Thanks for posting the great pictures.
Do you happen to have any more pictures (other side and back) of the Cat's Meow coupe?
Does anyone know who owns the Cat's Meow coupe?

The coupe in the 4th pic down is the same color as mine. Would love to know what that color is called. Some shade of yellow I guess. I bought mine that color. T.I.A RAy

Looks like manila brown. It's the color used on station wagons.

Great photos... needed tires for my slant window maroon town sedan and waffling on white vs blackwalls. The first photo made me decide on the firestone blackwalls and will paint my red wheels black.
A nice classy original look.

Larry,
Here's one more just in case you haven't completely made up your mind yet....ha, ha. But I agree with you. This car is very elegant and has a lot presence.

CT AV8, thanks for the photo.. .I agree.... I ordered tires from Macs the other day as they had 15% off on everything including tires and there's no discounting on tires generally.

When I get mine whipped into shape next month for the National I'll post some photos.
many thanks!
Larry

Great pictures, thanks for sharing! I especially love the sedan, don't see many pics of standard slant window sedans. Been debating on painting mine blue or maroon. Was leaning towards blue, but that maroon sure looks good!
