Re: 51 Vicky
Was the '51 the last year of the split front windshield?
My wife says I only have 2 faults. I don't listen...and something else
Re: 51 Vicky
A friend and member of my car club has been restoring a 51 Vicky for a few years now. I really like the style and lines on that car. He got the car from a guy in an old time rock and roll band called South Side Johnny and the Asbury Jukes. I really like the mild custom work you did on your car.

Yep, 52 were one piece windshields. The 51 Vicky was the first year for the 2 door hard top. Put about 300 miles on it this weekend. Runs and drives like a charm.

Finished cleaning Vicky's flathead today, went for a short cruise to our local ice cream parlor.
