you guys are missing the real story here. Why would a washington car (isn't that what the Wa stand for in the listing?) be listed in Las Vegas craigs list?

I saw this at local car show a couple of years ago in the Seattle area. Reminded me of the days when guys wearing white a belt and shoes thought they looked good. And no, the car didn't get a trophy.

There were alot of these made in the late 70's, called them the vette station wagon. I know of a guy here in Phoenix who was converting them, usuallY 68-73. Most were converted back when the prices started going up, or just scrapped. There was a time, when no one thought the C3's would ever be worth anything. The next fad was the "Miami Vice" Daytona kit, usually on 74-81's. These still pop up now and then, in fact there was one on Phoenix Craigs list a few days ago.

There used to be one of those running around Port Arthur TX a few years ago. It was ugly then and is still ugly now. Definitely not a one of a kind. Also there was a Ferrari conversion for sale here in Austin a few months ago.
