Challenge for ya

Here's a question for you all

Exactly what car is featured in the Sheila's wheels advert?

A couple of people at work would like to know as they are going to make an offical complaint about them, for the fact that they advertise with an american car but don't insure american cars. they have already written to Top Gear and other motoring companies

If yer referring to this pic... it's a heavily modified mid 50's Oldsmobile.

The Dual headlights don't work with the lower section/bumper.

And the removed section in the bonnet looks nasty !

Thanks guys - I have sent the link of this thread to the guys at work.
Will have to see what happens

Erm, am I being blind or are there no joins on the pink bonnet?
Does that mean the whole thing lifts up, or is it photoshopped?

[philoldsmobile]

its probably a fibreglass mockup!

you are quite right, it has no bonnet shut lines!!
