Author Topic: What car do you drive? Barry Floyd Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1079 From: Lebanon, Tennessee, USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 05-20-2003 12:36 PM                        Seeing Paul's dream cars pictured above, I've alway wondered what chasis the "Weiner-mobile" was built on. Looks like it could be a bus chasis. Anybody know?  |  IP: Logged Matt Hale Expert Film Handler Posts: 123 From: Vancouver, Canada Registered: Dec 2002 posted 05-20-2003 02:16 PM                        If you ask me (and nobody did but that's not the point...) the ultimate pinnacle of automotive coolness is a 1983 Chevrolet Celebrity in a 2-tone brown paint scheme. Bench seats forever! Yeah! At least until the end of the year when, hopefully, the ultimate pinnacle of automotive coolness will be a brand-new silver Mini Cooper with a warranty!
