it will age in my wine rack a little longer -
Dutch was an artist. As with many artists, they in corporate "signatures" in their designs, e.g. Salvador Dali had a small bug in all of his paintings. Ergo, Dutch put an image of a heart in his, i.e., "scalloped" windshield on Kaisers and rear window on the Henry j. For the Darrin, it was the turn signals and the grille. Get it?

don't forget the WOODWARD DREAM CRUISE -
some Darrin parts can be very expensive, especially if you buy them from some guy on eBay, namesake "jake", ironically same root name as your email address..what a strange coincidence!!!
-
"cost of parts"..what do you expect to replace as you drive it down the road?
-
I do not understand your "not cheap to own"..in the past 13 years and 15, 000 miles, a few oil changes do not cost that much!!...I drive mine all the time, including on THE TAIL OF THE DRAGON

grille=Darrin's artistic image of a heart--common in his designs
-
that "kiss-pucker" grille is merely one of Darrin's design signatures as any artist frequently puts in their work.. Dutch incorporates an "image" of a heart in his designs, e.g., windshield of full size Kaisers. rear window of the Henry J, grille and turn signal lights on the Kaiser Darrin. I'll excuse your naivety.

Opinions wanted: old-car friendly retirement communities?

I have been to M1 several times--more supercars than Kaiser Darrins, but everything with wheels is there -
Opinions wanted: old-car friendly retirement communities?
kfcarguy replied to Reatta Man's topic in General Discussion
I totally agree with the rural life. 30 years ago, I moved on 8 acres, 15 minutes out of town, dirt road, now paved. Definitely not for everyone. Well water, septic field, gotta get 8N tractor, chainsaws, learn fence work. But on the plus side, every tree is an urinal and able to build my dream garage and fill it with "stuff". On the other hand, live in a tent and get the ultimate garage...M1 Concourse. -
