I think he means one of those
Bubbletop was '62 IIRC.
Personally I'd go for a '62 Pontiac Bubbletop Catalina, much rarer and more interesting than the Chev.
EDIT: '61 aswell judging by that ^.
59-61 were the traditional "bubble tops"
62-64 are the same shape, not often referred to as bubbletop in 2 door pillarless
Oldsmobile Toronado, or Buick Riviera.
"Where can we get hold of a Vincent Black Shadow?" "Whats that?" "A fantastic bike," I said.

exactly!
actually gammaboy has the right idea- back in the day I went for a cruise in Tex's Buick Riviera around sydney- it was teh pimpin bomb baby... 8 litres of V8 goodness, wide, low and slow, with big lurchy funny donuts...
see you on the dark side of the moon
1998 VT projectfckinwhooshRallyodore-unfinished shed ornament
2006 D40 STX navara TD of 160 km/hr towing
1986 AE82 Corolla 20valve track hack-cannot kill it with fire
'60s Riviera = hotness
'70s Riviera = gaids
I whole heartedly support the acquisition of said 8L V8 engine.

How does that happen anyway? Would a customs/importation guy pick '36 brakes over '34? Surely they are ignorant enough that you could bring in stuff that's been discreetly modified.
'70 Riviera GS with the Stage 1 455 = Win.
But a '70 Skylark GSX with a Stage 2 455 would be better.
I'm not 100% sure, but it's probably something like a '34 has cable operated brakes and a '36 has Hydraulic.
64 Compact Fairlane 2 door?
64 Galaxie Fastback?
68 Fairlane Torino?
None of the cars anyone has suggested fit the 2-3k price range.

3k is a ballpark really, ... we have to save to go to the wedding first, .. then anything on top of that we can put towards a car.
Doesnt have to be "cool" as such, but just very american, for shits n giggles and if we can make a profit by bringing back something then we will try.
I think the only requirement is that it has to get Rorge and I to the wedding ... I think that in itself will be an issue
