Mine is surf green, someone painted the bottom a dark aqua colour, its not near as nice a colour as it looks, IMHO. The wheels were temporarily off my Roman Red 59. I have a stock set of black 14's on it now, still not driving the car.

My Mom, Sister & Brother-in-Law, two Nephews and their families are in Bowling Green. Ever go to Rians "Fatted Calf" butcher shop to get your hamburger/steaks or other meat?? That is one nephew. (Excellent meat by the way) The other is an instructor at WKU. If you get a chance, stop by the fatted Calf and tell Rian "Uncle Lonnie" sent you. It'll blow his socks off!! Take your '62, he will love it!

It's on 31W about 1/4 mile south of what I believe is Scottsville Rd. I think 31W runs North & South in that area. It's a small shop so if you blink you might miss it. He does one heck of a business though.
