No, by all means, the lowlight is actually quite a looker.
Slight lowering job, but retaining that vintage look. :hangloose:

Or not - since pedestrians are usually faster than Fleetlines - even when they are walking slow :lol:

Stew, your twotone white/yellow bay pic is growing on me...the wheels complete the look though, so dont be wuss. All or nothing! Right, after hijacking my own thread :) -

Got a mms from my seatcover today, she bought me a little something (Rolls her eyes at my ACVW passion but is actually watching closely - clever these seatcovers :-) )

AND, turns out this might very well be the look I go for! Purists - run and hide, slamcionados, scatter to the hills -

:hangloose:

With BIGGER wheels though :-)
