"PINK LADY"; FINISHED Pictures, (re-posted......)

:lol: :lol: :lol:

The "inspiration for this" came from watching a fellow by the name of ART SUGAI who had an "oriental cafe" in Ontario, Oregon when I was young......... The cafe was the EASTSIDE CAFE, and, his cars (pink in color) ran under the banner of "THE PINK LADY"........... Cars "changed" over the years, but, the name ALWAYS remained. His "last car" was a Grant King Sprint car that STILL runs to this day (it was a 1968 car), and, I'm told, STILL gets to "see a checkered flag" now and then..............

Anyhow, this will be "patterned after" one of his "earlier coupes", with some SERIOUS "poetic licence"....................

Art had SO MANY DIFFERENT "VERSIONS" over the years, and his cars were "noted" for being VERY QUICK !!!!!!!!!!!!!

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Got the "floor" in, and the main loop for the roll-bar put in last night........... something, anyhow..............(pictures later......)

MO.......SORRY !!!!!!!! Just now noticed the question: As for tires on "this one", it'll have some of the old slicks like Art ran on his cars "back in the day"............

Again, this IS NOT meant to be an "EXACT REPLICA" of any of Art Sugai's cars, but rather, just something that is "inspired" by seeing his cars.............

Got the old "303 inch OLDS" sitting down in the hole............single AFB four-barrel carb, and have the distributor & plug wires run...........
