Boy, and I thought mine was a real piece of **** when I got it. It's true though, in the right hands they can be saved.

"...most could be saved ..."

And they look like they'd be in my price range! Seriously, if I ever manage to get a second one, this is probably what it'll look like when it comes home.

WOW those are pretty bad pics, but I guess as long as you got the money you can do anything. Man I thought my car needed lots of work HA! My car is mint next to those!

sad but its cars like this that keep original parts relatively inexpensive and available! think of it as killing off one in order to save the masses.... ok, maybe I should just go to bed now

I've got 3 of them done...well somewhat done, 1 front flare still needs to be laminated, the others just need some finishing & sanding.

Those are indeed some sad pics. Mine needed work when I got it, but there is a point where it is too much work for me. Those are all projects that I would consider too much work for me. Someone should at least shut the hood on that one. What kind of maroon would just leave the hood up like that?
