I met the shop owner Mr. Chan, who is 83 years old and still works on cars. He's a really cool guy, knows a lot about cars, and owns a lot of interesting cars. Here's some of them:

Looks like the front end of an Opel GT to me.

That's an interesting place to lift the Series up on. I would have done it on the frame.

I couple years ago one of these rolled down my block, it said Bradley on the tailgate. I'm still not 100% sure what it is. It sounded like it had a V8

Series III, ('71-'73) US spec lights (so it's been here the whole time), with Fairey locking hubs.

This is an example of the kind of dealer logo you leave *on* a car. At this point, it's history. Also: my favorite year of the Toronado.

Well, seeing that there are any number of SBC kits available for the Bug, it's very possible someone engaged in combinatory cleverness.

why they all dusty and not movey except this rather mundane new piece? :(
