I did get a really cool Cabinet.
If anyone cares.
The R/T hood is a crappy Fiber_Glass Hood made in FL late 80s. That is a top and bottom so heavy but scoops were total crap so rebuilt that and put real scoops from my wrecked hood. Also, grafted in the cowl vents.
And the T/A hood is one that the Hot Air Balloon Guy made

Bob Maher is also selling reprints of the original with no mention of the young california models name.
I see him locally selling cutting boards.

I've got the Claudia and Natalie versions from the early 80s. Both have white shirts with jean shorts. Don't have them up though. I'd like to get them laminated first.

I got most of the Direct Connection girls when they come out, but the only Dodge Girl I display is Pamela Austin from this life size clear vinyl showroom window ad I got at an old dealership and put behind glass.
Pretty risque ad from 1969 promoting new 70 model line... but she is hot !

Did you get it at the Nats that year, in Ohio?
Because I remember her and Big Daddy being there the same year.

Was looking at my suggested youtube videos and there was a Laugh In video from 1968 that had Pamela Austin, The Dodge Rebellion Girl, in it starting at 2:48.



She's also in it a bit later too.
