Of all the colors in God's spectrum, what would make someone choose "vomit"?

Eric yes... completely unlike those strange, strange folks out there in dorothys hometown who put turbochargers on Packards.
 that really is a hideous excuse for a car, and im definately not defending it. hes giving us a bad name! That color looks like it belongs in 'p-town'

i hear ya, Eric. it really is sad proof of what a lot of money and very little brains will buy. even if i could explain away the horrid body work, digusting pant, sacriligious choice of powertrain ect ect ( and belive me i cant), its still a front wheel drive that he admits is all show and no go.
For the record, im not at all against the idea of a turbocharged Packard.

I remember an article in a magazine 10 or 15 years ago about a guy who created a clipper convert. he used a 2 door sedan as the basis. It was ultimately painted a peach color and was good looking. At the same time wasnt there aos a custom one off done for Erol Flynn?
