71 Safari

Here's the '71 Safari that I got parts off of earlier this year.

We've seen it before, haven't we?

 

Yeah, it was a different color at that time. It's been spray painted now and stripped of most of the parts.

I tried to upload a photo of it before I stripped it but it's not working. It was a greenish color with woodgrain.

 

The 71 in its current state. No interior and the floors have rust on them (though I don't know how rusted they are form pics.)

 

Unfortunately I think this one is destined either for the derby or the crusher.

 

Yeah, the reason I picked all the parts of it is because the guy bought it to derby. He's a big derby guy and has a few other cars he and some buds are going to derby as well.

 

I still can't believe any derbying sanctioning body hasn't outlawed these things yet, or even the big 70's Mopars with their shocker bumpers.

 

Poor Safari!

 

Yeah, rough but still could have been saved. Plenty good canvas to make it what you want. Unfortunately some get a number on the side of them.
