I'm sure somebody in the world will look at the pics and start drooling. I have to say that somebody ain't me!
I'm not real familiar with these. Is it fixable, with an original hood, bumper and some new dual exhaust? :confused:
Yeah, it is fixable. Don't know how hard the parts might be to locate but with the right hood and bumper, the exhaust, it might be a decent beater/driver. Who knows what other sins are hidden within but from the current look it is save-able. I've seen worse done to cars and with a few weekend of dedicated effort they turn in to nice drivers. And often for not a lot of money.
I looks like it could be saved. It has potential. That hood scoop is a no go for me. I like the tinted back windows. The flat black is blah. Yes a good hood and bumper would be nice and a shiny black paint job. Then it would look like a worth while cruiser.
