And I like older Grand Prix's, so please tell me this looks more like a '70's Poncho Granville, and not a Grand Prix?

Buy it for low 20's and replace the front clip. Not a big deal.

Uh uh. He said "flairs all around done nicely."
Plus, there's a mini-spoiler glassed into the tail. And the rear quarters don't look right to me, but maybe it's his flairs throwing me off.
