Smile My Vista Cruiser is a Fusick Cover Girl!

Jon on the good morning thread was asking if that was my Vista on the Cover of the Fusick catalog.
I doubted it and since I don't have a copy of the latest one I had to go to their website and check for myself just in case...
My Vista Cruiser's a calendar girl and a cover girl now!
I had no idea, I think they grabbed the pic from here or through an image search.
Anybody else see their car?

Nope, I doubt they even know whose car it is.

Wow - now you're famous, as if the calendar wasn't enough...
Maybe they should pay you royalties? At least free shipping?
Oh, well - as long as they keep their customer service level high free is okay...

I assumed that was your car when I first got the catalog, I just thought you knew so I never metioned it. Hard to miss, it's got to be one of nicest Vista Cruisers in the country! Good on ya!

If I'd have thought about it, I'd have told Dave at Fusicks when I placed an order a couple weeks ago, that I knew the owner of the Blue Vista on the cover!! I never thought, darn it.

Wow Blue,

Bigjerr didn't send me an autograph when he got so famous. Would you mind autographing a Fusik's catalog and sending me one.

Sure I can sign a copy and send it Jamesbo, for five dollars plus three dollars postage then the postage to your place.
I could order 25 bucks worth of stuff I don't need so I can get one for nothing?
Better yet, I'll just borrow one from Sandy then sign it and send it to you.
If she gets one with every order she gets from Fusick's she probably has a hundred of them.

Do you want Redgoat's John Hancock on it too?
He signs everything "John Hancock", he's weird.

Wow, another famous or is it infamous member, guess it depends on who takes credit Blue or Redgoat. I don't think the rest of us can ever catch up. Well maybe Sandy can if she wins a trophy at some high falution car show

I don't want to give anyone any ideas (Sandy), but "The Prettiest One", might look good on there too!

For the money you spend there they should change the name of the place to Sandyicks.

Your car is such a hog for parts you should call her Teepoke instead of Teepo.

Thanks guys.

Teepo's Chebby stripes could be photoshopped out?
They could change the color too.

What!
It figures they would repo those parts now.
I wondered why they had my Vista on the catalog, I haven't been buying any parts lately because I don't need any so I didn't know they were doing those parts until now.
That catalog has been out for awhile and I just learn that my car is on the cover?, didn't anybody else here notice but Jon before this?, or did you think I knew and wasn't telling anybody?? (not likely if you know me)

It took me forever for me to have John/2blu442 find those fender emblems in his vast treasure house of Olds parts, he found them once and set them down in there and it took him another year to find them again.
That emblem on the tailgate had to be one of the hardest parts on the car to put on. You can just get in there behind the brace for the regulator and drop the nuts about a thousand times before they catch on the studs, and then you have to tighten them.
I'm not about to change it out now, mine just needed paint. The fender scripts have a few pits but to pull the trim on the rocker and then pull the fender out and loosen the inner fender to get in there to replace them isn't worth it.
The inner sweeps are something you couldn't get along with the bumper fillers too, mine are petrified. They should do a deal with Einstyn and stock the tailgate and rear window seals too.
Vista roof glass, spoiler and roof rack gaskets, patch panels, seat covers, and door panels would be almost too much to hope for.

Phoenix Graphix did that to my car. They made it green, however you can still see the blue in the bumper reflection.
