Remember the Gullwings of the 1950s?

They are coming back in 2011.

The whole story is here...

I like gull wings. Unfortunately in the Delorean the windows would not roll down. Made it difficult at the 'ol drive thru.

...pretty neat Glen, however the pic was extremely large causing viewers to havvta scroll back and forth to see the pic...not to mention what is does to those on dial-up...I used a web based program http://tinypic.com to resize the pic to a 640x480 format and edited your post so as to fit the window better...this is a great little site for pic resizing for pics that are "hot linked" check it out, it will do several things for you....

Aw, that is nice and I see they have lowered the door sill which is good.

I'd bet that I can't afford (or at least choose not to afford) either one of the used "old" ones or one of the shiny new ones. I bet the new one is a far cry from old one and is quite a machine.

Happy with and AMERICAN Ford van.

Cheers,

Gus

And you can use this to go back or forward into time and get either one:

*drool....*

I've been seeing bits about this for awhile. Cool to see a date is finally set. And yes, it does look a little easier to get in and out of this time

Once again I am reminded of things I can't afford :lol:

Hmmmm, it wasn't big on my screen. I bet the resolution was not 72 dpi. That could make it huge on some computers, and not on others. :thinking:

Yeah, the 300SL Gullwings were pretty hard to get in and out of.

Glen, properties said 1024x780 which pushed it off the sides and gave me/us(admins) an opportunity to try something we have been discussing in private(amongst admins) about dealing with oversized pics hot linked to off site storage...give www.tinypic.com a try, we are going to recommend it in the future for folks that need to do resizing...........

Althought it was interesting to watch a good looking gal in a mini skirt get in and out of one. You know, sit on sill, swing legs around and in and then slide into seat. AND at the same time, keeping the skirt down. Can you just picture it.
