    That price is incredible to me.

    Yes, the miles are super low, but only modestly optioned and that 305 V8 is just not enough engine for his 4000 pound car.

    Great color combo, though.

    Factory or not, the Dash color would have left me out.

    Beautiful car otherwise.

    I think the dash is a 1976 GM color.

    Or maybe that green was correct for 1977.

    These never really got my juices flowing. When I was growing up it seemed that they were just cheap used cars, ones that were often driven by unsavory types.
    I have always liked the original and the examples from the 80's, but not these.

    That being said, I really like this one! The color combo is great, especially with that half vinyl top and the white interior.
    I agree that the green dash is odd and seems out of place. But other than that it's a neat car.

    Much preferred the early "round headlights" versions myself. Lived in Maryland when these were popular and it seemed like the guys with mullets were just crazy about them once they reached cheap used car status.
