    Is this a '73? It looks more like a '73 and in the color that I love. This is the first one I have ever seen other than the one in the 1973 movie I mentioned. ​
    Definitely need more pics. ​

    Could they have taken that picture from any farther away?

    Looks a bit rusty in the rear window channel even from that one pic.

    Yeah, it is definitely a 1973 and in the very rare bronze color like the wagon in the 1973 movie, Dying Room Only.

    The seller sent me more photos of the car and it looks like it is more than I would be able to put into it, even if sold mine.

    It has the 3rd seat, power gate, bumper guards and I assume A/C. That appears to be about it. It also has a couple of '71-'72 Impala hubcaps.

    Yeah, it sure is. I thought mine was rusty, but mine is nice in comparison. It is a real shame that this is the bronze color... as mentioned this is the only one I have ever seen other than the one in the movie. It is obviously a super rare color on these.

    Thanks for finding and sharing it... it is nice to see one actually existed other than the one in the movie. I would say that may even be the same car, but the car in the movie had black interior.

    Far too rough for 3K. This thing would have rust where the sun don't shine inho.
