Hips
All car designers have always had their own ideas about body-work, and I have always thought that about car fenders specifically. From the time that I was a kid I always thought that it was very sexual in nature. I mean, how can you look at a Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa and not think of someone like Sophia Loren? Seriously.
So, over the next few days we are going to have a run of gorgeous hips from the car show last week-end at the O'more School of Design in Franklin that Sam and I attended. It's a great venue for a car show, what a beautiful campus.
If you'd like to try a guess in the comments as to what each image of the car with hips is, that might be fun. But I can't promise any real prizes here, 'cause the Skate Truck isn't really very well sponsored. Prizes could maybe be a cold beverage for a correct guess when I see you, or perhaps a light snack, or a used fishing lure, or maybe a hale and hearty hand-shake of congratulatory nature, just depending on who the guess-ee might be.....
So, we'll start here with a really easy one, everyone should get this one. If we were really talking sexual, these hips would be a Mae West sort of BBW.
Seriously.....

I do beleive I spy the spectacular rear corner of Carrol Shelby's (AC) Cobra, or at least a replica of that rare rocket from the early to mid 60s?
Ding ding ding! We have a winnah' folks.
The octane of this snake was the 427. Nasty! It was hard to determine if it was a replica or not. Many pieces were the correct vintage aluminum bits but the front clip was f-glass. The control pedals were correct. The window screen was right. It had the correct badges with vintage info pop-riveted in the correct places, but Sam and I were never able to say for sure, real or replica.
Having said that, it was seriously beautiful and sounded gorgeous. Good job Jesco.....
Even if it were just a small part orginal, it would be a pretty rare bird. I love them things and have never seen anything but replicas and they were cool as hell
Oh if I could have One car. Your right Peewee what a set of hips.
