Two-face Toronado an evil/handsome genius/crook

 

Avatar for Justin Hyde Justin Hyde —Two-face Toronado an evil/handsome genius/crookWhen Precision Car Restoration in St. Louis wanted to highlight its work, it decided to create a rolling before and after ad by restoring exactly half of a 1967 Oldsmobile Toronado. Two-Face just found what he wants for his birthday.

The half-and-half treatment runs the entire length of the classic front-wheel-drive beast, and includes a half-finished engine compartment and trunk. Since the Olds V8 was installed longitudinally, we can only assume only half of its cylinders have been given a once-over, which must make for some fun engine revs.

 

Full size
Inside, the blending of old and new is somewhat seamless, although it could be as much work to make the old and new mate than just ripping out the old and starting fresh. Two-Face always ran hot and cold like that.

Collection Gallery: The Jim Henderson Collection - Mobile, AlabamaBy Brian Lohnes - Photos by Charles Schryver Posted 03/28/11

 

BangShift member Charles Schryver has a bad ass little six cylinder Falcon. He's also a member of the Falcon Club of America which was having their Southern Regional meeting in Pensacola, Florida this past weekend. One of the activities was a cruise to Mobile, Alabama and a tour of the massive private collection of Jim Henderson, the president of Mobile Lumber. 

 

According to Charles, Henderson's collection numbers over 100 cars (about 60 of which were at the location he toured). He is currently building another facility which will house them all, and be open to the public. There are some real gems in this collection including a 1940 Packard Limo used to transport Bogart around, an alumiunum 1929 Lincoln, Liberache's Rolls Royce, and a host of others. 

 

Hit the link below to see the collection!

 

Thanks for the photos Charles!
