Hey Robert,

Maybe I missed it on your thread, but it looks like you opted to lose the side trim. She looks really, really good. I ALMOST copied your first picture for my computer "desktop". Those mirrors look perfect from that angle. I like the first parking lot picture too.

Would I love to have that car...?

James.. I did opt to leave the side trim off at the moment, partly because I didn't want to be married to it by having holes not welded prior to paint, but I can install it at a later date if I should choose to.. The Rendition was hit about 95 percent I think, and the only real differences is the Side Trim and Rear License Plate position.

No pics yet of 3ft snowdrifts as winter seems to have abstained in southern sweden....Minus temperatures forcasted for next week with a chance of snow but who knows?

Found and old pic from the seventies from the local town square..seems the guy had a problem !!!

Same place 35 or so years later...pic taken today. Had a chat with the guy looking at my car, said he used to have a '64 Amazon. Actually had just come from filling up at the station, another guy was talking to me there about his Amazon too, seems you can't stop anywhere without bumping into folk who talk about them with a broad smile and happy memories to share.

Parked up opposite the train station..

Where's the pics then ? Amazons out where they are s'posed to be..there's more pics and threads on them in garages getting stripped than out in the wild..they that rare a sight ? lol...

Last couple of days we've had our second snow this winter, bit heavier than the last one..

If you want snow, come over here; went snowshoeing the other day and could push my ski poles all the way down....

No pics of my estate on the road these days, too much salt!

Today I was off out picking up my winter tyres I ordered..not your usual tyre depot lol...it was somwhere in them there woods !

It seems Amma122s and I have similar taste in settings for photos, even if they are half a world away. These photos are in Wyoming, in the Rocky mountains in central USA:

Fantastic pic there..love it

Tell you what, these Amazons are tanks, seen quite a few newer upmarket cars including BMW's and Mercs struggle or on the side of the roads here..the Amazons proving reliable and ploughs on through..impressed with the heating too !! enough to keep the hot x buns toasty warm even with -10 outside.

My wife took this one, a little similar.

Nice to see some sun, not seen it here in a few weeks now...just grey clouds and now more snow ...

The major roads get cleared and a sprinkling of salt I guess but not much, all the country roads get is a plough and gravel...

Well chuffed with the winter studs
