Here is my 78 Y88. It has no real options other than a/c and power windows and oh, the Y88 package. The wheels are not original to the car and neither is the radiator or the exhaust. As of now the rust is cut out of it and the motor is out right now with the transmission getting freshend up a little. Here it wears its original paint. Gotta go thru the whole car but it is going to be done in stages because it is a driver and i've waited a long time for a t-top car.

My 1981 Blue on Blue. Originally a 305 but now has a 400. I bought this last year in June. The White one is a 1979 that I had for years and was bits and peices of other cars. It is originally a Y84 Bandit car that had come factory with a 403 and beige/sandal interior. It now has a 455 and the car is being sold minus the motor since I bought the blue one.
