Beautiful pictures, Rob, indeed!
Your 'wifey' looks very classy with her scarf, very contemporary - almost a bit 'Audrey Hepburn'-like. ;D ;D 8)
That's how the more adult wifes did that in the old days when our cars were young! 8)
Nowadays a very rare sight... most more modern wifes are too picky or prissy for this kind of top-down driving without wind deflector or so. They're used to much more modern air-conditioned car stuff with high belt-line and integrated wind-stoppers.... ??? ::)
In contrast, your wife is not the sort of very passive passenger but really seems to enjoy driving the Pagoda. :D
Very well!
Oh my, what do I remember the view onto the Manhattan-like silhouette of downtown Seattle from the other side of the pond (Pudget Sound). ;)
Was there with the fellow students quite often during my short-term visiting scholar stay in Seattle back in 1995. ;)
That's where I got my Pagoda from, brought it back 'with me' from Seattle.
George, the pre-owner surely did not pass the Harbor Avenue with 'my' car; he put it back in storage when he obtained the car back in 1982.
But maybe Darla did, the pre-preowner. 8)
Pure speculation though whether she did top-down driving along Harbor Avenue in the same stylish way wearing a scarf like your wife(y) does.... ;) :D 8)
Great pictures!
Best,
Achim

Thanks Achim!
Thanks also to this very helpful message board for getting the car running really really good!
Wife definitely is into scarves. Has a closet full of them! She has a pet peave of hair flying in her eyes, so I get the need for scarves. Except on the freeway, she prefers the wind deflector down! I concur!

It looks like you have a two tone pagoda... is the hard top same colour as the hub caps? 050G black and 044G white?
Do you have any other pics you could share? I'm thinking about a car with these colours... would love to see a few more images.

Ya, black top and wheels offer great contrast
