The 32' coupe's nice but I'm partial to the 32' Vicky. I like the 5 window look in a Hot Rod. For a nice open ride, the bucket 'T' can't be beat!

Didn't Bonnie and Clyde take their last ride in a 32 Vicky?
You have great day and shoot straight and may the Good Lord smile on you.

After I posted I remembered that it was a 4 door annd did not have that Deuce grill, were all four doors hinged at the rear?. I know the Vicky was a coupe and a 5 window, had one myself but mine was a 1953 hardtop but I think they did call it a Victoria????? memory fades after 56 years.

I had to go look it up, but they were all four hinged at the rear doors.
The nickname 'Vicky' is short for Victoria.

I thought they were all suicide doors. The Presidents Lincoln open car has them hinged front on front and rear on rear, that is what I must have had in mind.

Thanks everyone for your replies, I have some good stuff to practice and study. I'm sure I'll be looking for some more advise in the future. I did some shooting today and made some improvement in the surprise factor. I found some consistancy right away and was able see the recoil and feel the shot better as described....I was practicing the same thing with my .40 cal and In that relaxed state I could actually feel the torqe of the bullet leaving the barrel....Cool Feeling! And what do ya know "Bullseye" A little light might be coming on...
Thanks Everyone.

Sounds to me like you're experiencing what is known as an "Ah Ha" moment. Keep that up and all your shots will soon be congregating in the middle of the target.

There is some very good advise in here and is what I was hoping for. I got some range work to do.
