I am sure the front fenders have a custom cruiser emblem where the marker light would be.

Nope, no big blocks in 67. I would guess a 351 V-6

Hahaha. I was noticing those beehives. I guess that is the salon up on top, they go in and don't emerge until 2:00pm with a perfect Beehive!

The inside must be completely filled with stairs to get up top. Either that, or a fireman's pole, or a trampoline

Yeah , that upper part doesn't fold . It must have been fun avoiding wires, trees and other low clearance situations .

The top did retract. Here's a picture of another of their designs on a GMC.

At first glance thought I was looking at the Beverly Hillbillies.

#1 - Just imagine a nice cross wind!
#2 - Are those chains really going to stop you from going overboard after a few too many?
#3 - What diameter sway bars are in that thing to prevent it from tipping over at anything over 15 mph? 4"?

Understandably, different times. But damn, what a stupid concept.
