Yes that is the previously posted pimped K-car Limo, and another picture has what I think is a pimped late 80's Dodge Spirit?

I was in Las Vegas recently, and the local car museum was displaying "a limo once owned by Frank Sinatra:" A K-car limo. Even though they presented a copy of the original title, I still have my doubts...

I work for Chrysler back then (now Fiat) and remember those limo's underpowered but built not bad for the price and niche they were made for.

[QUOTE=camerjeff;5810963]Not sure what to make of these 2 Customs, but the last one is the previously discussed 86 Chevy GTO P/U all 3 on my local C/L

Loose the fender skirts and it would make a 90% improvement.

That caddy looks nice and maybe runs like it was made on a Wednesday, but I wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole, even if it didn't have the Superfly headlights, which are hideous. With 88K miles, it's knockin on the door.

The Town Car seems like an excellant value if you can stomach the gawdy styling.

Yeah, somebody probably snatched that up. There is a Sprint engine for sale near me. I've thought of picking it up as I dig those engines but realistically I'd never get around to doing anything with it.

Right, get rid of the wheels and $30,000! And, put those quarter windows down!!!
Nothing bugs me more than a convertible with the top down and the quarter windows up (except top down and ALL the windows up).
