........................ is that an Abarth double-bubble in the background?



    Yes!  Fiat-Abarth-Zagoto

    I sold my grandfather's a couple of years ago to a restorer in Europe;  750 C.C. engine, enlarged from the 500C.C. Fiat and aluminum body set on the Fiat steel pan/frame, and you don't realize how small the car is until your standing next to it, hence the "Double-Bubble" roof arrangement.      ;D

Anyone recognize this car? Car was drag raced in Kansas, New Mexico, Arizona and Texas. Last pic is the day I brought it home and washed the layers of dirt off the car from sitting 40 plus years. Trunk is full of old pics of the car back in the day.

LOVE THE Keystone Classics!

     
     They're what I had on my '72 MACH 1 in the '70's (still do), and the front-runner (no, not skinnies!) for what I'm choosing to put on my "60 T-Bird, 15" x 7"s, with white letter Polyglass G60s all round.

     "Stones' Classics", how to sport with some class!      8)

     B.T.W. wasn't it Goodyear who used the '70 BOSS 302 with Keystone Classics in their "WIDE BOOTS" ad series?   I forget the manufacturer for whom the ad was for, but I remember the BOSS 302, Keystone Classics, and of course the legs wearing the boots!        :P
