There was, and that's why there's now no lid on the car: the roads were too bumpy and Coke got all shook up and, well, blew her top too. Nothing's perfect... She's gone topless ever since. It's the European infleunce, you see: we rather look at those once-hidden treasures than absorb, or contribute to, endless twitterings from cynical, deranged politicians and their besotted fans. It's all showbiz now.

No, not this time: your first bet was on the money: the colour of that Chevrolet is foul!

Maybe you should have PhotoShopped a more Cuban color.

In the early '60s, my dad had a '47 Chevy coupe as his "work car". Most of what I know about cars was learned while working on it.

BW definitely. At first I wasn't sure about the vignette, but it does highlight the car nicely. Gives a very nice vintage look.
Well done!
