Re: [FWDLK] A truly odd 1961 Plodge

I don't know, I think the styling on this car works pretty well - the front
and back both match up fairly well, a chrome fin that arcs towards the
center of the car - inset for the headlights up front, and the taillights in
back.  To me it's the front of those Dodges that ...  it's not ugly exactly,
they just remind me of a big sad-eyed basset hound or something, if it were
shown in a cartoon I'd expect to see tears under the headlights...

The Plymouth rear lacks the chrome to make it match where the inset is...
and man.. did they just not paint the inside of the taillights or what?
I've seen ... a good dozen or more in junkyards and the only taillight
housing that was even close to intact, I have here - and at that I pulled it
a good 15 years ago.  The only other exception might be one I spotted that
had the taillights chromed on it.
