Maybe if you would have stood in from of him and blocked the car with your person, you could have found out who the driver was. Please keep that in mind next time. Seriously, does anyone know what brand of tires those are? They have a really aggressive tread pattern.

I bet that this is the same Hornet Convert that has been listed a couple times on e-bay here in So Cal. There were lots of comments here on the forum. I think the seller was a doctor or something?

The Driver looks to me like Bill Albright's evil twin OSCAR

Bingo....!

Yes, it looks to be one and the same.

It may or may not be the same car.......I just wonder what disease causes people to put an old lady looking sunvisor on such a brute of a car?

My guess would be daimondbacks Dave. They put wide whites on several brands with various tread patterns.

Probably because nobody else with a convertible can do it, Arkie.



It undoubtedly looks better with the top up.



Conny kits on Hudsons get a similar reaction --- some love 'em, and some hate 'em.

Whatever "disease" it is, I hope no one finds a cure, as I suffer from the same affliction . . .

Thanks Ryan, I though that might be the case.

Dave, they look like Goodyear WWW Radials to me.
