I'd have to drive it as it is for a while.
Cruise around playing music from the film at night.

But then I am strange !

Ha lol,
Na your not strange as I would love to but would take a lot off work just to do that plus there are too many trophy hunters out there who would pull that gold "V" off the grill and other items of trim that my fall off are just too hard to get now.
I am however gonna get her out by trailer to one or two shows this year as she is cos I'd think that would be kinda cool?

Lol will have to ask John as I do want to do a photo shoot with the car in a grave yard.
I mentioned it to Sonia Hammond she seemed well up for that.
All good fun.

Cheers, I have been into Christine since the film came out really back in the '80s and love the fact as they are not as big as a Caddy or such but the same almost as a Charger that it could be said they were among the first cars to start the muscle car era as they had high horsepower "Golden Commando" engines as an option with duel carbs.
Love em!

Whats the route your going with this one then?

Rock stock, hot rodded or film rep?

Be great to see something different (50's car) being built on here!

These are in no doubt my favourite 50's Yank cars, she is beautiful as she is. Im surprised Mr R.Runner hasn't surfaced, would look great next to his Christine, a before and after like the film.
