Seeing this makes my BP go through the roof. According to the ad, a survivor taken out of a 30 year garage sleep, but could they keep it stock? No way - has to be donked 2016, and ruined IMHO. http://detroit.craigslist.org/wyn/cto/5624966288.html
Even for me, an avowed Ford lover, that's @$$. As in, shove it sideways up the dumb fawk's, for making it not original anymore, and no real chance to show it as a survivor car.
It wasn't a real survivor and they didn't "donk it" recently. If you read the ad it says it was a "showcar" from the 80's, so all that work was done long ago. Even back then it was pretty hokey, just proves once again that you can never go wrong staying stock.
This was done over 30 years ago, gang, read the ad. I think it's pretty damn cool, myself! It could be FAR worse - someone could've modded the suspension and stuck 28s under it and painted it in McDonald's colors...or Skittles!
At least most of the body mods could be undone but please don't paint it McD colors or John Deere Green.
The more I see this car the more I like it. Looks much better without the headlight covers. I'd probably take the blower off and sell it and change the wire wheels to something else. Overall it is a pretty clean and they didn't go overboard on the 80's graphics with the paint. That said I don't think he is going to get his $14k asking price. There are probably very few people who think this car is perfect as-is and even fewer with the money to buy it.
