I'd love to have that one. ^^
Yeah, looks like maybe the ps fender may have had a repaint but nothing else. 318 car probably?

Wouldn't mind having it myself.
Hope so with those anemic tires.

Took the 77 to Lowes today, and then ran some various errands. Put about 55 miles on it this morning.

I can't confirm it's a driver but I literally hadn't seen one of these in decades until I pulled along side this trailer last week:

I didn't have a camera handy, but I saw a very nice late 1970s Chevy 2-dr yesterday in Raleigh. I'm not sure if it was a Malibu, but it was the same body style as the 1978-1980 Lemans. I was sitting at a stop light and I heard a rumble come up behind me. I looked in my rear view mirror and saw a Burgundy Chevy. When the light changed, I was slow to leave the light and it passed me. It was being driven by an older woman who appeared to be in her 60s. Then I heard it, she shifted gears. It was a manual. Car was super clean, had some Chevy Rally wheels, and sounded good. She turned at the next street. Car was super clean.

It not all that vintage, but something pretty unusual...a Zimmer Golden Spirit neoclassic, based on an S197 Ford Mustang. I saw it in a McDonalds parking lot last week - not the sort of thing you normally see driving around in Minnesota in January.

I'd drive a Tempest or Lemans convertible every day if I could find one with the options I wanted.
