    And no, I dont mean the 1950 Cadillac Series 61 coupe (custom alloy body) that almost (almost) won LeMans that year.
    Giant old Cadillac, 'Le Monstre,' returns to LeMans
    Rather, itz what becomes of a perfectly good '65 Riviera 37 in the hands of Docteur Frankenstein in France.
    Sadly, itz not the first time a great CC got so butchered - "Bambi" ('65 CC CDR SF 38) having shared (and shed) such a demise:
    Chris Craft Commander Forum: Warren Pateman's total restoration of BAMBI (photos)
    Chris Craft Commander Forum: 114 Photos of the BAMBI project (Warren Pateman)
    SO,..., we Roamer fans can only hope that another Warren Pateman happens along and rescues "Coral Yne" before its 2 late.
    Cheers!

    PS - Who else thinks the pine-on-mahogany interior is "to die for"? :eek:

    Eric,

    Jimmy Buffet's got a great song in which he refers to "Eurotrash" of which this is a perfect example...

    Hope you got through the storms OK..
