    Not that I care, but the first car/abomination is a 94/95 Cougar. That '64 Buick looks nice. That is one of the better jobs I've seen of matching up the rooflines on a two door conversion.

    The -88 LeSabre is way too overpriced. Its heavily used and the interior needs a full overhaul. No pictures of engine bay or undercarriage.

    Sure 3K and its a good price. But it will be a lot of work to get it good again. And it is hard to find parts. They seem all have vanished into the big dark beyond...

    1998 Cougar according to the paperwork in photo 8, but still an abomination nonetheless.

    No doubt that Cougar woodie is a high dollar build with many man hours put into it. Even though I agree with Kevin that it is an abomination in my eyes, it's still a high dollar build.

    So with all that money invested, you can't find a better damn way to install and l abel the damn switches? Idiots.

    Yeah I think I would try to memorize where on, off is and tear the damn sticker off. Also on the Buick I think of it were $3 Gs., agreed Twohundred. It Probably ok at that price. Clean the hell out it and just drive and enjoy.

    There wasn't a 1998 Cougar (in the US). The front wheel drive abortion that picked up the nameplate didn't start until the 1999 MY. The underhood shots show a 94/95 engine.

    Figures. In addition to building abominations, they are liars too. ;)

    It's all about taste I suppose. I'd rather have the Barris Kustom over some of the other wagons that are on that list.

    However, the one I would forsake all others for is this baby right here:

    Maybe I'm odd but I like the Rambler although I would have preferred a nice little 4 or 6 instead of the GM 8.
