Default I just lost my lunch!

I warn you now do not visit the below link if you just had something to eat.
I must say that this is as depressing as seeing a vette after being totaled.

It makes the trailers in the background almost seem logical. Uggg A pickup truck Vette!

What a shame. Somewhere under all that crap is a '72 coupe. :confused:

I have a hard time believing that this is a 72! :eek: Every body panel is from a 74 or later, including the vents, front fenders, etc. It doesn't even have the switch for the alarm in the right spot. Either somebody went to a great deal of trouble to modify ALL of the body panels or perhaps that VIN tag doesn' belong to the car.
