1. I think smoking is bad for you, young man. 
2. I think your girlfriend has got some serious photo skeels (save for the telephone pole shadow shot).
3. And I love the ride!

Thank you!!!

I had front and rear bumper guards. I removed the rear because I like the clean look on the rear bumper. but I still have them in my garage incase I change my mind. The car has A/C, heater, Tilt steering, Vinyl, star headliner, AM radio, auto trans (powerglide) 327 "turbo jet". I hope I didnt forget anything.

'65 Crocus Yellow SS, 327/'Glide, all original. I really don't get it out often enough though, so you probably haven't seen it around. I know I've never taken it up to SB.

I was curious as to how long before the 'other' white '65 2dr HT in SB would show up on this forum!

Yup; I've owned it for over 20 years. It actually looks white at first glance because it's the original paint, faded from the SoCal sun. The car's quite presentable as is, but to be perfect really needs a big-buck paint job and have a few dings taken out.
Old-Town Camarillo now has a Friday nite (3rd Friday each month) cruise during the summers and there was quite a turnout this year including some folks from your territory. Hope to see you next year. Sadly, you guys didn't have the "Wheels 'n Waves" show in downtown SB this year due to the fires; I was hoping to make it.

I've had 20's on mine for a couple years already. I think our cars are so big and long the 20's look more proportioned with them. Unfortunately i miss the nice ride that the stock tires gave me so i might switch to 18's for a little more side wall.

Everyone I know that has put on "BIG" wheels usually ends up taking them off for that same reason. It doesn't matter what type of car, suv or truck either.
