Wish I had the camera this morning. Saw a '60 Eldo convertible at a local shop. The starter was literally hanging out of the bottom of the car. Looked like it was driveable but was in need of a total resto, everything was done shoddily and incorrectly. The guy saw fit to add extra scripts, emblems, and body side molding, the whole interior was wrong, paint was awful. Just really trashy.

What really got my attention was the metric speedometer. 0 to 200 in increments of 20. That was interesting, as was a shortwave radio under the dash that really seemd to fit too well not to be factory.

Comments?

I should clarify that the speedo was factory, as the radio appeared to be as well.
