@jkuvakas I've seen this in person and it's not a pretty sight.

I understand. Great works of art always become something of a cliche. People get so accustomed to studying them and gazing upon their images that they begin to take them for granted. The Mona Lisa, Pieta, Sistine Chapel, et al, wind up first on wall hanging, then on magazine covers, then on t-shirts and jackets, then on napkins, and finally showing up as frame-fillers for Dollar Tree offerings.

JK may be pushing the limits here, but a few more green models in celebration of this Fine Irish Day.
Bentley, Aston Martin, Lotus, Cobra and several Jaguars.

Well stated and quite true JK, but of course not applicable to the unfortunate Chevy wagon.

@jkuvakas The bad thing about seeing this model is once you see it you can't unsee it!

Lol, yes, Bob ! We both have and it takes a certain resilience and strength of character.

The local gas station must be giving a gas discount today for green cars. The models are a WMCE 1958 Plymouth Sport Suburban wagon, Conquest 1959 Mercury Colony Park Lane wagon, and a 1958 DeSoto Firedome convertible.
