I have it on good authority Wink that she sold her car a few years later and this is what it looked like in 1966.

My very first car, a 1965 Opel Kadette and my cat (Mitchie). Noticed my Neighbors Beetle in the background. This had to be around 1973 or 74. I was 15 when I acquired it. I wrecked it in 1976 (total). Not my fault. I was T boned by a student driving a teachers car in auto shop in the high school parking lot. They had no insurance and I just lost my car. I only had Liability. That was my lesson in insurance.

^^^^^^^^^
Maybe some European might think putting an air horn on the roof of a Bus painted in red, white, and blue makes it a "Redneck Roadster" but that would draw some snickers here in the US. A redneck would drive a Chevy van.

I was staring at that dragster with its six exhaust pipes for about 30 seconds before I realized there was another 'Merican bus next to it. I lightened the photo and I couldn't detect a spoiler in front. I wonder how stable it was at speed with all those round surfaces.
