Original Owner - Well Taken Care Of

December 10, 2017

By WASchooling from Rancho Cucuamonga, CA

Owns this car

This car was a weekender, so not a lot of miles on in for a car that's been owned since 1979. All original, AC duct work, very minor paint touch ups, and a little interior work will get it back to near showroom condition.

one of the most reliable car i own.

June 2, 2017

By cliffhanger67 from california

Owns this car

this car is the epitome of looks in it's era. the hood bird and low body wide stance, the sound of the v8 motor pounding, it's shape all contributes to a car that represents the pony cars. yes, it did not start it but is sure made a mark in this car segment. even today, it's still a head turner. unfortunately, i have to sell it as i am getting too old to care for it. it will be no justice to let it anguish in my garage.
