I wouldn't even give a quarter of what he's asking for an unmolested '77 Corvette with 33K. It was about the lowest point of underhood performance in the history of Vettes.

yeah that the way to spend a lot of $$$ to make your car worth 1/2 as much, to gain 12MPG on a car you probably drive less than 1000 miles a year. Genius!!!!

He dodged a bullet.
301 + high rpm nitrous = holes in the oil pan.

I was going to ask what kind of person spends $45,000 building a clone and can't come up with another $400 for an endura bumper...but then I figured it out; The same kind of person that decides that a two door post would make a good clone for something that only came in a hardtop.

If it looked like an Endura delete 1968 post GTO (no Judge stuff either) that car would be kinda neat in that color... but it is a 69.

Greg, obviously he wasn't a Pontiac guy. Has no clue, just stupid inside and out.

It's not a bad job. The paint and interior, engine compartment, everything looks nice. The question is; 'WHY'?
