289 + C4.
Chop top.
Sidepipes with a twist.
Needs flares or narrower wheels, imho, otherwise it looks pretty good.
$29,500.
In Mass.

The windscreen and top don't look bad but those exhaust pipes, double leather bonnet straps, racing stripes, fake coves and auto trans just don't do it. should have gone with a tribute rally car look with SS vents covering the side pipes. I had a 67 AH 3000 and it went pretty good with the stock L6 and 2 inch SUs. I'm no purist but you gotta go with one theme not mix and match. Here's my 80 Spit with a retro sixties early seventies look.

I was wondering how I was going to get headers in mine!
