    Vintage Car Thread - Discussion and Parts Requests

    Big man, don't forget to slide over to chevytalk at some stage. There is a pretty helpful specialist forum for cars of this age there. http://www.chevytalk.org/fusionbb/showforum.php?fid/36/keyword/1961-1964_Fullsize_Chevys/ They could give you a heads up on things to look for.

    Revolving Restaurants

    Antares wasn't bad, but agree it was overpriced. I had an inner ear problem at the time and was very aware of the motion - didn't help my appreciation one bit. They should put a restaraunt in the Japanese Gardens in FortWorth. Beautiful....

    Mr Wu's a window cleaner now.

    I watched the latest release of Le Carre's 'Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy' last night. George Formby's 1940 song 'Mr Wu's a window cleaner now' features (briefly) in a prominent part of the film. www.youtube.com/watch?v=3w3X95uWv8A I enjoyed the film, and was pleased to hear George Formby...

    Square toe shoes

    My local Florsheim dealer has some discontinued Royal Imperials on deep discount at the moment. I'm tempted, but the toes are square(ish) - not my favourite style. I can't recall seeing many square toe styles in old shoe catalogs (perhaps I need to read more) or in the 'show us your shoes'...

    Let's See Your Watches! The Vintage Watch Thread.

    Beautiful item, love the condition of the dial. Mid century Omega Constellations and Seamasters are very popular with lots on eBay these days commanding strong prices. Hard to find an original unmolested unit. Lots of frankenwatches out there.
