Sometimes the most interesting vehicles have the least value.

that wagon was the bomb when new. I wander if it might have been an HO car. with the exhaust gone there is no tell tale sign. phs it I guess.
as for the statement " Sometimes the most interesting vehicles have the least value" I have a friend that has a very large collection and has several really rare cars (a few are my old ones) but he also has a large collection of just plain weird and the "oh wow I remember those when I was a kid" cars. maybe because I have surrounded myself with the super low production high horse stuff all my collecting years, I find myself looking at the weird and unusual stuff when I am at his place. |

Where do I start. 1 owner car? So this 70 year old guy just put 24s on his Cutlass? Then the price? Is this supposed to be $40K? For a 4 door?

I think THAT would be the explanation for the paint job.

See, and here I was figuring it was alcohol that was involved in that paint - maybe both.

Ironically thats what the body shop said when I put judge stripes on my Atoll Blue 70! My daughters loved it though!

I wonder exactly when it was that people started calling all six cylinder engines a V6...it is a cool truck though and would make for a good project vehicle. I've been watching Youtube videos from Lucky Costa (he is a co-host on Hot Rod Garage and often appears in Hot Rod and Car Craft magazines); he just put together a similar truck with a high horsepower LS engine and full QA1 suspension upgrades.

That's a nice project truck...There is a lot of restoration support out there for projects like that now also.
