Very neat cars, both of them.

Interestingly enough, I see one thing I would consider a major flaw in both cars. Funny thing is, both cars seem to have the same problem. This is not meant to criticize his cars, they both look amazing. I am not talking about colour choice or anything like that. Considering how clean both cars are, I am just a bit surprised.

I will wait to see if anyone else can pick it out.

heres my engine,from him,  when I got it   ....100_1206.jpg


I was thinking rubber fuel line, but thats fixable,  not a major flaw, unless car catches fire

They both have a C post?

Well after looking at all those pics the only flaw I can see is......

THEY'RE NOT SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I really like the '62, the interior is very nice and that 6 looks good under the hood.

Look at the passenger door body lines where they meet the front fender on both cars.

Now, with that said, anything I own is probably worse before you guys climb all over me. It's just that both those cars are SO clean looking that I find it odd they both have a poor fit there.

You got a great eye Carl. The second one is not as bad as the first.

You betcha. I can tell this guy is very much into making his cars stand out. Very surprising that he has not corrected that.

Carl.....I thought you would be refering to 'flaw' as the color of the 67.  I am a little color blind, but the car does not look like Medium Green (HH) with a Fawn interior (771).  Very nice looking car for the money.

Geez Carl, That fit is most likely better than the way they left the factory. Remember that these cars are were what we refer to nowadays as econo-boxes. GM quality control was probably 1/2" tolerance right into the 80's.

Oh, I agree totally. He has done such an outstanding job on both those cars. It surprises me to see that glaring mismatch of lines. Don't get me wrong, I've never had (well, maybe with a couple of exceptions) a car as nice as his is. It isn't even that obvious until he really zoomed in for the right side door pic on those cars.

And yes, at the factory that was likely well within spec in those years!
