When the 67 Camaros were first shown to the public, one of the cars on display had some sort of checker board design on the vinyl top. Not as wild as this GB car.

Just giving the customer what they wanted... Look at some of his other work... What's interesting is he didn't alter the body like he so typically did. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]

Didnt Ford actually have a production car they called the "Mod Maverick"? or was it "Mod Pinto"? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif[/img] Had flowers on the vinyl top.

That was the "Mean Mavrick". It was a 2 door car with a V8 and a 4 speed if I recall correctly.
