What! Didn't you like Miss Chevy's hair. At least they didn't have bee hive hair. Guess I date my self. This explains why when I called for a date on Friday nite with the popular girls in high school they all said they had to wash their hair.

L-88'S did not come from the factory with flares. Body was the same as all others except for the hood.
