I understood. I was just reminiscing as well and sharing what my intentions have been for some time now.
Boy,
I'm sorry. I'm not following your question.
Gary,
Whew! Thanks for your input. I truly appreciate it.

The two cars are very similar, aren't they? So, my questions was, did you use elements from one drawing in the other?

So, the Custom, the convertible, posted here is drawn at a completely different angle/view, so none of the elements could simply be copied from one drawing to the other. To try to do that would involve so much editing that you would be better off drawing it from scratch.
As far as the actual appearance of the two, the Crestliner was the same car, but with added features that weren't available on the Custom.
Hope that answers your question.

If my memory serves me correctly Ron, those are Oldsmobile fiesta hubcaps on your brothers car. Very popular back then.

Very observent Gray.
I used them because neither my brother (78) nor myself could remember exactly what they looked like. We knew they were "spinners" but couldn' t remember their exact appearance. He remembered the red and white tuck n roll interior also, but again, not the exact detail.
Sadly, no family pics show the car.
