This is my favorite picture of The ITALIEN.  I took it from my gargae roof/






Note the pillow from the 1964 New York Worlds Fair in the back window



 


This interior is SHARP!
Notice the trim between the headliner and windows in the photo at the right.
That is the fiberglass trim that is chrome plated.





The cooker


After taking some pictures at home the next stop was the local
gas station for it's first fill in a long time.



Then off to a local Wednesday night car gathering



The hood off the white 62 is what I used for fabricating
the missing fiberglass nose trim.  Note that the front 8inches is missing
from the hood.




Acouple of my other cars with the Italien and a friends 63 Sport Roadster


IN the midle is my brothers 57 E code, it will be at Barrett-Jackson with the Italien. 
It is lot #1052





This is a photographer from Collectible Automobile Magazine
