I just knew something was missing on my '57 75 series, and then it came to me!  What do you think, guys? Looks fast, huh?

Kelly, I just hope that the flames will come off with "soap and water".  Jim

Jim,
  Just kidding.  Magnetic flames.  When we were doing the restoration and talking about colors, we decided to stay with the factory alpine white.  I kidded my wife and said a flame package would really sex the car up, so she bought these out of a catalog.

 ;D  My wife saw a PT Cruiser with those same flames --- she just had to have them on her PT.  JC Whitney has them and this is the second PT of hers those same flames have been on (about 5 years).  Peel them off to wash the car (or not) and stick them back on.
My wife is in her early 70's.  Some people just never grow up!  Which in her case is fine with me.   ;D

I was reminded of of the movie Black Cadillac. Have you seen it?  It features a 57 Cadillac limo driven by a nut chasing a group of teenagers at night in the winter time. The chase scenes will have you scratching your head as to how a 57 Cadillac, any model let alone a 75 series, could ever do those speeds on snow covered back roads!

Maybe do a search on youtube and preview some of those chase scenes.
