    I wanted to post for no other reason than possibly the longest car name in history.

    And the idea that this whale includes "sport" is hilarious. But, yeah, check the 1976 brochure.

    $25,000 seems a bit ambitious, but hey stuffs getting, still crazy out there. Interesting cream with red interior. Be interesting to see how it works out.

    This rust spot is certainly ugly and suggests problems that are not visible. There are other, lesser rust spots on the car as well. For anything close to $25K, the car needs to be perfect. This one isn't even close.

    At least he's honest enough to show the problems.

    Agreed. This really reminded me of Chicago about 1979. You could see the spot-weld rust spots with the trickle lines down the body. Usually it was about the next salt season that those plastic moldings around the opera windows would pop, or re-figure to the rust bulges. This one is starting under the vinyl top to push up the molding.
