Still desperately trying to find nice gifts for the girl for Christmas. Only found one thing so far. She’s that awful combo of great gift giver/impossible to shop for

She’d probably love an Alpine White Thunderbird! It’s so very pretty!

And time is running out.

I can’t think of a more thoughtful gift. Maybe I should get her a new drill press and a really nice nail gun

I have thought about snapping up that Epi, since it’s so cheap though

There's going to be a race to the finish. Just looked at it.

Now THAT sounds like a solid plan!

 

[dukeorock]

Looks like it’s gonna go pretty cheap

Beret, vintage metal frame Wayfarers, APC dress, Spring Court shoes...

I took a look and when the website opened, there were 6 seconds left in the auction. It went for $244.27. Not $200, but still dirt cheap for what it is.

Who am I getting this gift for again?

 

[Larry V]

$267 shipped. Still a solid bargain at that price. Someone got a good deal!

Get her a Vintage Pro. Then you can borrow it.

No. There can only be one like that.

Alright, getting an opinion poll! I want to refinish my Greco in the new year. I'm leaning towards a metallic moss green, but what do y'all thing? Here are the options:

Gold Poly Mist/Shoreline Gold Cardinal Red/Dakota Red

Pelham Blue/Ice Blue Metallic (a much lighter shade than more modern Gibson Pelham Blues)

Pale Inverness Green/Aged IBM. The thing of it is I've seen a lot of variations of Inverness, from pale to much more of a forrest green. These are the shades I'd aim for:

But it's hard to track down a mix for that color, so I might have to go with a Ice Blue Metallic and tinted top coat, since this is the color I think would look best:

Sounds like my wife. She doesn't have awful habits, has no collections of anything in particular, works hard at everything she does, doesn't want anything, doesn't have any kind of stereotypical shopping habits. Unlike me. They say opposites attract. Must be. Thank goodness!

Oldsmobile green looks great. I'm still thinking that the '91 may end up this color:
