It depends on where the gun is pointed

I think it would score HIGH in the interior section of the judging? Only deduction may be the Hurst shifter!!!!!!!

I wasn't ever convinced that I had to have one, back in the day.

Good to know that my position hasn't changed over the years but to each, their own.

There have been four offers so far. All were declined. How much you think this car should sell for?

Nothing. Why would an NCRS member even try it?

With the Eckler's wagon conversion, big flairs, headlights in the grill and Keystone mags, that thing is definitely "Old School". Now if you just replaced the 572 and 5 speed, with a tunnel ram 427 and a "Rock Crusher", and those pictures pictures could be from 1975!

The stock antenna on the rear fender, and a radio block off plate on the center gauge cluster, does have me a little curious.

Not my cup of tea but it does look like someone put some time and effort into it.

At least you'd have somewhere to put the T-tops!

How can he see past that hood? The stock L88 is hard to see around, let alone adding another 6 inches!
