Default Lookie what followed me home! (56K no-go)

So I took a trip to WV this weekend. I had a follower on the way home to Virginia Beach. I snapped a few pics of the follower. Here they are:





So while I was getting gas on the way home I happened to catch a decent pic of another car I found rather interesting and absolutely GORGEOUS. I could be wrong but I believe it is a Bel Aire Nomad. Here's the pic I managed to snap:



Now for those that HAEVN'T followed my thread a few weeks back or who just don't know, I managed to score an '88 Fiji blue quest and finally was able to get it home. Getting it on and off the trailer with the drivers side on flats and a good chunk of the engine bay being in the trunk wasn't exactly easy (It actuall fell OFF the ramps of the trailer when we were pushing it off but there was on stopping it once it started rolling. Thankfully the air dam was already gone so no damage there except maybe a very little bit on the intercooler). Here are the pics from before the trip down here after we managed to get it up on the trailer in WV:






BTW she is BONE stock EVERYTHING is still there except a few small pieces here and there.

Bodywise it's missing the air dam and has a small dent on the passenger's fender (Spare already waiting on me in OH). Inside is in REALLY good shape surprisingly. And the engine has seen better days. I'm going to fix that though.

And yes it is Fiji blue definately a BEAUTIFUL color (Though atlantic blue is gorgeous too).

The sad part is it looks this good and it's dirty as hell right now. Can't wait to see how she comes out after a bath.
