Eh... it's not as bad as most of the Ebay specials we've seen. I'm willing to bet the reserve is retartedly high, though.

I love how he fails to mention there is no handle for the passenger side.

I guess you are just gonna have to Dukes of Hazzard your way into that,

that would be sweet if he used his brain and fogged it with a better scheme. The colors would be cool for a chick, but im not digging the diagonal down the door blend, it looks bland. haha blend, bland... muhahhahahahah

he made it a big pain in the *** to go back to stock in the back... along with replacing that thing between the taillights, u'll also need a new rear bumper... speaking of that, though, i wonder how well that license plate hole came out... looks like one from a bird bumper...

I remember seeing this up for auction a little over a year ago.....was asking $7500 back then and the tranny was 'having trouble' between 2nd and 3rd. Still had the door missing, but looks like they've added another 10000 miles to the car as well... He also had a big roll bar in the back making it impossible to use the backseats.....funny how the thing still hasnt sold

i dont personally see anything wrong with it? the custom work looks pretty nice. paint looks like it fits pretty well overall (theme-wise anyway) ect. but lets bash cuz its not what we like.

i just really don't like the big "iroc-z" thing where the license plate should be... looks very tacky to me; not bashing on the whole car

It would have helped if it was at least level.

You need to look harder. In 87 the only way to get the TPI motor in a convertable was to get it with a 5 speed. In 88 and up, I think just about any engine/trans combo that was available in the hard top was offered except for the L98.

The 5 speed cars were rare, but they were rare on non-convertables too.
