Cool idea but the paint is rippled and overshot.

Hey o6, What kind of paint did you use on the chrome parts? I think it's good for a young guy like you to have a dream car. I hope that you get a real one some day soon. Don't stop dreaming.

I would hope his dream car isn't an HHR. I love my HHR but I would hardly consider it a dream car. When I was his age I though I was going to have so many cool cars for my first car and I ended up with an '89 Grand Am LE. I hope you end up with an HHR because it will be 1000% better than my first car. My first car was almost a near mint blue '65 Galaxy 500 but the guy kept dicking me around because he didn't really want to sell it. His wife was making him sell it because he had like 5 classics plus a truck and a van.

My first car was a '68 Ford Galaxy 500 that was a turquoise color. My brother totaled it and then got a mint green Maverick.

Capt. At 16, it probably is his dream car because he could never afford the payments unless his mom and dad can fork out that kind of money. My first car was a 49 fleetwood Cheverolet with a vacume shift and fender skirts. The color was a light green.

You would like to think that a "dream car" would be defined differently by those dreaming? My first car, and it was a "dream car", because I never dreamed I could buy one was a 63 2dr. Chevy Biscayne I bought for $250.00 from a farmer in Great Falls, MT in 1978. If his choice of a dream car is an HHR, why is that so bad? Thank goodness not everyone thinks alike!
