Back in the day, it was probably viewed as a pretty cool car. Things have a way of changing.

This what you get when corvettes mixed with drugs ans the 1970's. JUST FYI, people's idea of customizing today's cars will get the same reaction in 40 years (i.e. big wheels, skinney tires, candy paint, and the ridiculous idea of blacking out everything on a black car)
