but then again I kinda don't. The paintwork is too shiny for my comfort, looks like one of those cars that someone very silly has owned and fiddled and farted with trivia rather than getting the important jobs done.
I have mistakenly bought a couple of cars of that sort over the years and regretted it...

That’s lovely and not a bad price.
But it’s a good job the seller didn’t visit Canada in 1963 , because they didn’t and most of Canada never did drive on the left. I think pre WW2 Newfoundland might have done , but I’m guessing there weren’t many cars there anyway.

Talking twaddle is part of the training for selling Classic Cars......Yes, Newfoundland did drive on the left and did so for the duration of the War and until 1947. Newfies could well have done this just to be awkward, though. Plate on the Galaxie is a 1980s Birmingham re-issue.
