It's lowered, but not electrified, thankfully.

Peugeot 604? lol (I have no idea. And the car behind Hendrix is too blurry for my eyes to tell. Mid 50s though, judging by the shape of the hood.)

Yes. Your prize is one cotton candy or one ice cream cone. Please let MVS Shipping and Receiving™ know which you'd like sent out.

I'm partial to 70s cars like Ferrari 308, early 70s American muscle cars. Less Grand Style, more Aggression.
Can I just have chocolate ice cream without the cone?

The 60s and 70s had some nice looking cars, too, as did the 80s, but the shape of the cars from the 50s is just beautiful. (Except the way the windshield edge is with the door open. I hate hitting my knee on that. It hurts.)

You got it. The MVS SH Dept. already sent a ice cream, so I'll have them send another tomorrow.

But what's the car behind him? (I don't know.)

And yes, the apartment building it's parked at is a period-correct 1960s building. Perfect pairing, though the car I'm not saying is necessarily 1960s. The car is lowered a great deal. I'd feel like $10M bucks if I was cruising in this.

Why horribly modified? It's a 1958 Impala.

That's just wrong. Why add an additional blindspot on each side, as well as an extra window? Was that a prototype?
