Default Tommy Nolen's Early Muscle Cars

As discussed in another thread, here are photos of my 61 Early Muscle Car collection - 2 Impala SS's, a Ford Starliner and a Pontiac Ventura. I have attached a photo of each car and its motor.

Mike,
The car is a Sr. Grand National and was a AACA National Award winner in 2000.
The blue car goes to it's first AACA meet next weekend.

To give you an idea of the scope of work Tommy does on his own cars, here's a pic of the blue SS in "mid" restoration. That's his shop, not a restoration shop.



This photo was taken in Jan. '07.

Beautiful cars, Tommy. Thanks for posting the pics. I had two Fawn Beige '61s years ago and really enjoyed those cars. To have two bonified '61 SS cars... wow that is just awesome. Congratulations.
