I like the last pic, same shot as in the 68 greats brochure,, the guy was probably mimicking that photo. I think the brochure photo was actually in the 350 HO LeMans section.

I worked for a guy in a body shop when I was a young man, and he was a pretty rough guy. When someone would bring a car back complaining about gaps being too tight or wide, he would jerk the cigarette he was smoking out of his mouth and run the filter end through the body gap and tell them that the gap was the same as a cigarette filter and the customer would not question him anymore and drive off afraid he was going to beat their a--! I would just shake my head because the filter would slide through the big gaps and compress in the narrow gaps!

I like the sweep of the chrome trim on the bucket. We are so used to seeing strato-buckets we forget just how sharp those seats looked; so slim and sleek, make regular buckets look like taxi cab benches saw cut to narrower width.

Endura fit would be frowned on in our crowd. Look how those 14" tires fill the openings. Great pics!
DS headlight cover sagging a bit. We know how to fix that.

If you listen carefully you can hear it rusting ;-) Wonder what became of it.
Notice that all the problems relate to the left front, (left parking light looks bent, left hidaway and left bumper to fender fitment, left front corner of hood), maybe it got pranged? Pictures could be after bodyshop?
